Book Description:
Lady Ivy Wentworth is reluctantly reunited with her former lover, Garrett Burke, as the two join forces to search for some missing jewels and find themselves re-igniting the fires of their passion.

From bed partners . . .

Two years ago, while on assignment for the Crown, darkly handsome Garrett Burke left Lady Ivy Wentworth sleeping naked in his bed as he went in search of the missing Martello diamonds. After apprehending the dastardly thief, he intended to spend the rest of his life in the arms of the auburn-haired beauty. But when the case came to a shocking and dangerous end, Garrett was certain he'd been betrayed . . .

To partners in crime

Ivy once loved Garrett with a virtuous heart, but these days she can barely stand him. Arriving at a deserted estate on a mysterious errand, she never expected to see him again, nor feel the same ecstasy she once did at his touch. Now, joined with him in the search for the legendary jewels, she is willing to risk everything. Everything, that is, except her heart . . .

You will revisit Winters Garden (a wonderful romance, which I highly recommend ), will see how the heroine and hero ended up from that book..... As for this book, after the first chapter the book just went down hill. Second chance love story is one of my fav plot device, but this book is too dry and boring.

However, I could not finish it, so maybe the book becomes miraculously spectacular...somehow...way, way later?...

A couple of notches above the average post-Regency romances. The storyline has a good, intriguing mystery, with twists & turns & surprizes. The characters are believeable, and the romance is lovely, with a happy ending that isn't two sappy. Enjoy.
