The final book of a trilogy about 3 brothers, all with different fathers but the same mother, who was once a courtesan. I really liked all of them, but this one most of all. I recommend reading the whole trilogy in order, to follow the plot complications. The same group of characters reappear in each book. The setup of a series about a group of siblings, some illegitimate and some not, has been done before, but there were some unexpected twists and turns, and some lovely well written prose. This author keeps improving as she goes along. One of her habits seems to be that we know the hero's backstory, but we don't really know who the heroine is and her complete history until the end; the same technique was used in the previous book, "To Save The Devil". I really enjoyed the part when the elderly duchess, who is married to the villain of the story, finally stands up to him. The hero and heroine are both very young, but have both been through a lot of experiences that make them much wiser than their years, so their actions were believable to me. My only quibble was the ending which seemed a little too fairytale-ish. Just a HEA for a couple of people in love would have sufficed! 4 stars.
