Mina's well-ordered life is thrown into disarray when her father drops a bombshell on his deathbed: She has a brother she never knew of. Not only that, he is on his way to rescue her from the collapse of their school under a mountain of debts.

A wild journey across country later, Mina finds herself thrown at the feet of the brutish William Nye, prize-fighter and owner of a disreputable inn, The Merry Harlot. Respectable Mina is appalled to find herself obliged to wed this surly stranger!

Forced to draw on reserves of inner strength she never knew she possessed, Mina uncovers perilous secrets and bravely carves herself a new life at the side of this man, as she proves herself a more than worthy partner for the prize-fighter.

Contains mature themes.

The story is good. It has intrigue, romance, and a little humor. There is spice, but it's not a lot. I struggled with the narrator at first, but I got used to her. I enjoyed it.

I wish there would've been more scenes between the MC and the FMC. Overall, I liked the story, but I also would've liked to see things from the MC's point of view. I like this narrator more than Alice Coldbreath's other books. 3.5 stars

This is the 1st book I've read by this author and definitely not the last!! The writing is superb! Not only do the characters come alive and practically jump off the page but the entire story is described so vividly I felt transported.
And the romance... oh my the romance, <get me to a fainting couch>. I cute myself smiling and referring to this brutish man's clumsy advances as cute and sweet and very very hot!! In many other romance novels the sexy scenes can be so crude it makes the reader uncomfortable. But these intimate moments are real, tantizing, seductive, sensual, and funny all at the same time. Most will make you squirm!

The back story is interwoven with an odd yet unique connection between characters. I became so engrossed in the narration that at times I could smell the sour stale beer of the tavern, see the opulence of the brother's manor house and hear the the din of the crowds.

It is simply a must read for all historical romance fans! Can't wait for the next in the series!

SWOON! Get author!!

I really enjoyed this story but the plot is very different. It was not about the aristocracy; it was about plain old people. And it was very good. In fact, it could have been a little longer although I usually complain about the stories being too long so maybe this was just right. Narrator was good, also.
