"Not one of my favs. I didn’t even particularly like either of the two main characters in this for at least the first 200 pages. I got with the plot eventually but nearly didn’t finish it, just couldn’t find either of them credible. "

“With each tale of this series, Laurens reaches higher, perfectly merging excitement, suspense and sizzling passion. She knows how to set fire to the pages with a nonstop romance, placing her at the top of many readers’ lists.”
— RT Book Reviews“A Fine Passion…contains all of the aspects that we require in a top-notch historical romance—and then provides even more substance. The characters linger long after the final page is reached and may prove to be the epitome of hero and heroine in this genre.”
— A Romance Review" I loved this - the mystery itself was great, but I really enjoyed all the "games" to be played within the British high-society! Very entertaining! "
— Annette, 2/18/2014" I read this very quickly in the hopes that it would get more interesting but I was sorely disappointed - there are good parts in the book but those are far and few in between. Overall, it was average. "
— Anita, 2/3/2014" Lebih suka Jack ini daripada Captain Jack! Hahaha. Clarice juga oke, karena dia salah satu orang yang tau siapa sebenarnya Dalziel. "
— Dina, 2/1/2014" A fun, trashy romance about a meeting of equals (a strong woman and man) with a spy story. Good escape reading. "
— Carla, 1/27/2014" Now I understand why, in Royce's story, Clarice is seen as a master at manipulating the opinion of the ton. Likable characters. Nothing stunning but a pleasant enough read. "
