There seem to be lots of purple covers lately and I, for one, am liking them. Of course, taking a look at the cover, there's lots more to feast one's eyes on besides the color!
Declan O’Connor, Earl of Donnelly, arrives at Hadley Green to find that the new countess of Ashwood is actually an impostor - a woman he knows quite well from back in the day in Ireland.
Snappy repartee keeps this fun story zipping right along from start to finish. The heroine is winningly charming and the hero is easy to fall in love with.
The back story centers on the mystery surrounding the execution of a man for the theft of the Countess of Ashwood's historic jewels.London uses it to set up an intriguing twist at the end of The Year of Living Scandalously that made me want to run out and buy the next book in the series.
That's where the bad news comes in.
According to London (per her website), the sequel - The Secrets of Hadley Green - will not be out until February of 2012. That's more than a year from now. London says the long wait was unforeseen when she wrote the ending to The Year of Living Scandalously.
Disappointing yes, but I still plan to be among the first to read The Secrets of Hadley Green. (I just hope I can remember the story!)
And now for the shameless plug...
