About this ebook
"Sensuous foreplay heats up the pages but never overtakes the captivating story or the charming, witty characters."—Publishers Weekly
Handsome, silver-tongued Lord Randall doesn't always get along with his bank partner, the financially brilliant Isabella St. Vincent. When their two-faced partner commits fraud and runs, Randall and Isabella pursue, finding wicked adventure and love along the way.
Posing as anarray of far-fetched characters and pursued by crooked police and a powerful railroad baron, the Randall and Isabella discover the only person they can trust with their lives—and their love—is one another.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Witty, romantic and so enjoyable!When our current stock of Victorian romance writers truly remembered the existence of Mary Wolstencroft a whole new genre of heroine came into being. The Bluestocking, she's formidable, generally portrayed as women's rights explorers, often overlooked or social inept. Women that today's women can thank as part of the progress to enfranchment, the recognition of their abilities and their freedoms. Not only that, but they present an excellent opening for writers to incorporate intrigue, humour and indepth social commentary. And that's just what Susanna Ives has given us. She's given us Isabella St. Vincent. Isabella is a gem. She has an off beat presence that wonderfully combines the different with the interesting. She is an intellect who wants to embrace her womanhood. The how of doing that is the hard part. I laughed at the language Isabella uses, thank you to Aunt Judith, for her womanly parts. I loved her ability to work out mathematical odds and problems. I loved that her abilities helped countless numbers of women to turn their lives around. If only Isabella could turn her personal relationships around!Her childhood arch enemy is Lord Randall but in their pursuit of matters that touch the very foundations of their joint banking interests, that childhood frisson between them takes on a life of its own, down paths neither has contemplated. A witty, somewhat different and most enjoyable read!A NetGalley ARC
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very enjoyable, fresh and gripping.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I had a difficult time getting into this story, and had to put it down...that is why my rating is so low. I just couldn't connect with the story or the characters or the set up...I gave it a 100 pages, and then set it aside. There are many other books I want to read, and I just didn't want to waste my time with a book I wasn't sure I would even like reading. I felt very confused with this one, and just couldn't get a handle on it. I do plan on reading the first book, since that one has some pretty good ratings and reviews.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A madcap, slapstick, over-the-top comedy in the tradition of It Happened One Night. I read the heroine as having high-functioning autism.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Isabella St Vincent inherited a bank from her father and runs it well with Lord Randall mostly as a figurehead. But when she discovers an irregularity this could affect both their lives. They've known each other from when they were young and they are quite opposite. They are both restless with their lives and want something more they have to be descrete while investigating so they take on personas and they begin to see new things in each other. It was madcap and fun and I really enjoyed it, it led to a few late reading nights. It was fun and I would read more by this author.
