I love this book–I think it’s one of Carlyle’s best and that is high praise indeed! In our DIK review, our review said:

Zoë Armstrong is illegitimate, beautiful, more than a little bit spoiled by her doting father, and a flirt. However, when a flirtation with a childhood friend goes too far and they’re caught in a compromising position, Zoë is faced with marriage. Neither she nor Robin want to get married, but Zoë is determined to make him happy, considering she feels that she has ruined his life by preventing him from being with the one he loves. To avoid scandal, she and her family go to the country with Robin’s family before announcing the engagement.

In the background, though, is Robin’s older brother, Stuart, Marquess of Mercer. For Zoë’s whole life, it was Mercer rescuing her and Robin from their escapades, Mercer protecting her from scandal, Mercer watching over her. However, what Zoë always interpreted as disapproval and frustration was, in fact, Mercer’s repressed desire for her. Now they are under one roof, getting to know each other, and coming to grips with the impending marriage of two unwilling partners. When tragedy strikes, though, duty, promises, guilt, and devotion put Zoë and Mercer’s growing romance to the test.

Liz Carlyle is a wonderful storyteller. She does a fabulous job of sculpting and developing characters slowly, so that working out who, exactly, Mercer and Zoë are is a long and fascinating process. Both of them, and a number of the side characters, are all complex and interesting people, and it was a delight getting to know them through this book.

Readers love this historical romance. (You can read our review here.) Here’s the blurb:

While most young ladies attend balls and hunt for husbands, Ophelia Hardwick has spent the last ten years in disguise. As the land steward for the Earl of Carlyle, she’s found safety from the uncle determined to kill her and freedoms a lady could only dream of. Ophelia’s situation would be perfect—if only she wasn’t hopelessly attracted to her employer.

Calvin, Earl of Carlyle, is determined to see his sister married this season. And he’ll do it with the help of his trusted right-hand man. But when he finds out Ophelia’s secret, and that her life is in danger, his priorities change. Their attraction is passionate, all-consuming, and if they aren’t careful, it could turn downright deadly—for both of them.

We enjoyed this romantic suspense. In our review, we wrote:

Broadway star Leigh Kendall wakes up in a hospital room in upstate New York. She’d been on her way to join her husband Logan Manning at the secluded Catskills hideaway he’d picked out, but the site’s remoteness and a blizzard caused Leigh to lose her way. Rear-ended by another car, she crashed through a guardrail and plunged down a steep hillside. It’s a miracle that anybody rescued her – or was it? Now, there’s no trace of her rescuer, or her husband, and Leigh is growing more and more frantic.

Assigned to the high-profile case, newbie detective Samantha Littleton is eager to prove herself to her colleagues. As the investigation into Logan’s disappearance focuses on Leigh, the police turn up evidence that the perfection of her marriage may be an illusion. The others close in on Leigh, ready to pressure her into admitting that she had a good reason to be rid of her husband, but Sam listens to her gut and refuses to believe the actress had anything to do with Logan’s disappearance. Her interest shifts to Michael Valente, a notorious businessman who has a history of run-ins with law enforcement; Valente’s got a peripheral connection to Logan’s latest land-development project. The small task force, headed by legendary detective Mitchell McCord, hones in on Valente. Sam tries very hard to keep her attention on the case and find out everything she can about Michael Valente, but more and more she discovers herself trying to figure out just what make Lieutenant McCord tick.

Then a body turns up and things get really interesting.

The suspense worked for me. I didn’t guess who the villain was until well past the halfway point, always a good thing; there were clues to the perpetrator’s identity, but nothing was heavy-handed, and there were even a couple of enjoyable blind alleys to stumble down. McNaught’s abilities in setting a scene and describing it vividly are in ample evidence throughout the book, and her ear for believable, natural-sounding dialogue is one of the best in the genre. She’s got a real skill for developing and maintaining great sexual tension; there’s this one scene in a stairwell that…well, read it and see for yourself. And the love scene (only one), while merely warm, gets pretty darn warm.

Readers give this recent release a lot of love. Here’s the blurb:

It’s set to be the perfect wedding – till the chauffeur is asked to keep driving the bride round the church. This wedding is not going as planned.

Lottie is a guest at the wedding when she sees Max for the first time in fifteen years. No kiss since has matched their last kiss together. They were on the brink of a beautiful love story. Then something shocking happened that tore them apart. Now here he is, handsome as ever, teasing Lottie in the old way – and that tingling electric attraction is back. But Max is out of bounds.

Ruby has been the perfect vicar’s wife. But when she finds out the truth about her husband Peter, outrage and disbelief drive her to act impulsively, without a thought for the consequences. And nothing will ever be the same again.

There will be a wedding of the year – but maybe not yet. When love is in the air, anything can happen . . .
