When a spymaster proposes marriage as a cover, it might be madness for a lady to indulge in...

Bestselling author Jane Feather beguiles with this sparkling story of the alluring secrets hidden behind the elegance of Regency London, when a lovely young woman discovers the danger...and delight...of risking everything for love.

Aurelia Farnham believes she is happy living in London's stylish Cavendish Square. But with her friends Livia and Cornelia both married now, Aurelia is the only one still husbandless, and sometimes she longs for more. Then Colonel Sir Greville Falconer storms into her life, delivering a letter from her late husband, a war hero, which reveals he was a spy; the colonel's spy. Now Greville needs Aurelia to continue the patriotic mission and partner him as he exposes a ring of Spanish spies who have infiltrated London society.

The attentions of the charismatic Greville excite Aurelia as his mock courtship blurs the line between pretense and reality. When the simmering attraction between them ignites into passion and the danger of Aurelia's double life escalates, Greville insists on marriage as the best way to protect her. Now Aurelia realizes she has more than shadowy antagonists to fear, for she's lost her heart to a dashing spymaster who will one day slip away as suddenly as he appeared....

Very Funny! Love Jane Feather!

Livia Lacey came to the house she inherited in London's Cavendish Square with her two friends, Lady Cornelia Dagenham and Lady Aurelia Farnham, to experience the excitement of city life. With Cornelia now happily married, Livia and Aurelia are on their own. But dashing Prince Alex Prokov, a newcomer to London, seems enchanted by Liv the moment they meet. Disarmed by the prince's determined pursuit of her, his exuberant joy of living, and the desires he awakens in her, Liv agrees to marry him.

But while night is a time for passionate embraces, Liv discovers that her irresistible husband can be as autocratic as he is extravagantly generous. While Alex balks at Liv's independent ways, he refuses to explain his own comings and goings. When Liv learns one of Alex's secrets she only loves him more. But when she learns the other secret, will she feel wickedly betrayed?

Very funny & Witty.

Love Jane Feather!

Bestselling author Jane Feather brings to life the glamour, sophistication, and intrigue of Regency-era London in this captivating novel of unexpected passions and dangerous secrets.

Pooling their meager resources, Lady Cornelia Dagenham, her sister-in-law Aurelia, and their friend Liv Lacey arrive in London's Cavendish Square to spend a month at the home Liv has just inherited. But why anyone would show a fervent interest in purchasing the rundown property -- particularly the arrogant Viscount Bonham, who clearly could afford the finest of homes -- is a puzzle to Cornelia. His charms are undeniable, though -- and Cornelia finds her resistance to this mysterious stranger falling away...as a sparking passion clouds her view.

But their affair may place her and her friends in danger as Harry Bonham sweeps her into the sparkling whirl of high society. Leading a double life as a code breaker for the Crown, Harry is a man of many secrets. Is it Cornelia whom he truly desires, or something hidden in the house on Cavendish Square

Night of Conquest

With his tawny mane, battle-hewn brawn, and ferocious roar, Angus "The Lion" MacDonald is the most fearsome warrior Lady Gwendolen has ever seen—and she is his most glorious conquest. Captured in a surprise attack on her father's castle, Gwendolen is now forced to share her bed with the man who defeated her clan. But, in spite of Angus's overpowering charms, she refuses to surrender her innocence without a fight.

Prisoner of Passion

With her stunning beauty, bold defiance, and brazen smile, Gwendolen is the most infuriating woman Angus has ever known—and the most intoxicating. Forcing her to become his bride will unite their two clans. But conquering Gwendolen's heart will take all his skills as a lover. Night after night, his touch sets her on fire. Kiss after kiss, his hunger fuels her passion. But, as Gwendolen's body betrays her growing love for Angus, a secret enemy plots to betray them both.

The Enemy in Her Bed

Lady Amelia Sutherland would rather die than surrender to a man like Duncan MacLean. He is the fiercest warrior of his clan—her people's sworn enemy—and tonight he is standing over her bed. Eyes blazing, muscles taut, and battle axe gleaming, MacLean has come to kill Amelia's fiancé. But once he sees the lovely, innocent Amelia, he decides to take her instead.

The Lover in His Arms

Stealing the young bride-to-be is the perfect revenge against the man who murdered Duncan's one true love. But Lady Amelia turns out to be more than a pawn of vengeance and war. This brave, beautiful woman touches something deep in Duncan's soul that is even more powerful than a warrior's fury. But when Amelia begins to fall in love with her captor—and surrenders in his arms—the real battle begins

In Love and War The fierce and powerful Laird of War, Lachlan MacDonald has conquered so many men on the battlefield—and so many women in the bedroom—that he is virtually undefeated. But one unlucky tryst with a seductive witch has cursed him forever. Now, any women he makes love to will be doomed for eternity.

In Danger and Desire Lady Catherine is a beautiful lass of elite origin—or so she is told. Suffering from amnesia, she is desperate to find the truth about who she really is...or, at the very least, meet someone who inspires an intense memory or emotion. When she first lays eyes on Lachlan MacDonald, Catherine has a sixth sense that he holds the key that will unlock her past—and maybe even her heart. But how could she know that the passion she ignites in this lusty warrior's heart could consume—and destroy—them both?

 LOVE Donna Fletcher! Ill forever buy very book she writes :)

Bryce & Charlotte 

Love the mischief and madness and mayhem. Love their dynamics, how they sort out problems and handle conflict.

Bryce reminds me of an boyfriend I once had. :/ Imagine that! So I can't give a good character review on him Sorry about that. There are traits he has that are worth mentioning though: Gentle, tough, caring, sweet, brave, courageous, formidable, reliable, fierce, passionate & protective. Wish I never happened upon the connection between his character and my ex, would have loved to get to know Bryce better. 

Fearsome Charlotte is one tough cookie! Stubborn, Opinionated, Forever Curious, Chatty, extremely intelligent, Bold, Daring, Obstinate & Witty. Born fighter, Fierce, Loyal, Determined, Courageous Warrior. All in all, a force to be reckoned with! 

I love the theme, plot, setting, writing style and Characters of this series. I would have liked to still have an emotional connection with the previous two couples. I feel they were almost avoided in this book. Mara and Carmag also had an evident bypass in this novel. Hope the reason for this becomes clear n the next and last book :( so sad to finish a series!

LOVE LOVE LOVE Donna Fletcher! Always a must read Author

Reeve & Tara
I love the plot, setting and characters. Love the dynamics of the McAlpin Brothers, funloving, teasing, chivalrous, determined, serious, honorable and they all seem delectable :)

I need to mention the wonderful mommy Mara again. Getting to know her boys makes me see what a wonderful influence she has had on her boys and how she shaped the perfect men I would marry :)
I am going to keep listing their qualities and they all have the same, but its so rare these days i really need to keep listing them.

Reeve is my favourite brother so far. ;) He is fun, teasing, passionate, friendly, caring, strong, funny, determined and always has a smile on his face - ooh there are so many qualities, I would deffinately chose this brother.

Tara has the strongest will power i have ever seen. Boy i would have folded a long time ago with a guy like that!! Jeepers. One tough cookie. Love her innocence and fun loving nature, the caution had me frustrated at times. :)

I might be wrong but my money is on Duncan being the Rightful King of Scotland, allthough I love love love me some Reeve. :) The Saga Continues

Love Love Love Donna Fletcher!! Always a must read Author!

Duncan & Mercy,

Love Mara the mommy, perfect personality for all those rough boys in her house.

Duncan is sweet, chivalrous, caring, nurturing, protective, prowess, valour, honorable and oh so delicious. Love how he always thinks of Mercy first. He is very attentive and observant.

Mercy is determined, strong, passionate, wise, stubborn and trusts Duncan with her life from the very start. Love the story line. Love their way of solving grouchy feelings :) I will definately implement that!!

MY HERO - Karen Marie Moning just gets Highland Romance!! LOVE IT!

She introduced me to Historical Romance and boy am I glad she did.

LOVE Scotland, LOVE the Plot, LOVE the Characters, ALWAYS A MUST READ AUTHOR.

I would recommend reading the Fever Series First, as she describes the Fae really well there, and they carry over to the Highland series. Bear with the Fae, they seem a bit tedious at times, but it will all make sense I promise.

I need to read these books again (I really really dont mind) to give a propper story review, but i cant wait to get stuck in them again.

To be continued . . .

Insane! First chapters are a well written but difficult read. I battled to get into the book. I dont know why exactly.

Had to constantly remind myself in what era this was. It was hard and raw and unforgiving and a survival of the fittest era. The past was not always romance and roses and courting and pretty stories. This book is the perfect example.

Did not like Harry or the mom much, but that was the point. You understand the Mom better when Bea says something in the book and you have a ja benefit of the doubt moment. Ralph gave me the creeps and had the fear factor with all the intensity and stuff but that was also the point. Cecilia was like mousey and feeble. Very gullable and naive, the kind of person i just want to shake so they might wake up or something.

Beatrice Lacey i still cant get to the bottom of how i feel about her character. I thought her to be aloof and cold to everyone and everything, except her bond with Wideacre, and her actions unforgivable. But to live in a Male dominant society and the survivial of the fittest being reserved for men, you can actually believe her doing these things to ensure a future for Wideacre land and you find yourself rooting for her, and then she does something again and you're back to not being able to like or forgive her.

BUT With a Wideacre heir like Harry no wonder she went all cray-cray. Still, i dont know what to think about the whole book.

- The easiest way to describe it is like if you are in an ancient cathedral or castle grounds and you can feel the vibes so strongly. Its like hardship and regret and love and nature and energy and sorrow and tears and awe and hard to breathe and triumph and dissappoiontment all at the same time.

I might be able to give a better review once i've read all 3 books.

Starting the second book now and also find the start hard, but Wideacre certainly picked up to the end of the first quarter of the book. . . Lets see!
