The Rake Review #1
Up past midnight wanting to find out if Edward and Persephone would get their happily ever after the second time around. Great way to spend the first day of 2024!
What I liked:
* Persephone: duke’s daughter, back in London after seven years away, jilted by Edward ten years before the story begins, still loves but doesn’t trust him, The Fixer, wants a husband and family
* Edward: wealthy, shipping magnate, mother Chinese and father British, has a younger brother, rake, jilted Persephone ten years ago, still loves and can’t forget her, conflicted
* The plot, pacing, setting, and writing
* Madison: Persephone’s friend and chaperone, in a loving marriage, wise, accepting, wants what is best for her friend
* The search for Edward’s kidnapped brother and how it all panned out
* Eugenia: Edward’s mother, Chinese, loving wife and mother, gave good advice to Edward
* Thinking about the ton and the social levels in British society and how difficult it must have been for some, especially other and mixed races
* That the was a happily ever after…eventually
What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* Thinking about how vicious and cruel some society types were and still can be
