I never felt a connection between the main characters. I didn't have any desire to read the next two. Set in a mythical world which feels vaguely Victorian - gaslights and trains, but courts and small princedoms. Megan Hart has invented the order of Solace, which sends women out to give moments of perfect solace to their patrons, in order to satisfy their religious mythology. I really liked the 3 tales which had 3 very different heroines and 3 men who are old school friends, b ut floundering in their current lives. Edward finds Stillness. the Prince finds honesty - which I actually found the least believable/satisfying of the three tales, and Alaric found his Lady, which tale I liked the most. Megan Hart always writes well, and this book is written beautifully. I don't always like her stories, but all three here worked, and this counts as a keeper for me. Megan Hart delivers another enthralling, emotionally driven read. This one was hard to put down. Pleasure and Purpose is the first book in the Order of Solace series. Three beautifully written stories. This book is about three friends whose lives are turned around by three women of the Order of Solace. Not only are these stories about finding solace, but they are also about friendship, forgiveness, trust and love. I have to say I was absolutely blown away by this book, and I highly recommend it. no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesOrder of Solace (book 1)
The handmaidens of the Order of Solace are each named after the exquisite service that best reflects their true calling. Their greatest delight is giving pleasure - devoted as they are to fulfilling the desires of the mind, the needs of the soul and the cravings of the body. Readers will meet Stillness, called upon to soothe the conscience of a man in need of sexual redemption; Honesty, whose vow of solace is to a prince looking for a submissive handmaiden; and Determination - a handmaiden confronted with a client lost in a haze of random sex and drugs.
