This Capitol Theatre duology has fallen so flat for me. I wanted to love Logan......but he made it too hard. Madeline never found her backbone. There was tons of steam, which I usually love in a LK book, but there was absolutely no emotional connection between the characters.

4 solid stars!
I loved this book so much! It was full of angst and love! Logan was such a tortured soul in need of love but just couldn't allow himself to love or be loved in return. Once he met Maddy, he was a goner but he fought against it. Poor guy, he was in desperate need of love and ughh! Yes, he was cruel to Maddy but she did break his trust and he had his own reasons for being the way he was.
Maddy, Maddy, Maddy.... I got so much second hand embarrassment from this one... She was such a naive girl who didn't pay heed to her actions and how it could hurt the people around her.
I just found out Lord Drake gets a story so I'll be reading that soon!

I'm a Kleypas fan and really enjoyed this one. Wish there'd been more in this series! :)

Maddy and Logan are some pretty interesting characters— I liked his backstory— but it wasn't a particularly enthralling book.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the age gap between the main characters but I know the story is set in a different time period and regardless, I really liked the hero and heroine as individuals and as a couple. I stumbled across this book randomly while in a reading funk and I think it’s one of my favourite Lisa Kleypas books now. I can always rely on a LK book to be well-written, entertaining, and heartwarming.
