labyrinth_witch's review against another edition
4.0
I’m this second installment, the female is a smuggler and the male character is a newly minted earl with not money to back up the title. He also has no financial acumen and spends money and wracks up debt like it won’t ever come back to bite him. She marries him to have a neglectful husband so she can continue smuggling to save her people from starvation.
I like marriage of convenience plots more than anything, and this one was okay. Both characters have moments of emotional growth. But it was just okay.

I love a marriage of convenience, of course. And I love a good smuggling plot. Throw in a reluctant virgin and a voyeuristic outing to a sex club to teach her that sex is normal? This was a lot of fun. There’s still something missing in this series that I felt in Eva Leigh's most recent work, and this relied a little too much on instalust overall, but again, I had fun.

I really liked this one... both partners have secrets to hide, and the secrets have to come out sometime. I loved that Tamsyn, the heroine, is from Cornwall and how much that informs her story. I particularly enjoyed the plot twists in this story. Can't wait for the next!

I liked the role reversal, he has to ask for her permission to spend funds.

The plot was good but I got tired of Tamsyn lying all the time and then feeling guilty about it. I was also unhappy with how quickly Kit put aside his feelings toward smuggling. I really felt that he should have tried to help come up with a solution that would better everybody and not be illegal.
