Obsession Wears Opals by Renee Bernard
3.0
This story has a lot to recommend it, taking the Victorian romance and adding some neat twists. The hunky hero is a scholar, not a nobleman and the lady in distress is rescued first by her horse. There are two suspenseful plots, one about saving the lady and one about legendary jewels. The hunky hero is more beta than alpha, marked by decency and courtesy more than bossiness. There's a great cast of supporting characters and the steamy bits are yummy.
None of which stopped me from skimming whole chapters as the narrative dragged. Well worth reading, but I doubt I will read others in the searies.
