A review by red_steele
Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas

3.0

This book is unbalanced. Devon is a top-tiered arse and other than lust and sexual tension I found nothing worthwhile between him and Kathleen. It would have made more sense for Kathleen to fall in love with Wes.

The author ruined Kathleen’s character falsely characterizing her as a “strong woman”. There was zero character growth and unfortunately she yielded to Devon’s predictable seduction. There was too much sex and unnecessary foul language.

I liked the secondary characters (Helen, Pandora, Cassandra and Wes). I hope the next book is better.
