A review by kmkasiner
Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas
3.0
My exploration of Lisa Kleypas continues...
I didn't like this nearly as much as the Wallflowers series. It kinda felt like a filler or setup for the rest of the Ravenels series, without much substance. I enjoyed the historical details and some of the side plots. But I didn't actually like the H/h. The hero was bland, basically just an aggressive alpha male with no defined personality. Kathleen, the heroine, was fine but my opinions of her were somewhat colored by the Hero's atrocious descriptions of her (cat eyes, looks like a child...blech.)
Still good enough for 2.5ish stars of fluff. My favorite part of the book was West and Kathleen's friendship. Hopefully West will get his own book in the future (and will keep his personality and not be a caveman like Devon.)
