The Devil to Pay by Liz Carlyle

3.0

The first half of this is great. The prologue was intriguing, quirky and set up the premise (Sidonie as Robin Hood) well. I loved Devellyn's character, too - it's such a relief to read about a hero who is not charming, debonair, and a natural with women. That doesn't make him unattractive, as he is self-aware and self-deprecating too. There's a real chemistry when they first meet, and again when they start getting to know one another.

The plot loses its way a little in the second half, and the ending is frankly a little improbable, but I enjoyed the story nonetheless.
