Quick Review: Never a Mistress, No Longer a Maid

Never a Mistress, No Longer a Maid (Kellington Book One)
Synopsis

Caught behind enemy lines at the Battle of Waterloo, nurse Jane Wetherby is forced to seek shelter with British operative Lord Edward Kellington. After a night of passion, the two are separated. With nothing but the alias Jane used to protect her family, Lord Edward is unable to find the woman he can't forget.

Seven years later, Jane courts scandal by serving as the unofficial surgeon in the village of Marston Vale. When Edward arrives to formalize his betrothal to a viscount's daughter in accordance with his late father's wishes, Jane has no choice but to watch the match proceed. When a threat from the past emerges, Jane must join forces with Edward to safeguard her loved ones. But at what risk to her heart...

Review

When someone recommends a book tha has a silly title, its easier to ignore the recomendation and move onto another book with a great title. I'm glad I took a chance on this book. Ignoring the tittle, this is by far one of the best Historical books I've read this year. Maureen Driscoll knows how to weave a story, her characters are dreamy and completely gorgeous and the touch of sensuality adds anther dimension that eludes other authors. This book is sexy, gripping and  Ned Kellington would rival Darcy Fitzwilliam. Its worth more than the price.
