His chuch is packed on Sundays, mostly with women interpreting double meanings in his sermons and hoping he's secretly speaking to them.
He's appeared in a few of the other books, and most notable for his exceptional good looks. She comes to Pennyroyal Green because she now owns a small estate there, and wants to start the next – very new and different – part of her life there.Īdam is the vicar of Pennyroyal Green, and a cousin to the Everseas, one of the two families of note in Pennyroyal Green. Evie is assumed to be cold, calculating, and ambitious, but she's really lonely, though unapologetic for her notorious past. As we said in the book club chat for What I Did for a Duke, Pennyroyal Green would make a fantastic television series.Įvie is the notorious countess: a former actress and courtesan, she married an Earl who won her in a card game, and is now a widow after his sudden death. It's all the best things of historical romance with witty dialogue and interesting characters, with the charm of small town settings that are so popular in contemporary romance. I wish the ending had been stronger, but this is still one of my favorite historical series.
It isn't action packed with swashbuckling mayhem, but the tension and emotional power builds so slowly that I didn't want to stop reading. I stayed up way too late reading this book.
