From Booklist:

*Starred Review* When Justin Grey, the Earl of Clifton, sets off on his first dangerous spy mission, Lucy Ellyson fears he’ll be killed by the French. Seven years later when Lucy meets Justin coming out of the Duke of Hollendrake’s residence in London, she feels like killing him herself. Before he left for France, he promised that as soon as the war was over they would marry. Lucy waited as long as she could before finally giving up hope and getting on with her life. Now that they’ve found one another again, Lucy expects Justin will finally fulfill his promise to marry her. Until she discovers that he plans to wed the very wealthy and quite lovely Annella Corby. All of RITA award-winning Boyle’s signature literary elements—deliciously acerbic writing, splendidly original characters, and sinfully sexy chemistry—blend brilliantly together in the first scintillating installment in her new Widows of Standon historical Regency trilogy. --John Charles
