Description:
He pledged his honor to keep her safe…
Returning home to Cornwall after an unspeakable tragedy, Sir Gideon Trevithick comes upon a defiant beauty in danger and vows to protect her whatever the cost. He's dismayed to discover that she's none other than Lady Charis Weston, England's wealthiest heiress—and that the only way to save her from the violent stepbrothers determined to steal her fortune is to wed her himself! Now Gideon must hide the dark secrets of his life from the bride he desires more with every heartbeat.
She promised to show him how to love—and desire—again…
Charis has heard all about Gideon, the dangerously handsome hero with the mysterious past. She's grateful for his help but utterly unwilling to endure a marriage of convenience—especially to a man whose touch leaves her breathless. Desperate to drive him mad with passion, she would do anything to make Gideon lose control—and fall captive to irresistible, undeniable sin.
My Review:
Sir Gideon has his own demons he has to deal with when he found Lady Charis Weston beaten and bruised. With his honor he vowed to protect her no matter what it takes. He is a hero, famous amongst society. Charis at first has no idea who or what he is but she did not care. Gideon became her hero when he continues to save her.
All Charis had to do was make it to her 21st birthday and she would be free from her step brothers, that was easier said than done. Gideon had a plan after her step-brothers showed up on his door step demanding their sister. A decision had to be made and making his decision sent them on another adventure.
I loved Gideon and Charis, Charis was not the typical socialite in court and Gideon was not your ravishing, wanting to seduce his way through court. Both Gideon and Charis are strong in their own ways but together they are stronger, they need each other to be able to heal.
I won this book in a contest from Ms. Campbell and I am glad I did. This was the first book that I have read by her. I cannot wait to get my hands on her other works. I would like to thank her for this opportunity to read Captive of Sin.
