When Eva de Courtney kidnaps Godric Fleming, her only plan is to stop the irritating earl from persecuting her beloved brother. But once she has the intriguing rogue in the confines of her carriage, she longs to taste the passion she senses simmering beneath his rugged exterior. Her forbidden plan is foiled, however, when Godric turns the tables, taking her hostage instead—and demanding they marry at once…
 
The last thing Godric wants to do is make the fiery, impulsive Eva his wife, despite her delectable mouth and alluring innocence. He knows from experience that nothing is forever, not even love. But honor demands he do right by the lady, no matter how stubbornly Eva tries to hold on to her independence. And while the road to the Scottish border is beset with danger, Godric’s greatest challenge is to keep his hands—and his heart—from his captivating bride-to-be…

This is the first book that I have read by Minerva Spencer and I really enjoyed the characters and the plot of the book. I loved her attention to detail and her research that she did while writing this book. If you enjoy reading historical romance with some action and romance this is the book for you. 

First, we meet Godric Fleming, Earl of Visel, who is the heir to the Duke of Tyndale. He is a war hero and was plotting to destroy a man’s life. At first I was hoping that Eva would succeed in her plans for Godric. He seemed to be such an arrogant man. Then after reading more about him, he truly was heartbroken and just looking to sooth his heart and soul. I loved how he slowly changed throughout this book. Especially when he was with Eva. I loved how they interacted with each other like when they would argue and neither of them backed down.

Eva de Courtney was not a normal nineteen-year-old girl. They all thought she was mad just like her mother. I truly sympathized with her because that’s all she was ever told and grew to believe it. I loved how she accepted it and didn’t care what others thought of her. I liked the fierceness in which she loved her family. She sacrificed herself for the love she had for her brother and committed a crime that could land her in shackles.  I especially enjoyed how she presented herself not caring for balls, gowns or entertaining people of the ton. She definitely had her own style men in that era might find appalling.

With the adventure they go on, I was taken for a funny, scary, and exciting ride. They both were evenly matched in wit and stubbornness that had me laughing and flipping the pages to see what would happen next. I truly enjoyed this book and can’t wait to dive in to the next book in the Rebels of the Ton series.
