A Sinful Deception

A Sinful Deception is a second series of Breconridge Brothers by Isabella Bradford. Just by the cover and the title of this book makes you wonder what it entail and you guessed it right! It is a brilliant tale of love, lies, and survival all wrapped around together. Lord Geoffrey Fitzroy is the second son of Duke of Breconridge, and also a handsome bachelor and ladies' man. Lady Serena Carew, a mysterious young woman with an exotic beauty, grew up in India. When Geoffrey sees her at a ball, he can't resist dancing with her. He is captivated by Serena and how set apart she is from others. Even though their relationship is forbidden by her grandfather, they can't seem to resist the desire they share for each other. There are truths Serena is keeping from Geoffrey, secrets that could destroy their bond to each other. The story's climax is different from my typical experience in this genre and it's quite exciting. The dialogue appears very true to the era and I love how the dresses on the covers for Bradford's books are always featured in the story, adding an authenticity that is rare these days. I have to say the romance is steamy and sensual and has incredible tension. I am absolutely loving this writer and the series. *JK*
