"Kleypas is a romance gem, a queen among a vast royal court of historical romance authors." â??Entertainment Weekly

A stunning new reprint of a classic Lisa Kleypas love story in which a marriage in name only becomes something more...
The toast of the town...

All London is at Julia Wentworth's feetâ??and anything she desires is hers for the asking. But the glamorous leading lady guards a shocking secret: a mystery husband whom she does not know, dares not mention . . . and cannot love.

For years Damon Savage has been searching for the stranger his parents wed him to without his consent, hoping to legally free himself from matrimony's invisible chains. And he is astonished to discover his "bride" is none other than the exquisite lady he'd hoped to make his mistress!

But though his wife by law, Julia will never truly be Damon'sâ??until he conquers her fears, his formidable rivals . . . and her proud, passionate, and independent heart.… (meer)

Effettive tre stelle e mezzo.
Insomma, non mi ha proprio entusiasmato e, di certo, non è all’altezza della migliore produzione della Kleypas. Manca quel tocco di leggerezza e quella lieve ironia che la caratterizzano, nonché la vivacità e il brio che la contraddistinguono. La lettura, nel complesso, si rivela lenta e un po’ pesante, persa nei due protagonisti, Jessica/Julia e Damon, che, pur se ben inquadrati nell’epoca, alla fine risultano piuttosto ingessati. Anche il linguaggio appare appesantito discostandosi da quello solito pur se perfettamente in linea col periodo di riferimento.
Un matrimonio contratto da bambini per volere dei genitori segna il presente dei due protagonisti che non si conoscono se non per nome che, del resto, Julia Hargate ha cambiato in Jessica Wentworth quando ha intrapreso la carriera di attrice. Entrambi non desiderano altro che sciogliere quel vincolo ma conoscersi, in realtĂ , farĂ  una notevole differenza.

This is not one of Kleypas's best books, although it is still completely readable. While the main characters are good enough - although maybe not entirely interesting - I found myself interested more by Logan Scott - who to me was a far more interesting character than Damon. Kleypas does a lot more "telling" than "showing" - which I see as a fault - and I think she has Julia give in to Damon too quickly. It seems that one moment she's convinced she can't marry him, and then switches her opinion in an instant. I would have liked to see that better developed. Still, all in all, not a bad read. ( )

3.5 stars - overall I did enjoy this book it just wasn’t as good as other Kleypas novels. But the plot was likeable enough with decent characters. ( )

Somewhere I’ll Find You - Kleypas
Audio performance by Rosalyn Landor
2.5 stars

Mildly entertaining, but instantly forgettable. Not sure what was lacking, but I have no interest in continuing with the other books in this older series. I do prefer Kleypas’ more recent work. ( )
