Really enjoyed the epilogue. ( ) The more I think on this book, the more perplexed I am by one plot point in particular... This is one series where I really enjoyed the first book and then things went downhill from there... It was never terrible, but I don't think this is a series I'll revisit in the future. While I liked this book in the end, the first half was pretty slow. Because this book is rooted in history and is trying to navigate the moral, legal and ethical questions around the Western world taking historic artifacts and art from other parts of the world this book is heavier than most romances, even historical ones. I will say this is an interesting topic to center a book around as it is becoming a bigger and bigger question today surrounding the collections of some of the biggest museums in the world. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:“Dunmore is my new find in historical romance. Her A League of Extraordinary Women series is extraordinary.”—Julia Quinn, #1 New York Times bestselling author Bookish suffragist Catriona Campbell is busy: An ailing estate, academic writer’s block, a tense time for England’s women’s rights campaign—the last thing she needs is to be stuck playing host to her father’s distractingly attractive young colleague. Deeply introverted Catriona lives for her work at Oxford and her fight for women’s suffrage. She dreams of romance, too, but since all her attempts at love have ended badly, she now keeps her desires firmly locked inside her head—until she climbs out of a Scottish loch after a good swim and finds herself rather exposed to her new colleague. Elias Khoury has wheedled his way into Professor Campbell’s circle under false pretenses: he did not come to Oxford to classify ancient artefacts, he is determined to take them back to his homeland in the Middle East. Winning Catriona’s favor could be the key to his success. Unfortunately, seducing the coolly intense lady scholar quickly becomes a mission in itself and his well-laid plans are in danger of derailing... Forced into close proximity in Oxford’s hallowed halls, two very different people have to face the fact that they might just be a perfect match. Soon, a risky new game begins that asks Catriona one more time to put her heart and wildest dreams at stake. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
