Review | PASSIONATELY YOURS by Cara Elliott
May 26, 2015
By Linda
GreenCarolina Sloane, known as Caro to her friends and family, has
always been the more impetuous and passionate of the Sloane
girls. Being the youngest and a talented poet, Caro longs for
an adventure of her own, and it is not long before her wish is
granted. Having made a new friend in Isobel Urquehart, Caro is
shocked to discover that she is the sister of Alec McClellan,
the rude Scotsman whom she had clashed with at a country party
in Scotland.
After an attempted kidnapping of Isobel, Caro is
determined to uncover the assailants, with or without Alec's
help. But as she becomes embroiled in danger, she also finds
herself battling her feelings for Alec, whom she believes is
hiding his true, passionate nature underneath his controlled,
distant exterior.
Alec is determined to keep his sister, and the infuriating
Miss Sloane, safe from danger. But as the plot thickens, and
danger appears around every corner, Alec struggles with his
relationship with Caro. Having suffered deeply in the past,
Alec has resolved to remain alone, but there is something
about Caro that gets under his skin. Throw in subterfuge, a
dangerous rebel, secrets and sizzling temptation, and who
knows how this adventure may end?
In the third part of The Hellions of High Street series, Caro
Elliott has once again struck gold with PASSIONATELY YOURS.
Caro is my favourite of the Sloane sisters.
Spirited, upfront, kind and intelligent, Caro is not afraid to
take risks and throw herself into action when she gets the
impulse. Alec is an engaging hero and I found myself wondering
what had happened to him in the past, and why he had
constructed this hard shell as protection. The action in PASSIONATELY YOURS
is
captivating
and exciting in a way that left me
wanting more. Cara Elliott has a way with words that makes the
reader instantly connect and care about her characters, and I
could not read the story quick enough. PASSIONATELY YOURS by
Cara Elliott is an enchanting read, and I advise you to buy it
now. Better yet buy the series! Giveaway!

With her older sisters both happily married, Caro Sloane yearns for a
romantic
adventure of her own. Unfortunately the muddy, sulfur- scented waters of
Bath
seem the least likely setting for love or excitement. But the aspiring young
poet soon finds inspiration when she runs into a familiar-and achingly
handsome-
Scottish laird.
Visiting Bath with his sickly sister, Alec McClellan is shocked to be
reunited
with Caro Sloane. He hasn't been able to forget the English beauty since
their
brief but exhilarating first meeting. But Bath is not nearly as serene as it
appears, and soon Alec must protect Caro from a danger that threatens to
extinguish the sparks flying between them. Little does he know that a bit of
danger is exactly what Caro is looking for . . .
