From a distance, Helena Winsome appears to be a kind,
unsuspecting governess who loves the children she looks
after. Though she does love her charges, Helena is more
than
a governess; she is a spy sent to discover if the Duke of
Greybrooke has committed treason. Failure to investigate
him
would mean the destruction of her family, particularly her
brother who can't stay away from card tables. When
unknowing
Greybrooke offers her a chance at being his mistress, she
doesn't want to deceive him, but the more pressure is put
on
her to find his secrets will lead her down an erotic path
she never intended to go down.
DEEPLY IN YOU by Sharon Page seems to play into the
predictable story paths of the rakish duke-stubborn and
socially beneath woman trope at first, but about a fourth
of
the way in, the story finds an exciting, original, and
ultimately refreshing stride that makes it hard to step
away
for the rest of the novel. Helena and Grey's journey is
one
of intense passion, begrudging love, sinful scandal,
deadly
mystery, and a large dose of care.
The characterization of the minor characters shines in
this
book. Grey and Helena both have family members they care
deeply for, and it's a sheer joy getting to know them.
They
each are so distinct and interesting. With the main
characters, Helena and Grey, they all make the story feel
intimate. I could imagine the later books in the Wicked
Dukes series giving off a vibe of coming home after
reading
this one.
For readers of historical romance and erotica, DEEPLY IN
YOU
explores a relationship you won't soon forget. Sharon Page
does a marvelous job of creating life-like characters in
an
aged world. Though the beginning was a bit rocky for me,
DEEPLY IN YOU is a heart-warming, body-heating enjoyable
read not to be missed.
Anxious to save her brother
from
debtor's prison, Helena Winsome agrees to find proof that
the Duke of Greybrooke is a traitor. Well aware of his
wicked ways, she takes on the guise of a demure governess.
But his smoldering sensuality overwhelms her--as does his
vow to make her his lover, a scandalous promise that
leaves
her weak with desire. . .
Sexual
Seduction
Darkly handsome and powerfully
seductive, the Duke of Greybrooke is a man of deep
passion.
When the lovely Miss Helena Winsome turns down an offer to
become his mistress, Grey takes on the challenge. He'll
expose Helena to the erotic thrill of carnal pleasure and
tease her senses until all she can do is beg for more. .
