Although on first glance this book appears to be only a romance, the novel is far from that. Zeno is a Scotland Yard Detective. He exhibits a clever mind, enigmatic past, and handsome face. Cassie, the other hand, is not the typical Victorian woman. She is brave, brash, and beautiful. She doesn't conform to any of society's laws or expectations. The reader will love getting to know these two.

The handsome detective has had a mystery weighing on his mind for a long time and finally decides to truly go for it. What he finds instead is Cassie. The two have a bit of instant attraction and the reader will enjoy their sparking relationship. As most good mysteries are, AN AFFAIR WITH MR. KENNEDY contains many twists and surprises that will definitely take the reader by surprise.

AN AFFAIR WITH MR. KENNEDY reads very well. There are no awkward moments or events that will leave the reader confused or wondering about the characters or plot. The ending is perfect, the reader will be happy. Any mystery or romance reader should pick up this book.

SUMMARY

Detective Zeno “Zak” Kennedy is considered a hero in London after breaking up a plot against the Crown. But villainy never sleeps, and he’s now after a ring of Irish anarchists plotting a bombing campaign. When he discovers that one of these treacherous lords is acquainted with his new tenant, widowed Cassie St. Cloud, he sets out to get closer to the lady. Cassie is no Victorian prude; the daughter of two prominent doctors, she is a freethinking artist and a volunteer at a girls’ school. She’s set her sights on her handsome new landlord, and soon they’re enmeshed in the most passionate affair of her life. But when she discovers that their meeting was not purely accidental, will she be able to forgive him?
