Ash Claughbane, the youngest of four sons, is a con artist
who has arrived in London to get his revenge on the man who
ruined his family. He is determined and devoted to his cause
until he meets Lady Evangeline Green, which complicates
everything. Torn between his need for revenge and
his need for Evangeline, Ash'a web of lies leaves him
tangled as he decides whether to stay with the woman he is
coming to desire or leaving without a trace.
THE REBEL HEIR is the second book in Elizabeth Michels'
Spare
Heirs series. Ash and Evangeline are a wonderful
couple that naturally works well together. Their witty
exchanges and pure faith in each other is delightful, and
they are quickly becoming one of my favorite romantic
couples. Ash's devil-may-care attitude is contagious, and
his need to make Evangeline smile is sweet and touching. He
is the romantic anti-hero of reader's dreams. Evangeline's
trust in Ash is poignant and her growth throughout the story
makes her a believable character readers will love. Her
independent streak and her vulnerabilities make her a
perfect heroine. The romance between the two is steamy and
touching, and the ending for the couple is worth the wait.
Michels inclusion of Braxton's point of view adds suspense
and excitement to THE REBEL HEIR. He is the perfect man to
go up against Ash, and the ultimate resolution is shocking.
Evangeline's mother is the stuff of nightmares, and her
eventual downfall will have readers cheering. The surprising
introduction of Ash's brother, Brennan, is brilliant and
helps to further Ash's conflicting feelings. Evangeline's
cousins, Victoria and Isabelle, add some humor to the story,
and an added subplot that will leave readers pleasantly
puzzled at the end. The plot moves along at a great pace,
and the settings are well detailed, especially Vauxhall
Gardens. THE REBEL HEIR brings together a poised debutante
and a swindling con artist to create a love story romance
fans will thoroughly enjoy.
