The Rake (Daughters of Dishonour Series) by Ava Bond – Review by Kerry Carr

The Rake by Ava Bond
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the Daughter’s of Dishonor series. This is a historical romance but also so much more than that, there is mystery angst, danger, chemistry.
The author did an amazing job of transporting the reader back in time to that period.

Margot Keating is a vicars daughter, she travels from Berwick with a secret that she needs to protect at all costs. She tries not to draw attention to herself but fails miserably when she finds herself involved in a murder mystery and a case of missing diamonds.
And she also catches the attention of a certain Rake.

Lord Silvester Beresford is well know for his handsome looks and charm but one thing he has not intention of doing is falling in love. That is until Margot Keating crosses his path.

Can these 2 opposite people work together to solve the murder mystery and the case of the missing diamonds? And could Margot be the women who can change Silvester’s way of looking at women. Could she be the one he will settle down and change his ways for?

I do enjoy historical romances and with the added twist it a murder mystery really made this a book I couldn’t put down.
