Born in Dublin, Flynn lost his whole family to cholera at a young age, but has never forgotten the loving home provided by his parents and is keen to have a family of his own. Or it would be were it not for the fact that she fancies the pants off Patrick Flynn, Irish charmer, handsome rogue and owner of Flynn shipping, the company in which Max and Freddie (heroes of books one and two) are investors. In the eyes of the law, anything that belongs to a woman automatically belongs to her husband once she has one, ergo, she isn’t going to have one. It’s not that she doesn’t like men, but she’s determined that when she does become the owner of a business, it will be hers alone. She forgets to eat and hardly sleeps, but she’s so driven by her ambition to earn enough money to open up her own shop that taking care of herself falls way down the list of her priorities.Īlso a long way down Daisy’s list of priorities – in fact, so far down that it’s not even on there – is marriage. Daisy can barely keep up she spends every waking moment designing, cutting, sewing and embellishing in order to meet the demand. She’s already making a name for herself by creating gowns for Abby and Damaris – two of her sisters who are now happily married to society gentlemen – and new orders are coming in all the time. She’s a cockney foundling brought up in a brothel, and her ambition is to be the most fashionable modiste in London. It’s the turn of Daisy, the only one of the four who wasn’t born a Lady, to get her HEA. This instalment is a decent enough read, but it doesn’t have anything new to offer and the romantic tension isn’t very, well, tense.

Maybe I'll just pick a favorite Anne Gracie couple to have Valentine's day lunch with. :) And I agree with MsHellion that the best heroes are so in love with their beloveds that it's difficult to think of one without the other. One of the joys of being a romance reader is having a different hero every day, all of them wonderful. Hi, Anne! I think everyone who knows me knows that I'm an Anne Gracie fan and have been since I read Gallant Waif, one of my all-time favorite books.
