About this ebook

Linley Talbot-Martin is a girl who likes to get her hands dirty. As the daughter of a famous archaeologist, she’s been everywhere and seen everything—except London. But when the time comes to trade her jodhpurs and work boots for silk gowns and kid gloves, she may be in over her head.

Even though she can out-ride, out-shoot, and outsmart any girl in London society, Linley is destined to be the failure of the season. No one she meets cares about ancient pottery or lost Buddhist texts, and fundraising efforts for future expeditions keep coming up short. If the Talbot-Martin team doesn’t find money soon, they will be out of a job, and Linley will lose everything she holds dear.

Patrick Wolford, Marquess of Kyre (pronounced 'Keer'), is a man who knows his place. Well-connected and respected, he is everything everyone expects him to be, but beneath his façade, he is as neglected and crumbling as the family estate. Now the strain of keeping up appearances is taking its toll. The smart thing would be to marry the heiress nipping at his heels and be done with it, but when he meets Linley Talbot-Martin, who dares to shake up his seemingly proper world, he must choose between the life he’s always known and one he never dared to dream of.

Plot is interesting and adventurous but takes too long to get to the point. Main character's father is a selfish man who would rather see his daughter die than to do whatever he needs to save her life. The ending was a let down and it felt rushed. Would not recommended this book to romance enthusiasts, it's more of an adventure story with two stubborn main characters who don't know what they want.

interesting story line.. gets too lengthy at times. I am surprised that Linley's character is shown so strong and smart yet she stuck to her selfish father who had left her to die? unnecessary long description if various journeys took up too many pages and felt too many loose ends.

A pleasant book but I felt as if a chunk was missing at the end. With all the intenseness of their journey through the jungle then no news of her fathers reaction to her being taken from his care. Or what happened to the other co conspirator. They said that he had gone but didn't say whether it was from death or he had left because everything had changed. It ended with a bit of a fizzle.
