نقد و بررسی
Ashford McNab narrates a powerful story set in 1820 but that reverberates with issues that are more current. Eli Dawes has returned, seemingly from the dead, after the Battle of Waterloo; Rose Hayward has managed to make a comfortable life for herself as an artist and teacher. Both Rose and Eli suffered severely traumatizing events in their pasts, and McNab skillfully balances the complex set of emotions the experience as they confront and master their respective pain. Eli and Rose are always portrayed as whole and complete individuals, which is a credit to both McNab and the author. Secondary characters are fully and distinctly voiced by McNab, and it's easy to distinguish a student of the Haverhall School for Young Ladies from a servant. K.M.P. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine

In the appealing second Devils of Dover Regency (after A Duke in the Night), Bowen brings together two wounded souls who cannot heal without each other. Rose Hayward is an artist, revealing the hidden beauty of her subjects through her paintings. Her onetime fiancé, Anthony, devastated her by circulating cruel caricatures of her, and she’s hidden from society ever since. Anthony’s friend Eli Dawes, the Earl of Rivers, nearly died at Waterloo; he reluctantly returns to England to claim his inheritance, and finds the Haywards renting his Dover estate. Six years ago, Rose and Eli shared a love of art but little more. Although she barely recognizes the damaged man who returns from war, their former friendship and a new, exciting attraction make her determined to help him regain his confidence and place in society, not realizing he is the only one who can help her do likewise. Skillfully crafted with intriguing characters, this historical romance will appeal to fans of Mary Balogh. Agent: Stefanie Lieberman, Janklow & Nesbit.
