Catherine Marks loves her job as companion to the two youngest Hathaway sisters. For more than three years, she has helped teach them the rules of the aristocracy. But one thing she doesn't like is their older brother, Leo, Viscount Ramsey. Their relationship has been antagonistic, always jabbing at each other when the opportunity strikes. But that relationship changes drastically when Leo gives in and kisses Cat. Now they are dealing with a mutual attraction that burns hotter each time they lay eyes on each other. As Leo gets to know Catherine a little better, he realizes she is keeping some secrets she would rather keep hidden.
I liked Leo and "Marks" (as he calls her) ever since they met in the second book of the series. I have been waiting for their book and was afraid it wouldn't live up to my expectations. Well, I can happily say I wasn't disappointed. Leo was devastated by the loss of his childhood sweetheart to the point that he was self-destructive. It's taken a couple of books to get him in the right frame of mind to go forward with his life. But he's still not ready to love again and uses his rapier wit and charm to keep people at a distance. Cat grew up unloved by her parents, then by her aunt and grandmother. She just wants a family that she can fit into and the unconventional Hathaways have given her that. She doesn't want to chance losing that family because of her relationship with Leo.
In this book we uncover some secrets from Cat's past. We also learn that the Hathaways may lose their home due to a previously unknown stipulation tied to the Leo's title. The characters from the previous books are back. It's always good to see them. But my favorites parts of this book were the conversations between Leo and Cat which were sometimes hilarious. My rating: 5 Stars.
