Another improbable but wholly enjoyable Regency romp by Mary Jo Putney. Lady Kiri Lawford is not the prime and proper English woman she wants to be. Daughter of a Hindu princess and an English general, now deceased, Kiri is the step-daughter of General Lord Ashford and sister to the Duke of Ashford. Damien Mackenzie is trouble with a capital T, illegitimate son of a duke and half brother to an officer serving in the British army. He runs a gentleman's gambling club, not at all respectable. But, when they are thrown together by a plot against Princess Charlotte and the House of Hanover, the fact they are both strong and resourceful people comes to their mutual aid. Another page-turner from Mary Jo Putney.Back to the Lost Lords, those boys from the Westerfield Academy, this time we meet Damian Mackenzie, the bastard half-brother of Lord Masterton. He's made a living for himself running a gambling establishment in London. He's off to pick up smuggled goods for his business. But then he meetsLady Kiri Lawford who needs help immediately. Damian's chivalrous instincts rise to the fore and the two escape away into the night.More complications lead to the two of them working together undercover to foil a plot to bring down the English government. Lots of adventure, excitement, and of course, romance result.More suspense and danger than some romances, the requisite happy ending is achieved.

I literally could not get past page 125. This book just did not do it for me. Firstly, the story is too unbelievable. The plot was too mysterious with not enough romance and the characters Kiri and Mac barely had any chemistry. Kiri was too perfect and Mac was just not likeable enough. This story may have been better suited for a contemporary 2014 drama novel but it doesn't fit the historical genre. This was my first book by Putney and I'm sad to say it may be the last.

Nowhere near as good as MJP's earlier work...
