He needs a strong wife as a pawn to flush out a killer!

Ruby de Burgh acts more like the son her father always wanted, and nothing like a lady. She is not pleased to find out her father has promised Lord Sheffield his choice of one of his daughter's hands in marriage, and he has chosen her.

Lord Nyle Dacre of Sheffield needs a wife so he can carry out his secret mission for the king. However, after losing three wives in a matter of months, he is sure their deaths were not accidents. They were murdered. Now, to catch the murderer that he believes to be inside his castle walls, he chooses a wife as bait who he knows can wield a sword and hold her own against any attacker.

Will murder and mayhem place a wedge between an unconventional wife and the Lord of Death, or bring them closer together as emotions are brought to the surface?

Resenhas (1)

4 (Muito bom)

Bom para passar o tempo

O livro em si é bom de ler, curto e nada cansativo.
Achei um pouco ruim que a Ruby perde a sua essência, em um momento ela é toda forte e não vou mudar quem eu sou por ninguém e no outro ela quer ser uma dama para agradar o marido, aprende a cozinhar, bordar e etc.
O leitor já imagina o plot twist desde os primeiros capítulos, mas mesmo assim quando chega na hora da revelação você fica meio chocado.
A leitura flui bem, não é nada extraordinário mas é bem legal de se ler.
