Richard and Rose are rejoicing over the birth of a daughter and celebrating at his family estate, Eyton; with everyone around. Little do they know that they will be involved with a murderer, a thief, and unwanted family? His mother is still the stiff, starched and uncaring person he remembers and she puts Rose through the grind by testing her skills as the next countess.
This loving couple continues to awe the ton, and their families alike, with the displays of their tender affections in public, leaving little doubt of their union being a true love match. Richard is still determined to protect Rose from harm by anyone, and now he has a precious daughter to also to keep safe. During the dinners, lazy afternoons, and balls that are taking place, a murder is committed, leaving it up to the two of them to solve. I must say that, with the loyalty of their servants who doubled as bodyguards, the threats towards them were kept to a minimum.
Eyton is the fifth book in the Richard and Rose series and I really missed reading about their interactions. Richard’s family, still not completely accepting Rose, causes a problem for him but Rose comes through for him and wins them all over. It was a nice touch to having some of the characters from previous books to appear to celebrate the birth of their daughter. Because of their negative attitudes, some of the characters really needed to be shaken up and Rose definitely came through there.
When Richard and Rose weren’t busy satisfying others, they spent time with their daughter or pleasuring each other. Add in murder, a thief, and overbearing parents and the plot thickens even more. I was surprised at how Ms. Connolly ended this story, yet pleased at how the family pulled together to protect one another. I say well done Ms. Connolly, and I am hoping to read a little more in regards to a few of the secondary characters soon. Hint. Hint.
