She is trying to make a better reputation for herself, which means working as a maid for a very rude, touchy-feely (in a bad way), and rich gentleman that is high on the social ladder. So when she ends up beating the dude half to death and runs across the street, she doesn’t expect to run into yet another aristocrat. Although crashing into Griffin King is the least of her worries. A madman is becoming bolder, determined to use his automatons to disband Griffin’s group. To make matters worse the evil half of her personality is growing stronger — and Griffin may be the only person able to help.<br /><br />This book definitely has potential. This was an amazing read once you get into it, but there were some parts that were predictable. After the first few chapters, the story never slows down. Twists? Yeah. Cliffhangers? Definitely. Victorian England makes the story even more complicated with status problems, balls, and the annoying social rules.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02284011263403920462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039652473476655894.post-87822928942402819252011-07-23T21:40:52.564+10:002011-07-23T21:40:52.564+10:00Wow!!

I didn't have the motivation to read it. I wanted to read to when I first saw it but when the time came that it was finally here, in my room, I just couldn't do it. But your review just pushed me to pick it up.Precioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16010073497121681701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039652473476655894.post-90869241712736032522011-07-23T13:32:33.173+10:002011-07-23T13:32:33.173+10:00What a brilliant review Lisa!

It's on my shelf looking at me with puppy dog eyes and now I just want to run over and dive in!<br /><br />Finley sounds great - and the Luxe crossed with Clockwork Angel? YES PLEASE! :)<br /><br />I'd been a little wary of starting this since hearing a few iffy reviews, but now I'm just plain curious. Thank you. :)Sas (Tea Mouse)http://teamousebooks.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039652473476655894.post-30963957651420332732011-07-22T19:35:55.064+10:002011-07-22T19:35:55.064+10:00WOW!
