We know she didn't have a loving marriage and she cares for Raphael, but I didn't feel why she cared for him so soon. Iris was a bit dull as heroine but with the focus so heavily on Raphael's past with the Lords of Chaos, she didn't get a fully rounded out story. Here he rescues her and in order to keep her safe from the Lords of Chaos, he marries her.
If you read the previous book, you'll remember the Duke of Dyemore, Raphael, introduced as a hulking scarred beast who waltzes with Iris.
As this is placed in the Maiden Lane series, I was a little disappointed that we didn't get any previous characters to check up on the Duke of Kyle from the previous book makes an appearance but that is all. You actually wouldn't need to read any other books in the series, maybe just the previous one as you get an introduction to the Lords of Chaos. Previously thought snuffed out in the last book, a new Dionysius leader has emerged and stronger than ever. The twelfth installment in the Maiden Lane series brings us to a resurgence of the Lords of Chaos. With the Lords of Chaos looming over them, Raphael and Iris will show that love is the greater strength. Raphael's scars run deeper than just the surface but Iris is determined to show him he's worthy of love. Now a man and ready to take on the insidious Lords of Chaos, Raphael, finds himself saving a woman he can't forget a shared waltz with. Kidnapped and brought as an offering to the Lords of Chaos, Iris improbably finds herself rescued by the towering Wolf. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. Is their love strong enough to withstand not only the Lords of Chaos but also Raphael's own demons?
But when Iris discovers that Raphael's past may be even more dangerous than the present, she falters. Soon he's drawn both to her quick wit and her fiery passion. Much to Raphael's irritation, Iris insists on being the sort of duchess who involves herself in his life-and bed. But now with the Lords out to kill them both, he has but one choice: marry the lady in order to keep her safe.ĬAUGHT IN A WEB OF DANGER.
