Sullivan Waring wants only two things: his rightful inheritance, and revenge against the man who stole it from him. By day, Sullivan is the most respected horse breeder in England; by night, he plunders the ton's most opulent homes to reclaim his late mother's beautiful paintings. His quest is going swimmingly . . . until the night he's discovered by Lady Isabel Chalsey. Clad only in a revealing nightdress, she's an entrancingly different kind of plunder, and how can a thief resist stealing a kiss? A Curious Lady . . . Surprised by a masked man in her own home, Isabel should be quaking with fear. Instead the sight of the sinfully handsome Sullivan makes her tremble with excitement. Who is this man, and why is he so set on this reckless pursuit? Lady Isabel loves a challenge, and she'll dare anything to uncover Sullivan's secret—but she may instead convince him that she is the greatest prize of all. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - So-soUh-oh, this is the second Suzanne Enoch book in a row I've read and not loved (following on the heels of the disappointing Sins of a Duke). I got hooked on Enoch because of her engaging characters, interesting subplots, and surprising resolutions to the hero/heroine conflict. This book had the first two ... but the resolution was fairly dull. I guess I was expecting her usual exciting plot twists there, but the hero/heroine just come together in a rather predictable way. Still it held my interest ... Read More Rating: - a different type of historical romance, but some holesI liked that the book 's plot is different from the typical historical romance. The minor characters are also extremely well done, making me curious about future books on those characters. Why I gave it only 3 stars: I prefer more dialogue and less explanation. Spoiler ahead: I also think the book has a major plot flaw. The main conflict in the book was iniated when the hero's father sells/gives away the hero's inheritance when his mother died, which didn't make any ... Read More Rating:  - Marquis's daughter and the horse trainer"After the Kiss" is the first of a series of books about 'The Notorious Gentlemen'. The hero of this book, Sullivan Waring, isn't exactly notorious - instead he's overlooked. A renowned horse breeder and trainer, despite the rumours that he has an aristocratic natural father he is ignored except for his expertise with horses. Lady Isabel Chalsey can't overlook him though - not when she catches him red-handed burgling her family's house. But Isabel doesn't want to see him hung or transported, not when he ... Read More Rating:  - Forbidden fruitAs stated by many other reviewers, I have been disappointed in a number of Suzanne Enoch's recent books. I accidently read this series out of order starting with Before the Scandal, having bought them together on Amazon and assuming a book title beginning with "Before" would precede a book beginning with "After." While I enjoyed Before the Scandal, I LOVED After the Kiss. It pairs two unlikely central characters, an unacknowledged bastard son of aristocracy, Sullivan, with an aristocratic ... Read More Rating: - the book girl reviews After The KissThis is the beginning of a new series by Suzanne Enoch. I really love how the title fits into the book. After the kiss is exactly when the book takes place. Lady Isabel encounters Sullivan as he is robbing her home and the only way he thinks of to distract her is by kissing her. Lady Isabel comes across a little spoiled and bratty in the beginning of the book, but changes throughout the book as she falls in love and comes to realize what is important. Sullivan is living his life for revenge, but he too comes ... Read More |
