My Thoughts:
The Hamilton sisters all found their true loves and now it’s their extended family members turn.
Quiet and intuitive, Lady Mara Reeves has always felt more at home amid the green hills of her native Ireland than in London’s stifling ballrooms. Determined to remain single, she’s adept at gently rebuffing any suitor who comes her way. So why is she so drawn to Foster Sheridan, Earl of Sterling? It’s an impossible connection and unlike anything she’s ever known.
But it’s complicated by one scandalous fact: the man she believes to be her destiny is already married . .
I had never read anything by this author before but after reading this book I just had to find more.
I now have the 5 book Hamilton Sisters series to delve into.
This book drew me in and just didn’t let go.
The characters are well written and the plot keeps your interest.
I liked Foster’s honesty and was pleasantly surprised that he didn’t immediately take advantage of Maura’s willingness to continue with an affair even though He already had a wife even if in name only.
He was not the usual rogue.
I gave this sometimes tragic and other times delightful love story 4.25 of 5.0 stars.
I received a complimentary ARC of this book to read. This in no way affected my opinion of this title which I read and reviewed voluntarily.

When His Kiss Is Wicked
Hamilton Sisters ~ Book I (Colette’s Story)
by Kaitlin O’Riley
ISBN-13 978-1-4201-0446-2
Publisher: Zebra Books
Release Date: April 2009
After her father’s death, Colette Hamilton is left with four sisters, an invalid mother, and a failing bookshop. The only way she can save the family business is with her unconventional ideas… or let her uncle marry her off. As for the handsome stranger in her bookshop? He’s Lucien Sinclair, son of an earl, and a notorious rogue uninterested in marriage.
Unknown to Colette, Lucien has begun an urgent search for a bride, so that his ailing father might see him married before he dies. He knows what he wants – a plain, biddable woman without the curse of beauty to endanger his heart. Yet no matter how he tries, Lucien finds himself unable to stay away from Colette. And as sinful pleasure lures them ever closer to the edge of ruin, the only question that matters is whether they can survive the fall…
Colette Elizabeth Hamilton – WHEN HIS KISS IS WICKED
Colette is the oldest sister, who has always taken care of the family. She’s independent and responsible and fiercely proud of all that she has accomplished in the bookshop to make it a success after their father died. It is through Colette that the fortunes of the Hamilton family change for the better.
Desire in His Eyes
Hamilton Sisters ~ Book II (Juliette’s Story)
For many, the London Season is a whirlwind of sparkling ballrooms, fashionable gowns and stolen glances. For Juliette Hamilton, the second of five sisters, it is nothing but scandal. Unable to contain her wild streak, Juliette is desperate for an escape from the watchful eyes of society. And then the perfect opportunity presents itself in the form of dashing sea captain Harrison Fleming.
When Harrison finds Juliette stowed away on his ship, he’d like nothing more than to return the infuriating, intoxicating woman to her family and get back to the business of amassing his fortune. But it’s too late to change course, so he gives her the next best punishment: the job of his personal servant! Now Juliette is at his beck and call, day and night. And both begin to realize that in such very close quarters her penance may be much more of a pleasure…
Juliette Sara Hamilton – DESIRE IN HIS EYES
As the second oldest, Juliette is wild and impulsive with a bit of a rebellious streak. With no interest in the family bookshop at all, Juliette seeks adventure far beyond the walls of the shop, stopping at nothing to get what she wants.
