Review & Giveaway: A Reckless Promise by Kasey Michaels
A Reckless Promise
The Little Season #3
Kasey Michaels
July 26th 2016 | HQN Books
London's Little Season has never been so scandalous
It's the kind of vow often made on the battlefield. Darby Travers, Viscount Nailbourne, never imagines he'll have to honor it. Yet here she is on his doorstep—his late comrade's young daughter, and Darby's new ward. Worse, she comes with the most overprotective, mistrustful, bothersome chaperone—the child's aunt, Sadie Grace Boxer. Darby is quite sure that behind her lovely facade, the woman is guarding a secret.
Sadie Grace faced many trials working in her brother's surgery, but none prepared her for the world she's thrust into with his passing. Navigating the ton, with its endless ball gowns and parade of parties, is difficult enough, but hiding the truth about her niece while the sophisticated viscount watches her every move proves nearly impossible—particularly when his searing gaze tempts her to bare all. But when her family's past catches up with her, she'll have to trust in Darby…no matter the cost to her heart.

Lately I've been enjoying the historical's I've been reading. A plus for me because in the last year or so they've (historical's) have been hit or miss for me.
Since I already enjoy Kasey Michael's and have read the second book in this series, A Scandalous Proposal I was pretty sure I would like A Reckless Promise too.
I was right!
In fact, I think I liked it even more then A Scandalous Proposal. I love when that happens. I want to like each book a little bit more. That's why I like series, I get involved in that world and it feels like home.
I think you'll really enjoy the characters and the mystery that comes with this story. Darby is one of the soldiers that was held prisoner during the war. He also is the one who promised the doctor that if anything happened to him he'd take care of his child.
Not exactly a new story line. What kept it fresh is the characters. You don't mind a tired story line when you've got characters that you've loved.
I really think you'll like this next installment of the Little Season Series. I know I did.
If you've reading A Reckless Promise or anything else by Kasey Michaels I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for visiting with me and happy reading!
