INVITATION TO RUIN
by Bronwen Evans
Genre: England, Historical Romance
Sensuality: HHHHH HOT
Setting: 1808 London
RT Rating 4.5 Stars
Here’s a fast-paced story filled with snappy dialogue, action and a tortured hero that will delight the reader as much as he delights the heroine. A strong heroine, some wonderful secondary characters and a villain who is truly evil help move the story forward. Readers will laugh and cry as they and the protagonists learn that your past does not necessarily dictate your future and that love heals all wounds.

Invitation to Ruin is a classical historical romance, with a bit of naughtiness to it. The history is good, but not heavy at all. I know, I like the historical more than some, but I can’t help it, I like the feeling of escape while still understanding all of the setting. Anthony is a dark hero, or at least thinks he is, but nicely redeemed in the end. And Miss Goodly comes through for us all. Reading the Courtesan’s book to learn how to please one’s husband is great! I love that she isn’t sure some of the book is possible, lol. The bad guy is pure evil, and I didn’t like the cousin or brother from the beginning (not that we are suppose to). I loved Anthony’s brother and best friend (Rufus) and would love to read their stories. Especially since Richard set Anthony up, it would only be fair for him to be caught in the wedding trap somehow.
Invitation to Ruin may take a little to get into the grove, but once it hooks you, you don’t want to put it down until the end! This is why we love romance, and historical as well. We all want our guys to be just as dashing, maybe not as brooding, but still love to read about them.

Readers will laugh and cry as they and the protagonists learn that your past does not necessarily dictate your future and that love heals all wounds. Anthony Craven, the Earl of Wickham, aka The Lord of Wicked, is about to pursue his favorite pastimes, sin and vice. On his way to his assignation he winds up in the wrong room, that of Miss Melissa Goodly, a 21-year-old virgin. When they’re caught, Anthony has no choice but to marry Melissa. Many hope that this is just what Anthony needs to turn him from his current path of self-destruction. Anthony leaves Melissa on their wedding night. Each time they are in the same room Anthony’s attraction for his wife grows, but he has vowed to never father a child in order to end what he believes is the evil in the family bloodline. The only thing Melissa hopes for out of this marriage is a child. She is determined to break through Anthony’s icy reserve. When a dark shadow from Anthony’s past kidnaps Melissa, he might lose her before he has a chance to tell her that he has fallen in love with her.
