I love the dynamic between Viola and Devin. We do get to see some of it once she starts getting more comfortable with Devin, which is great. It’s mentioned several times that Viola’s got a razor sharp wit when she’s among just her family, but I wish we’d gotten to see that side of her a little more rather than just hearing about it. She’s a retiring voilet amid a very spirited family, and I adore how protective they are of her. She’s her mother’s daughter from her first marriage and doesn’t feel like a “real” Wilde, which causes some of her anxiety. The Wildes remind me a bit of Julia Quinn’s Bridgertons in that they’re a big, boisterous family that cares more about loving each other (and having some fun…) than they do about standing on ceremony. This is another great installment of Eloisa James’ Wildes of Lindow Castle series. So she’s overjoyed to meet handsome, quiet vicar with no interest in polite society - but just when she catches his attention, her reputation is compromised by a duke.ĭevin Lucas Augustus Elstan, Duke of Wynter, will stop at nothing to marry Viola, including marrying a woman whom he believes to be in love with another man.ĭevin knows he’s no saint, but he’s used to conquest, and he’s determined to win Viola’s heart. Miss Viola Astley is so painfully shy that she’s horrified by the mere idea of dancing with a stranger her upcoming London debut feels like a nightmare.
