The Impostor : The Liar's Club

Rating:
Summary: A GREAT READ
Review: This book was just plain GOOD!!! After having read the latest historicals (which were dissapointing); Celeste Bradley's "The Impostor" was a much needed treat.
It was fun, romantic, intriguing...
Dalton Montmorency, is on his first Liar's mission. Having been a spy for the British government before, this is nothing new to him, but if he wants to be included in the Liar's circle, he's better not botch it. Masquerading as foppish (Sir Thorogood), the manly Marquess, plans to bring the cartoonist out of hiding. He never planned on meeting "air-head" widow Clara Simpson, nor falling for the misterious maid Rose.
This book is full of surprises, and both characters are extremely likable and real.
DO NOT MISS THIS ONE!!!!

Summary: 4 and a half stars
Review: This is a strong novel in the Liars' series. The heroine is suitably mature yet unaware of her attractiveness, while the hero is compellingly serious and lacking experience. I like these rather shy heroes, as their internal struggle with their feelings seem more credible than artificial obstacles from the outside.

The triple dual identity plot is fun, and so is the slow unmasking. The scene at the Club in their second erotic meeting is great. The heroine is not too aggressive, while the hero is sexy and endearing. The ending as in the rest of this series and many romance suspense novels, get too convoluted and unncessarily complicated (why does she resist him so, really?) but the very end is satisfying. These are two smart people who deserve each other, unlike many a silly heroine or brutish hero. A nice sequel to the Pretender.
