“You’re strong, Adele. Stronger than you think.” Rand’s voice was low but reassuring.

“I’m not.” She tucked her head, fighting not only the pain but all of her doubts. “When I think about--”

“I don’t take sugar in my tea.” His voice interrupted her.

Adele inhaled and then furrowed her brows.

“When I came into your father’s store. I never needed three quarters of the items I purchased.” He shrugged. “You asked me to distract you.”

With the discomfort of her last pain easing, she pondered his words.

“But why--?”

“And even if I had, I could have sent a servant to make my purchases.”

He had dipped his chin so he could see her face, and when she slid her gaze in his direction, she found him staring at her with raised brows.

Review by Mod E

Why yes, I am still working through the RITA finalists and am a sucker for a pun-based title. 

Genre/Category: Historical, finalist in the RITA’s Historical Short Catagory

Major Trope: Fake Marriage turned real

Is He An Ass? Yes, of the dumbass variety. There’s a major plot point that could have been resolved if the hero had bothered to find out what happened to an old flame, but he chose to wallow in his major daddy issues for ten years instead. (Spoiler: he also thought she was pregnant with his child and yet still does not bother to find out what happened. Actually, let’s just upgrade him to full Ass.)

Smut? Glowing. It’s rather euphemistic but there’s a fair amount of it throughout the book, which is fun for a historical.  

Other thoughts? The hero is so dense, he doesn’t even realize he loves the heroine until the last scene after a poisoning/kidnapping/rescue plot that is smushed into the last two chapters and comes totally out of nowhere. Frankly, she deserves better.
