The Spymaster's Lady ...



The Spymaster's Lady
By Joanna Bourne

She's braved battlefields. She's stolen dispatches from under the noses of heads of state. She's played the worldly courtesan, the naïve virgin, the refined British lady, even a Gypsy boy. But Annique Villiers, the elusive spy known as the Fox Cub, has finally met the one man she can't outwit...

British spymaster Robert Grey must enter France and bring back the brilliant, beautiful-and dangerous-Fox Cub. His duty is to capture her and her secrets for England. When the two natural enemies are thrown into prison, they forge an uneasy alliance to break free. But their pact is temporary and betrayal seems inevitable as the fates of nations hang in the balance.



Comment :
Is it suspense? or historical romance? I guess both. Whatever, It's one of the finest book I've read (and I've read so many many books!)
Romance biasanya simple, alurnya mudah ditebak, sedikit surprise, and this is it... happily ever after! I guess that's why we read romance, we love a happily ever after ending, we love to be cinderella, even just for an hour.
Spymaster's lady berbeda, terkadang aku ragu, apakah ada wedding bell di ujung kisah (meskipun tentu saja ini romance, dan pakemnya tidak akan berubah). Hanya saja, ada banyak surprising scene yang dihadirkan Joanna, yang tidak biasa untuk sebuah romance.

I rated 4.5 stars
(enough to say, this is a wonderful amazing story!)
