Book Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
It's been a while since I've enjoyed a regency as much as I enjoyed Anne Mallory's Three Nights of Sin; the characters are perfect, the plot interesting and the romance captivating.
Marietta's brother has been arrested and named the Middlesex murderer, she turns to Gabriel who promises to help her clear the family name in exchange for three unnamed favours. Marietta must live with him while he investigates the case and play numerous roles throughout the enquiry.
Marietta Winters is a sharp character, she's described as plain though Gabriel thinks not, she's clever and speaks her mind. Having been poor since her parents died she's used to mucking in to get the job done. Shrewd and more than a little nosy she drives the plot and enriches Gabriel's character.
Gabriel is dark, manipulative and hides secrets from his past. His manipulation of Marietta is so cleverly done that while it's obvious to both the reader and her it doesn't make the reader dislike him. Manipulation is his way of gaining power, something he has worked hard to recover since it was stolen from him as a youth. His secrets are heartbreaking and the way that both he and Marietta deal with them is artfully done. Enthralled by him I just couldn't get enough, such a sexy and intriguing character.
There's so much chemistry in this book that the pages burn; initially they dislike each other and I often find it's difficult to maintain chemistry when the hero and heroine are at odds. This is not the case here. Mallory writes from Marietta's point of view at great length from the opening page, very slowly she begins to show us Gabriel's thoughts which is very cunning device and succeeds in not giving away too much too soon. As the sections with Gabriel's point of view increase and begin to harmonise with Marietta's then so does the chemistry increase, building slowly and then rushing into an onslaught of feeling.
The search for the real Middlesex Murderer scrapes away at Gabriel's secrets and irrevocably links Marietta to him. Even the mystery was well written - throwing in twists and turns until the real, and totally unexpected, killer is revealed
Three Nights of Sin is a dark romance, holding extremes of emotion and fascinatingly well written characters. This was my first Mallory novel - I now find myself thoroughly hooked and off to buy the rest!
