Yet again, I was on pins and needles with pent up sexual tension between Branford and Alexandra. I was like, "just do it!!"~~ while also reveling in the fact that they are taking things slow and meaningfully forging a bond that is more than just a marriage of convenience and strategic ploy. It made their relationship realistic and believable seeing Alexandra struggle with adjusting to court life and what her place with Branford... And Branford, witnessing him come undone with the harsh realities that Alexandra endured compared to his privileged life and falling more in entranced with her innocence and beauty and exposing her to his own jaded past was wonderful. I enjoy that he has flaws and is far from perfect but at least he's trying.

Can't wait for bk3!!

My Rating:
 Excerpt 

Scheming.
Traitorous.
Liar.
When we reached the door to our rooms, Branford threw it open and pushed me inside.  My body screamed for me to run—either back out the door or at least to the other side of the room—but my mind knew the action would be fruitless.  With a push from Branford’s palm on my back, I was jarred against the wall in the morning room.
Before I could turn, I heard Branford’s roar followed by a crashing sound, and I nearly threw myself right out the eastward-facing window.  He had lifted one of the couches and thrown it into the wall near the fireplace, breaking off chunks of the wooden legs and causing it to collapse in a heap.  I could see his hands grabbing for the small table next to the door right before he flung it toward me.  It splintered into pieces against the stone, and I finally found my voice long enough to scream.
“I just want to know how”—Branford snarled as he slowly stalked closer—“how in the world did you do it?  How did you get me to pick you?  Did Edgar plant nothing but spies in his audience?  Tell me!”
He grabbed a large log from the stack near the fire and flung it into the shutters of the window, causing further damage as he marched across the room.  He towered over me as I raised my arms up to protect my head and face.
“Please, Branford!” I cried.  “I’m sorry…I’m sorry…”
Branford’s fist slammed into the wall right next to my head, and I screamed again.  There was no point in trying to explain—it would have been the same as when the carriage driver had begged for mercy, and there was no one here to stay Branford’s hand.  I had no doubt that he was going to kill me.
“Tell me how!” he screamed right next to my head, and I jumped.  “And to think I was buying that innocent little servant girl act of yours!”
“No…Branford…I didn’t…I swear…”
“No more lies!”  Again, his fist hit the wall next to me, and I squeezed my eyes shut.  Tears flowed freely down my cheeks, but I made no move to stop them.  I tried to cover my head with my arms, but Branford grabbed my wrists and held them to my sides.  “How did you do it?  How did you get past all my senses?”
