I've given this a B- at AAR, so 3.5 stars rounded up
This, the third book in Ms Campbell’s Sons of Sin series , is one I’ve been looking forward to. I enjoyed meeting the very proper and austere Duke of Sedgemoor in the other books, and had high hopes for his story.
The last thing Camden Rothermere needs, in the opinion of his childhood friend, Penelope Thorne – is to ally himself with a family whose name is a byword for scandal. And she tells Cam so in no uncertain terms when she turns down h ...more

Dagnabit. This one had so much potential and a lot of steamy parts but OMG she won't marry him because he won't love her even though she loves him and he wants to marry her but she won't marry him and their reputations and their familys' reputations and repeat ad nauseum. Also, the being ripped out of the story and dropped into the the subplot was so jarring. It didn't work and all the issues just got so jumbled up, it got ridiculous. Still far from the worst romance I've read and I liked all th

Review from 2014
A for narration / B for content - 4.5 stars.
Camden Rothermere, future Duke of Sedgemoor is young, handsome, rich – and completely stunned when Penelope Thorne turns down his proposal of marriage. He and Pen have known each other almost all their lives, and while the Sedgemoor title has been tarnished in recent years by the very public way in which his parents’ marriage has disintegrated, it’s one of the oldest in the kingdom. Cam is determined to force the polite world to forget ...more

In this charming twist on a marriage plot, Camden Rothermere, the Duke of Sedgemoor has asked his childhood friend, Penelope Thorne, to marry him. She refuses and runs off to live on the Continent with her aunt. Pen fears her disreputable family’s reputation will sully him, while Cam, a stickler for correctness, is fighting to restore the reputation of his own.
Stunned by Pen’s refusal, Cam endeavours to forget her and years pass. But when Pen’s brother’s dying plea sends him to Italy to bring he ...more

Didn't really like either Pen or Cam. Pen was a complete martyr and Cam just got angry at everything. Only bright spot was Harry and Sophie's romance, which at first was an annoyance as it interrupted the main story but then became the only thing I liked.

Excellent narration. Would have been a 5-star read if not for all the Harry/Sophie scenes. It felt like filler about secondary characters who were rightly described as nitwits.
