À propos de ce titre

USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell’s Wicked Wallflowers series burns hot as two rivals meet in the flesh and feel the heat...

Adair Thorne has just watched his gaming-hell dream disappear into a blaze of fire and ash, and he’s certain that his competitors, the Killorans, are behind it. His fury and passion burn even hotter when he meets Cleopatra Killoran, a tart-mouthed vixen who mocks him at every turn. If she were anyone else but the enemy, she’d ignite a desire in him that would be impossible to control.

No one can make Cleopatra do anything. That said, she’ll do whatever it takes to protect her siblings—even if that means being sponsored by their rivals for a season in order to land a noble husband. But she will not allow her head to be turned by the infuriating and darkly handsome Adair Thorne.

There’s only one thing that threatens the rules of the game: Cleopatra’s secret. It could unravel the families’ tenuous truce and shatter the unpredictably sinful romance mounting between the hellion…and a scoundrel who could pass for the devil himself.

The chemistry between the protagonists is seductive and palpable, with their family history of hatred played against their personal similarities and growing attraction to create an atmospheric and captivating romance.”—Publishers Weekly

A quick read with an interesting premise, but it felt like there was a story beforehand that I should've read first.

While this is the first book in a series, The Hellion was almost too confusing for a reader who hasn't read any of the author's previous books.
There were so many characters & plots mentioned I had no clue about, which made the first half of the book drag on a little.

But I liked the premise, and Cleopatra was a refreshing FMC for a Historical Romance.

I couldn't fully feel invested in the characters, but that could also be because of my mood, and I was zoning out a lot while listening.

I’d still say give this book a shot if you crave a Historical Romance.
Bonus points for the audiobook also being free on KU!

Good Historical Romance but didn't feel like the first book in a series

Die Geschichte schildert die Rivalität zwischen zwei rivalisierenden Familien im Spielhöllengeschäft. Sie haben eine Art Waffenstillstandsabkommen geschlossen, bei dem die junge Frau der einen Familie mit Unterstützung der anderen Familie in die Gesellschaft eingeführt werden soll, um einen „titled husband“ zu bekommen. In dieser Zeit gibt es andauernd gegenseitig Empfindlichkeiten, Misstrauen und Vorwürfe, das geht auf Dauer auf die Nerven.

Ewiges Hin und Her
