Editorial Reviews

Review

"Holy hotness! This is one steamy, sensual, Kindle gripping read. Vivienne Westlake has woven a sexually charged story of lost love, betrayal and second chances. Rowena's inner struggle with whether to keep guarding and protecting her heart...while Simon tries to break the walls down was heart tugging." -Romancing Rakes (romance review blog)

"Rowena and Simon were a delight together, they were so good I wanted more! They really deserved a full-length novel. The pacing was great and the dialogue just right." -Reading Romances & The Romance Reviews

4.0 out of 5 stars Historical greatness November 25, 2011

Fate works in wicked ways, so do little sisters.

Rowena has been widowed now for 3 years and has resigned herself to widowhood at her young age. She has decided to get out and travel with her sister Delphine to their friend Alice's place since she is expecting. Once there, Rowena hears that, Simon, Alice's brother will be joining them for the visit. Rowena is unsure of what to do...Simon was her first love and her rejection from Simon all those years ago still hurt. Can she deal with seeing him again? How will she feel about him?

Simon has been away for a long time fighting in the war over in India and has returned to take over for his ailing uncle and help care for his sister. This is also a perfect time to see if he has waited long enough to seek out his first and only love, Rowena. Will she still care? Does she even wonder about him any longer? Can he forgive her for marrying his best friend in his absence?

I absolutely loved these characters! From the bad-mannered l'il sister Delphine, Rowena the young widow battling with her emotions, to the ever so handsome Simon. I fell for Simon hard! He had me all twisted up with his gentle caring and feverish need for Rowena.

This seems like a light sweet romance at first then all the twists and turns start to play out and you see that things aren't what they seemed, but thankfully fate with a lilttle help from little sisters has a way of putting things right.

When you look at this gorgeous cover you think... Ok this is a historical romance, some like historical and some don't. I'm a closet lover of historical but I will proudly be SCREAMING... "GET YOUR COPY TODAY" you do not need to be a lover of historical to enjoy this book while Vivienne Westlake does a great job of taking us to this place and time. It was such an enjoyable read, I wasn't concentrating on the historical aspects as much as I was so enthralled by the story itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read November 28, 2011

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Lady Northam's Wicked Surrender by author Vivienne Westlake. I will admit I'm not a huge reader of historical romances but this story really drew me in and I had to finish the book in one sitting. Rowena and Simon were once in love but circumstances and miscommunication separated the young lovers. Now, fate brings them face to face again and their feelings for each other are still very much alive after all these years. Rowena and Simon must work through their issues in order to have a future together. After reading this book, I look forward to reading more by this author and I am so glad to hear there will be other books in the near future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Hot March 28, 2013

By Andrea Kelley

Format:Paperback

I found this book to be very interesting. I'm not one to read books with a lot of sexual content but I found it to be written very well. This book defiantly had a lot of sexual descriptive content. I liked that it was a quick and easy read.
