More like 3.5* This book started very slow and because of that I had a hard time getting into it, but after a while it did finally catch my interest. It was about on par with the first one (the first started better, but this one developed the romance better). I am glad that Sterling and Isobel made an appearance, even if it was just a small one. I am still a fan of this series and am looking forward to the next book. While there was nothing about this book that made it special and I found the "Seven Deadly Sins" theme cliche, it was a pleasure to read. This is the kind of romance novel that makes you sigh with happiness when you finish the last page, the type of novel that is truly a delight to fans of romance. The couple doesn't argue the entire time. In fact, the only arguing was the female protagonist's, Ivy's, arguing with herself and her emotions. This is quite refreshing among the endless stream of novels where the couples are always butting heads and arguing to the point that I want to rip my hair out.The only problem I had was Ivy's behavior. I have read so many historical novels where the women act as free as the women today. It's irritating. If those women really acted that way, then they would be complete outcasts of society no matter what their status or money. I am also sure that the menfolk would simply not allow such behavior.The male protagonist, Dominic Sheridan, stole my heart away. He was sweet and endearing to Ivy, that it grabbed my heart strings. At first, it was amusing to watch the two's playful banter, and then watch how their behavior changed so subtly when the two began to fall in love. It was cute.I actually liked the light-hearted feel of this novel so much, I rented the other two currently published.
What do You think about The Most Wicked Of Sins (2009)?
