BOOK REVIEW- The Marquess Who Kissed Me (#14, The Valiant Love Regency Romance) by Deborah Wilson

   



This was quite a different type of story with plenty of darkness and sorrow in both of the main characters lives.  Some of it they were still trying to shake off.  It really did get in the way of love. Oliver really hadn't experienced much love in his life growing up with such a cruel father..who looks like he might have turned  mad.  He often pitted brother against brother as they were growing up.  Oliver did his best to protect both Leo and Nicholas.  Oliver was full of surprises though, some good ones too even though he didn't think he was a good man.
And the things that Belle went through weren't a picnic either.  Just different kinds of torture.  I liked both of the main characters and the depth that was given them in the story.  Because of the things they both went through this was a pretty emotional story with some adult themes.  It also had some good moments in it as well although the back and forth of mistrust felt like it went on a bit more than I would have liked.  But hey, I get it Trust was a Major issue.  
I did enjoy the end while it felt like a few threads of the story felt left undone.  Maybe for another book?
