With her headful of wild curls and wilder ideas and an unabashed love of experiments and explosives, society has labeled Lady Imogen Loveless peculiar…and doesn’t know she’s one of the Hell’s Belles—a group of vigilantes operating outside the notice of most of London.
Thomas Peck is not most of London. The brilliant detective fought his way off the streets and into a promising career through sheer force of will and a keen ability to see things others miss, like the fact that Imogen isn’t peculiar…she’s pandemonium. If you ask him, she requires a keeper. When her powerful family discovers her late-night activities, they couldn’t agree more…and they know just the man for the task.
Thomas wants nothing to do with guarding Imogen. He is a grown man with a proper job and no time for the lady’s incendiary chaos, no matter how lushly it is packaged. But some assignments are too explosive to pass up, and the gruff detective is soon caught up in Imogen’s world, full of her bold smiles and burning secrets…and a fiery passion that threatens to consume them both.
5 STARS
Imogen was worth reading the whole story. She was a hoot, one of a kind ! She loved people with her whole heart even knowing that most don't really understand her. She also hates bullies and injustice with her whole heart too. She's an important part of the group of Hell's Belle's too. The rest of the group is pretty interesting also.
Thomas is stern, uncompromising and totally mystified by Imogen. And of all things she is impertinent with him, calling him Tommy. He's fighting it but as more times goes on, he's also more and more intrigued by her. He's never met anyone like her before and he's unsure what to do with her. Yes, even though she and her group have helped him in their own way to bust some really evil people. They got the evidence so that he could follow through and make the arrests.
The story keeps getting more and more surprises cropping up and so do some unpredictable attacks as well. The biggest surprise comes towards the end.
I liked how the story ended and also gave a quick glance into the story about Duchess and the very big secret she has been hiding. Sounds like another good story.
