The Viscount Made Me Do It by Diana Quincy @avonbooks

 

Diana Quincy returns with the second novel in the Clandestine Affairs series with a steamy romance about a London bonesetter of Arab descent who is dangerously attracted to her viscount client.

A seduction that could ruin everything...

Hanna Zaydan has fought to become London’s finest bonesetter, but her darkly appealing new patient threatens to destroy everything she’s worked so hard for. With each appointment, the daughter of foreign merchants is slowly seduced by the mysterious former soldier. She’s smart enough to know Griff is after more than he’ll reveal, but whatever it is, the bonesetter’s growing desire for the man just might tempt her to give it to him.

An attraction that cannot be denied...

Rumors that he killed his own parents have followed Thomas Ellis, Viscount Griffin, practically since he was a boy. More than a decade after the tragedy, Griff receives a tip about his parents’ killer... one that takes him straight to a beautiful bonesetter. Griff is convinced Hanna is a fraud, but she stirs genuine feelings in him that he thought had perished along with his family.

Hanna has a gift for fixing fractured people, but can she also mend a broken heart? More importantly, will Griff let her?

My Review

The Viscount Made Me Do It by Diana Quincy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I did not expect the mystery that we got along with Hanna and Griff's story. But I enjoyed all of it. Seeing a woman who is not the usual heroine was great. Hanna is of Arab descent, practices a healing skill, and she is a strong woman.

Hanna Zaydan is a bonesetter. A skill she learned from her father. She enjoys helping people feel better even though her family might not be exactly thrilled about it. Her new patient seems a little skeptical about what she can do for him.

Viscount Griffin has been seeking to find out who killed his parents. A tip leads him to the bonesetter. He sees a necklace that belonged to his mother around her neck and uses his injury as a way to get close to her.

When he confesses his initial reasons for seeking her out Hanna decides to help him. They scour her father's meticulous notes to see who paid with the stolen jewelry. And of course the more time they spend together the stronger their attraction grows.


Thanks so much to the author, Avon, and Netgalley for this ARC to review.
