About the book
“Don’t look at him, dear. He’s
dangerous.”
Isabella Bankmill seeks a husband whose
character matches her list of requirements. The man must share her
faith, but he must also possess a certain je ne sais quoi. The
enigmatical Lord Gregory Gordon Bromby—London’s newest literary
sensation—certainly possesses the latter. Despite a deformed foot
and alarming views on politics and religion, he attracts the ladies
in droves.
Haunted by his past and overwhelmed by
his newfound celebrity status, Lord Bromby’s obsession with his own
doom leads to reckless behavior. When he is stalked by an obsessive
aristocrat seeking an elopement, Bromby’s friends urge him to marry
a suitable lady as soon as possible. Intrigued by Isabella’s
convictions and hoping to avoid further scandal, Bromby proposes to
Isabella.
Isabella also receives an offer of
marriage from kind-hearted philanthropist, David Beringer—a man
equally devoted to his faith—but she only has eyes for Lord Bromby.
Blinded by his talent and good looks, Isabella convinces herself that
he’s not as dangerous as everyone claims. But when Bromby’s world
violently collides with hers, Isabella must decide once and for all
who is lord of her life. God or Bromby?
What I thought about the book
I found Dangerous to Know an enjoyable story, and hard to put down. I enjoyed that it is set in historic England. I enjoy historical novels, so this was a good fit for me. I hope you'll check it out, too.
