Lisa/Rogues Under the Covers

Overall, not a bad book just not something overly special. The plot is one that has been used many times before...governess falls for guardian with a child that just needs some good love to be himself. There was a nice little subplot involving some ruins found on the land that adds a bit of intrigue. I am a sucker for Cinderella retellings so I like the glass, or in this case ruby, slipper and the fairy godmother and I also likes how the evil stepsisters and stepmother were not that exact case, but rather some characters that were seen in a smaller dose. Annabelle and Simon have an instant attraction but not much happens with their feelings until the end of the book. And the ending had one last twist that I personally didn't really like. I was actually kind of hoping nothing would be discussed about her parents (as Annabelle is an orphan) for a change but oh well. Its well written and easy to read and I do look forward to what could be next. (Bonus points for the cover matching a scene exactly!) 3 1/2 stars
