This novel begins with the hero, Nicholas Saville, Viscount
Redfern, returning to his betrothed hoping for a sweet reunion but
finds things were not as he left them. His fiancée, Helen Barrett,
has grown disenchanted with Redfern's long absences and has decided
to break off their engagement. Redfern tries to explain, but to no
avail, why he had to leave Helen without revealing his dark
secret-that he is beholden to the King's spymaster. Not only has
his love left him, but has fallen under the sinister spell of a
powerful and evil man, Redfern's nemesis, Lord Waring.
Draw moves along at a wonderful pace, as Redfern strives to not
only stop Waring and the deadly Hellfire League from completing
their terrifying mission, but also win back the trust and heart of
his beloved.
Draw is Bellis' second novel and [yet again] she delivers a well
written book filled with adventure, magic, and red-hot romance. In
this book, Bellis not only delights once more with excellent
characters, but displays her growth as an author with the intricate
yet eminently traversable plotline. Filled with all the promised
elements, murder, magic and romance (and more), I found this book
highly satisfying. Well worth the buy!
