The mystery woman is Penelope Wherlocke, and her special gift of sight is leading her deep into a dangerous world of treachery and betrayal.

But Penelope is no ordinary woman, and she's never met a man strong enough to contend with her unusual abilities. Until now.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Starts out with a good attention grabber and keeps my attention throughout. I liked the sense of family and friends working together to fight the seedy side. Lord Ashton is spending the night before his betrothal in a brothel where he is given Penelope who he finds has been drugged.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Enjoyable if somewhat tepid romance. The hero and heroine are curiously passive. The villains are cartoonish in their perfidy. The underlying premise of the series (an eccentric family, each gifted with supernatural powers) is interesting enough that I'd try another book by this author.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This was my first time reading a book by Hannah Howell. She's one of those authors I've been wanting to read for along time. I'm glad I did too, this book was an enjoyable read. This is the 2nd book in the series. I don't usually read book series out of order, but I had no trouble following along with this installment. If He's Sinful, pulled me in with the intrigue behind the Wherlocke family gifts and the beautiful romance between Lord Ashton and Penelope. If you love Historicals, I don't doubt you'll enjoy this one too.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5"Absoutly amazing! I started this book when I got home from work and it held me captive till the last page at 1am this morning
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Better then the first one a definate fairytale romance
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I'm really glad to see Howell moving away from her Murray series and into new territory. Though I am concerned that she's planning to exchange one large, eccentric family for another.
I enjoyed this for the most part. I was annoyed that the characters seemed to act so slowly, for it's obvious early on who the villain is. even so, I understood their reasons - they couldn't act without proof. It just seemed it took them a rather long time to realize they needed to get it.
Penelope was a typical Howell heroine - strong and feisty. I really enjoyed her.
Ashton was somewhat of a stick-in-the-mud, but I think that worked within the context of the story.
Although there are many dark elements, the novel is lightened by Penelope's brothers and cousins. I really want to read about the rest of Ashton's friends, especially Brant.
************
I re-read this after reading the 3rd book, If He's Wild, and enjoyed it even more the second time. Ashton didn't seem quite so staid in this book, and Penelope's large family cracked me up. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The gifted kids bring life to this story. The heroine is much beset by recurring calamities.. the heroines in this series are all virgins who are all too willing to give up their innocence to the hero outside of marriage. Makes you wonder about the morals of these characters. (?)
