Deborah (162 KP) rated The Elusive Bride (Black Cobra Quartet #2) in Books
Dec 21, 2018
This had all the romance you would expect from a Laurens book, plus enough swashbuckling adventure for Boys Own! Our hero, Gareth must make his way from India back to England by a prescribed route to deliver the scroll he carries to Wolvestone - the one powerful enough to bring down the Black Cobra. Gareth, along with Miss Emily Ensworth, who is also being pursued by the Black Cobra Cult, make their way by land and sea, fighting off cultists, and at one point a rather predatory female!
As the four couriers all leave India as around the same time and arrive back in England at around the same time too the timelines in each book do intersect, so sometimes an event in a previous book hasn't yet happened - you need to get your beain around that one!
