Bless him, he has done so much for his friends, regardless of his own reputation with the Ton. He has an unspoken arrangement with Lady Nuisance but fate has a way of walking all over what practicality may decide is the right thing to do. In this instance, he is besotted with one half of Trouble Two, and Lady Nuisance is besotted with the other. Sounds easy then, right? Wrong!
Ye gods, this man is stubborn! So determined to do the right thing, even to his own detriment. I love him for it, I really do, but I also want to slap him upside the head! Delaney is the perfect match for him because she doesn't care about his title and will go toe-to-toe with him, instead of backing down and deferring to him simply because he has a title.
The only downside for me in here was the story about the blackmailer that just sort of fizzled out. I'm sure I will read more about it as there are hints in here for Simon's story, which sounds like it will be a cracker, but it just felt sort of unfinished.
Plenty in here to keep my attention and the pages turning. A wonderful addition to the series and absolutely recommended by me.

William Sharpe (4 KP) rated American Assassin (2017) in Movies
Sep 30, 2017
The time a dresser fell on my face and tore a piece of my nose off
The time a lady ran a stop sign and I tboned her, the airbag broke my arm and the air cast in the ambulance burst and my arm banged the stretcher with every bump
The time I sat in a emergency room waiting room for 19 hours as my appendix slowly began to rupture and was finally taken to surgery
The times during EVERY surgery when I wake up in the middle of it
Not a comprehensive list, but those are a few things that were less painful than sitting through American Assassin.

The situations Lady Bird finds herself in are real and touch you in your heart especially if you have teenage children. The way she handles things and the way the story winds itself along keep you enthralled the entire time and not wanting it to end.
Highly recommended for those seeking more than just comic book blockbusters.

NOTE: A few may find the sexual element of this book unsettling; however, I think the author was tactful in writing about the taboo subject in this horror novel and handled it very well.
