Highland Spy

London, February, 1605

Ariana Fitzroy has lost everything her fortune and family. Connor Grant is the trainer of fallen women from the English court and personal assassin for the King. Connor was missing a girl another spy and despised he had to find another to train.  Additionally to add to his list of fallen women. His guilt was heavy and lists were getting long.

This is the first book of Madeline Martin's new series and trilogy. It's about fallen women that becomes an all female spy ring.

You can feel Ariana and Connor’s chemistry right from the get go and it definitely a heart puller! When you hear their back grounds, have the Kleenex ready as you will need them. The villain’s are dark, creepy, sadistic and cruel as expected, but no spoilers. You will have to read the book to find out more.

Ms. Martin really outdid herself in this  new first installment as it was truly wonderful. The settings were breathtaking, plus a phenomenal dialogue that will knock your socks off!   The fast paced page turning plots have your stomach in knots !  As you truly didn't know what to anticipate next!

I have been reading Ms. Martin since her debut as an author. This book truly blew me away as I have loved all her books. I felt this book was more intense and had more depth and emotion. I seriously could not put this book down it was that fabulous!

I voluntarily reviewed this book which was given to me by the publisher and author through netgalley.com. All words, thoughts and ideas are my own.
