Sinful Confessions Cynfell Brothers Book 1 edition by Samantha Holt Literature Fiction eBooks

I see this read is still a freebie and if you've never read Samantha Holt let this be your first book. You have nothing to lose but your heart. Julian Cynfell, Marquess of Lockwood, has been married three times and all three wives have died. It is rumored that he is the cause and so he avoids going into public. It is through letters to a woman in New York (a business associate's daughter) that he forms a relationship. What he does not see coming is her sudden appearance on his doorstep not only shocks him but his disheveled appearance is sure to make her flee.

Viola Thompson comes under the impression she was invited and is soon to receive a marriage purposal. She leaves behind her in America a sick father, disappointed brothers and a hopeless past. She has had her share of disappointment but after the wonderful words that spilled out in every letter written by Julian her future looks bright. The whole story is endearing from start to finish. Julian is not written as some horny rogue but as a gentleman and I for one thought it a breath of fresh air. I do not mean to say that there are not love scenes or that Julian kept his clothes on during. He turned up the heat but does not do it with charming words or seductive moves.

In fact while Julian is talented with a pen and paper he struggles expressing the same silky charm with his mouth. That to me was charming. He is not practiced or frivolous but a man who has real flaws and I enjoyed the two discover what they could build together. The book is short but SH once again delivers a convincing romance between two that are both staring down a dark future apart. Enjoy!!

Sinful Confessions Cynfell Brothers Book 1 edition by Samantha Holt Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

Julian Cynfell is a broken man. We all face trials, heartbreak and devastation during various times in our lives and these events are part of the fabric which shapes us. They not only cause a profound impact on how we view our lives but form the very foundation of the way we perceive ourselves and are at the essence of how our individual personalities develop.
Julian is a gentleman who allows a pattern of repetitive negative occurrences to forever alter his future interactions and behaviors. Thus, he deliberately chooses to give them direct control over his day to day existence. He concludes that he ought to be punished and as a result he retreats to his country estate and deliberately isolates himself from the activities he once enjoyed. He no longer travels to London, entertains nor accepts invitations from his friends.
Once determined that he must suffer for the remainder of his life he quietly constructs his daily routine to insure that eventuality. The only ray of light in an otherwise dismal existence derives from the letters he exchanges with Violet Pennington who is the daughter of a wealthy business merchant he has known many years whose health & circumstances have altered. Consequently, he and Viola begin to exchange letters which he is quite content to do since she and her family reside conveniently on the far Eastern seaboard of the United States.
Always able to elucidate himself far more eloquently using the written word as opposed to verbal expression he easily engages in lengthy correspondence with Violet that eventuality turns into a period of years.
He feels safe in doing so knowing there are leagues of ocean and many miles of land between countries that will insure they're kept apart.
Yet much as a sudden squall or freak thunderstorm can bring utter devastation so can life. It's surprises often devastate and wreak havoc upon life's plans thus forcing unexpected changes.
Such events affect Viola and Julian with the suddenness of an inexplicably falling tree or great gusts of wind and even the unpredictable lightning strike.
Much like the fear an unexpected knock by a stranger causes us during the night. Julian's isolation is shattered by a knock upon his door with consequences he neither expected not desired.
The year is 1895. Viola is a brassy, strong-willed American and travels to England all by herself in order to meet the nobleman she’s been corresponding with via mail for the past six months. She’s fallen half in love with the charming marquis and plans to accept his marriage proposal. The man she officially meets, however, is nothing like the man in the letter. And she soon learns he didn’t propose to her.
Julian, Marquis of Lockwood, is a grumpy, temperamental recluse after the deaths of his three wives. The gossipy townsfolk believe he’s cursed, and he thinks this as well. He never expected the woman he’s been sending letters to would come to England, and though he knows he should send her away for both her safety from him and to protect her reputation, he just can’t do it. Like Viola, he’s fallen for her, too, but does not intend to honor his heart.
This is a beautiful love story. Julian’s fear of himself and his shame of losing each woman he had promised to take care of will clench your heart in a vise. He’s such a hurt, stubborn man, and he needed a strong woman to help him break from his shell. Viola has her own problems and past shames, but Julian didn’t mind. They both needed each other and found a love match.
Though this is a novella that focused just on the H/h, I really wish I could’ve met one or more of Julian’s younger brothers. I definitely didn’t like his haughty mother and wished I could’ve seen Julian put her in her place, instead of just being told he did so. The servants in the household were kind, decent and loyal, and I really liked their interactions with both Viola and Julian.
Written in British English, all POV shifts had proper scene/chapter breaks, and I don’t think I noticed any typos. I really enjoyed the author’s writing style and would love to read more stories in the Cynfell Brothers series.
