Title: Folly
Author: Sabrina York
Format: Ebook
Synopsis: Widowed and
threatened with penury by her heartless in-laws, Eleanor—Lady Ulster—hatches a
plot to save herself. Determined to produce the Ulster “heir”, she seduces a
stranger at a tawdry masquerade. Little does she know, this magnificent masked
lover is none other than her husband’s greatest nemesis. And God knows Ulster
had plenty.
Ethan Pennington is mortified to arrive at a house
party and discover Lady Ulster in attendance. He has wanted her and hated wanting
her—his enemy’s bride—for years. When he overhears Eleanor’s predicament and
her plans to place a cuckoo in the Ulster nest, he is more than willing to
oblige. The opportunity to finally claim her—while taking the revenge he
craves—is more than he can resist. Ethan strikes a bargain with Eleanor,
promising to provide her with the heir she so desperately needs…if she will
meet his needs in return. Every decadent one of them.
Review: Still unknown to Portuguese readers, Sabrina
York was, for me, a wonderful surprise. The author, who has several books
published, is gifted in the way she writes her stories. Fun, dynamic and sexy,
these are the first three adjectives that come to my mind to qualify this book.
The 119 pages are all that it takes for the author to show her quality on the
way she creates empathy between the reader and her characters. I think Sabrina
has a lot of courage to try her luck and create a story which is no longer an
innovation, but she takes mysterious ways that only increases the reader curiosity
to keep reading and discover what will be happening next.
The story is simple and glamorous at same time, with a
plot similar to other great authors like Emma Wildes and Cheryl Holt, but it
becomes special and unique because it doesn’t have a lot of fillers that
sometimes destroy great stories. So, in my opinion, the author has made a great
choice by telling us only what mattered in order to continue the story.
About the characters, Ethan was my favorite. The
typical alpha male, who loves to see women on his feet and one day he meets
someone you can finally tame him. I enjoyed the scene where he finds Charles
kissing Eleanor, it was so funny to see how angry he was… Eleanor, whose
character was so week at the beginning, slowly shows what she can do for her
happiness. They make a great couple.
In the end, I stayed curious about James and
Helena…there authors are so naughty!!! For that and for liking this book so
muck I want to read another book by Sabrina York. Congratulations, you have
another fan.
Thank you Ana!
