Review of Guardian of the Heart by Sorcha MacMurrough

This was an awesome romance, from the moment the couple meet amid a blizzard, to the finale, when all their foes are vanquished and the couple are at last safe.

Arabella thinks she is old enough to look after herself, and has no need of a guardian. But Dr. Blake Sanderson saves her life in more ways than one, as she becomes the toast of the Town, but also the target of two depraved fortune hunters who insinuate themselves into the family circle, the better to get her fortune, and do w…more This was an awesome romance, from the moment the couple meet amid a blizzard, to the finale, when all their foes are vanquished and the couple are at last safe.

Arabella thinks she is old enough to look after herself, and has no need of a guardian. But Dr. Blake Sanderson saves her life in more ways than one, as she becomes the toast of the Town, but also the target of two depraved fortune hunters who insinuate themselves into the family circle, the better to get her fortune, and do what they do to all women, whom they deem ‘whores’.

As Arabella falls more and more in love with Blake,and his resolve to be her guardian, not her lover, melts with every passing minute, their enemies close in.

Blake has never trusted or truly loved a woman in his life, but Arabella is irresistible, and the sensuality they share is beyond passion to a complete obsession.

But just when Arabella seems as if she about to get her happily ever after ending, she is attacked and loses her memory, and soon Blake finds himself up on charges of murdering his past lovers.

Is the doctor really all that he seems? Arabella must trust to love if she is ever to save both their lives.

This book has it all, heat, passion, some terrible villains, and a pageturning, edge of your seat conclusion. I LOVED the couple together, and think that this is EXACTLY what romance should be, a hero and heroine with real issues and feelings, (not cardboard cut outs having silly spats) falling in love against all odds. Awesome love scenes, spicy and sexy!
