Review: The Heir by Grace Burrowes

An earl who can't be bribed...

Gayle Windham, earl of Westhaven, is the first legitimate son and heir to the duke of Moreland. To escape his father's inexorable pressure to marry, he decides to spend the summer at his townhouse in London, where he finds himself intrigued by the secretive ways of his beautiful housekeeper...
A lady who can't be protected...

Anna Seaton is a beautiful, talented, educated woman, which is why it is so puzzling to Gayle Windham that she works as his housekeeper.

As the two draw closer and begin to lose their hearts to each other, Anna's secrets threaten to bring the earl's orderly life crashing down-and he doesn't know how he's going to protect her from the fallout...

I really enjoyed reading this book.  I have been in the Historical mood lately, so this book filled my appitite.   The characters were well written, even the more minor characters were pleasing to read about.  The plot was there and it was also pretty good.  Anna has some secrets she hides from everyone but her sister, but the earl wants to hear those secrets.  The Heir is pretty steamy with the sex scenes. 

If you like Historical Romances this is a book you will want to read.  It was good all around (characters, plot, scenes, writing style..). Also, keep your eyes open for more to come from Burrowes because THE HEIR is the first book in the series. 

2nd book- THE SOLDIER releases in Spring 2011
3rd book- VIRTUOSO releases in Fall 2011
