Impetuousness at its best -- Highly recommended

Cindy Harris' miniseries Dublin Dreams brings together four penniless women who only have their anonymous benefactor in common. In addition to renovating their new homes and cultivating the central garden, their financial obligations are miraculously released by an unknown benefactor. In this second installment, a young woman estranged from her family invites in the WOLF AT THE DOOR.Millicent Hyde's impulsive nature proves quite problematic. As a child an honest word spoken at the wrong time permanently alienates her father. As an adult, a false word spoken to protect herself from her vicious stepsister results in a fake engagement to Captain Alec Wolferton, the famous Sea Wolf. Now both situations threaten to come to a head as she tries to regain her father's favor and conceal the falsity of her engagement. Never mind she would prefer it to be real.Alec arrives in Dublin with only one goal: to put Colin Rafferty in prison for the rest of his life. That would exonerate Alec and provide sweet revenge as well. On assignment for the War Office who, after fifteen years, now believes in the validity of Alec's claims regarding the incident between him and Colin while setting home aboard ship from Balaklava. Rafferty was stealing soldier's supply and selling them. Now he's guilty of treason and slave trafficking. So when an opportunity presents itself, Alec becomes "engaged" to Millicent, allowing him into the Rafferty's social world and future family. Somehow Alec must avoid guilt for using Millicent as bait, despite his growing attraction.Once again the Dublin Dreams miniseries provides sweet entertainment in the talented hands of author Cindy Harris. The juxtaposition of the brash heroine and the tightly controlled hero results in snappy repartee, peppery characters and strong sexual tension. The motivation of revenge also takes on startling freshness as Alec rethinks his purpose in light of the youth, innocence and trust he finds in Millicent. WOLF A THE DOOR comes highly recommended.
