When Violet, aka Lady Viper, and Ian Molineaux learn they have been enlisted to break apart the same couple, the two decide, albeit reluctantly, to work together to achieve their shared goal a bit quicker. Each is surprised to find the other to be a match for their ruthless reputation both in and out of bed, but the passion evoked by the enmity between them cannot be denied.
I'm so surprised by how much I loved this novella. Sure, Violet and Ian were a bit ruthless but they were also desperately concealing good hearts longing for love and they tried to use their villainous reputations to help the downtrodden. These two were a perfect match and it was pretty adorable seeing them cautiously open up to one another and establish a relationship that worked for them. I also loved the fact that they each fought for the other in their own way and learned how to communicate in a healthy way that neither of them had previously experienced.
