The Gentleman Spy by Erica Vetsch is the second book in her Serendipity and Secrets series. A continuation of book one. You can read this as a stand-alone but some parts may not make much sense to you. Marcus Haverly unexpectedly becomes the new Duke of Haverly when his father and older brother are killed in a carriage accident. To keep the London society from looking to closely at his life and discovering his secret identity, he proposes to and marries the spinster, Lady Charlotte. Thinking that his problem is solved he continues his secret work for the Crown. Lady Charlotte now has the means to carry out her passion for helping the down-trodden women of the city. As with any story you have the characters that you love and the ones you hate. This book was no exception. I really enjoyed Marcus’ and Charlotte’s characters. The mothers not so much! The mystery was a carry-over from the previous book. Charlotte’s care of the unfortunate women was very touching. If only everybody could see each other as a child of God and lend a hand instead of judgement, criticism and condemnation.
I received this book from Read with Audra for my honest review.
