REVIEW: THE KING’S MAN by ALISON STUART
Kit Lovell is a disillusioned Royalist who whiles away his time cheating at cards, living off his mistress and planning the death of the one man he despises more than anyone in the world: Oliver Cromwell. Kit spends his days and nights plotting and thinking up ways of getting rid of this most cruel of enemies. But Kit’s life is about to change forever when he encounters a woman who hates Cromwell just as much as he does: Thamsine Granville.Thamsine Granville is all alone in the world - having escaped the cruel clutches of an ambitious and sadistic suitor - and in a moment of rage and anger, she throws a brick at Cromwell’s coach. But, rather than ending up in the gallows, Thamsine finds herself ending up in Kit’s arms!
Plunged into a world of espionage, danger and betrayal, Thamsine and Kit soon find themselves falling for one another. But with evil dogging their every footstep, will Kit and Thamsine’s love - and their lives - have a chance of surviving?
The King’s Man is an absolutely terrific historical I just couldn’t put down! Alison Stuart is a master storyteller who has written a story that’s fast-paced, enthralling, passionate and absolutely impossible to resist!
