Matthew feels duty bound to question esteemed scientist Lord Talbot when things in his latest article just don't add up. But when he arrives, Talbot's granddaughter seems to be doing everything in her power to not allow them time to talk. He senses that she is not telling him something, but doesn't know what it is.
Theodosia can't believe that Matthew has come about the article. She is the person that wrote it and NOT her grandfather. They wouldn't have published something written by a female. Her grandfather's mind is also not well and she doesn't want anyone but those in her household to know about it, fearing that the work he had done will be questioned.
The two are soon falling for one another, but Theodosia knows that Matthew will soon be leaving for London and she wants to part of it. They go their separate ways. But Lord Talbot's medical issues bring Theodosia to London where she mets up with Matthew once again. The passion is still there, but can the two make it work?
I really enjoyed Matthew and Theodosia's story! I loved that they both had a scientific background and were able to use that as a base for their relationship. Too many couples in historical romances don't have anything in common and it's purely based on physical attraction, so this was a nice change of pace. This was a great addition to the Midnight Secrets series!
