My review of A Dance With Seduction by Alyssa Alexander

Maximillan Westwood is a former code breaker who now works with translations. He is loyal to the English government and when he is surprised by a request by Vivienne La Fleur he is hesitant until she agrees to pay his price.

Vivienne La Fleur is a dancer for the opera but also a spy known as The Flower. When she is asked by the spy, the Vulture, to double cross the English government she doesn't want to but when her sister, Anne, is kidnapped she knows she is in trouble.

Seeking help from Maximillan, Vivienne does her best to stay one step ahead of The Vulture and figure out where he is hiding Anne. Will Vivienne be able to rescue Anne before she is accused of treason?

This was an interesting book that kept you involved from the beginning until the end.

The more I learned about Vivienne the more intrigued I was about her. There are certain things that are not revealed until towards the end of the book that blew my mind and I was so impressed at what she was able to accomplish up until that point. Her sister was so important to her yet no one really knew that she was her sister but that link was still taken advantage of by The Vulture. Vivienne is definitely tough and I loved that she kept so many knives on her body.

Maximillian was loyal to the crown but something drew him to Vivienne and he felt a need to protect her. I loved how he got involved to a certain degree but knew he was in over his head with her. He knew that Vivienne was being set up and to a certain degree innocent of what she was being accused of.

The two worked so well together and I am definitely glad that they got together as they were definitely hot together!!

I was definitely surprised at the reveal of The Vulture! Never saw that coming!!
