The consequences of one night that wasn’t supposed to occur is addressed in the opening of Jackie 
Ashenden‘s exciting new release Stolen for Stolen for My Spanish Scandal.
Jenny is in love with her step brother. Growing close due to their terrible parents, all they had was each other. Refusing to be like her mother who suggests she seduces Con, she loves from afar. When they share a dramatic night together the consequences place them back together on the night Con’s twin brother arises from the dead. Kidnapping Jenny far, far away to the Scottish Highlands Con tries his best to convince Jenny they should marry. It’ll be a loveless marriage but hey, the child will have security so that’s all that mattes right?
Taking us back to the beginning of the chaotic night Con’s twin brother does a big reveal rising from the dead and kidnapping Con’s fiancée, Con’s fate is revealed. Out loud gasps, shocks aplenty, I’m stunned by the opening chapter. I love a solid start to a book, it draws me in and whisks me away from my everyday life. First person narrative is still odd to me for this line but I loved it in Book 1, it really added to the intrigue, dramatics and angst. It suited Con’s personality well and helped explained his harsh exterior.
Very, very exciting and well played out story which I liked alot. Unanswered questions from book 1 are covered and Con’s disappearance is dealt with perfectly. The growth of Con is well done and I enjoyed Jenny’s approach with him. Flashbacks aid the narrative and I was happy to see Con’s twin brother again. Rounded off by a lovely Epilogue, I’m going to miss these sharp and tough as nails twin hero’s.
