Publisher's summary

After five years of tracking and capturing spies on English soil, Philip Jonquil, Earl of Lampton, is in pursuit of his last quarry. But at a traveler’s inn, he encounters an unexpected and far more maddening foe: Sorrel Kendrick, a young lady who is strikingly pretty, shockingly outspoken, and entirely unimpressed with him.

Indeed, Sorrel cannot believe the nerve of this gentleman, who rudely accuses her of theft and insults her feminine dignity. Doubly annoyed when they both end up at a party hosted by mutual friends, Philip and Sorrel privately declare war on one another. But Philip’s tactics, which range from flirting to indifference, soon backfire as he finds himself reluctantly enjoying Sorrel’s company; and, much to her dismay, Sorrel finds Philip’s odd manner to be increasingly endearing.

In the midst of this waning war and growing attraction, Philip catches wind of the French spy he’s been tracking, and Sorrel inadvertently stumbles upon a crucial piece of the puzzle, making her indispensable to the mission. But can two proud hearts negotiate a ceasefire when cooperation matters most?

Great story

Super funny, witty, and sarcastic… just the way I like it. Another masterpiece by Sarah M Eden

cringeworthy misunderstandings overcome

I did enjoy this story. That being said, there were moments when Philip in his dandy guise was so hurtful and dense I cringed. I have an invisible disability, and I have definitely encountered people who say things that are hurtful that they regretted saying once they knew, and it's a crappy feeling. I wish people would just be less critical in general. I felt like Sorrel was more forgiving than I have been. I don't think I could ever connect romantically to someone who said such hurtful things. Even though Philip did not know he was picking at her disability, he was still picking at her for no reason. Yes, it fit his disguise persona, but it was still more awful than it needed to be. I also worry more about these two than Eden's other couples I have read so far, because they have communication issues that we didn't see resolved.

determination to keep going even when life is unfair

the way she could over look his outward aperince, and her stubbornness to keep going no matter what.

This book was a great read. The characters both learned valuable lessons and the clean romance with heroism was great.

Loved This From Start to Finish!

I absolutely loved this audio book! Having met Philip Jonquil in The Kiss of a Stranger, which is the book that comes as a prequel before Friends and Foes, it was wonderful to see him meet his match. Philip and Sorrel had a rough beginning, starting at odds with each other. Hurtful things were said and they ended up as enemies. Yet, they still maintained a banter back and forth with each other that hinted at the respect and attraction that was growing between the two of them.

I really enjoyed seeing these two actually grow to care for each other and the way that Philip treated Sorrel as a capable and strong woman, which she definitely was. It was also wonderful to catch glimpses behind the mask that Philip wore to aid in his undercover role as a dandy and to see the strong, caring, and capable man he was. I loved this story from start to finish.

Witty and entertaining

Witty and entertaining. Enjoyed the banter. I was glad I knew how it would end, however, because of reading other Jonquill family stories.
