Deeply emotional and difficult, I ended up liking it quite a bit, but had to struggle with it a bit.THE STORY: Viscount Locksley intends to save his mad father from a mercenary woman who has shown up to marry him. Instead Locke marries her himself because he knows that while he wants her, she is the type of woman he could never love. Portia Gadstone is desperate for security and is forced to agree to marry Locke in his father's place. Two people who plan never to love find that getting to know one another changes everything -- until secrets from the past threaten everything.OPINION: It's taken me nearly a year to actually read this book because I made a mistake that I've done before and likely will do again -- I read reviews that gave away the big secret in the story and I hated it. And then I couldn't read the book because every word I tried to read was infused with my dislike for the ending.I know better -- especially with Lorraine Heath books. Heath often challenges the assumptions and expected stories. Her characters are imperfect and are put in terrible situations. Yet I love her books for exactly that reason.While this book never fell into the intense love that I have for some of Heath's books, I managed to enjoy this book quite a bit in spite of the revelation I knew was coming.The characters here are complex, especially Portia who is a woman who has been burned by love and has no intention of being vulnerable again. She is different from other heroines and I think that a reader is supposed to learn about her before her secret is revealed.Locke is wonderful. A dear and caring man who has learned the wrong lesson from his father's intense sense of loss of his wife. He is so ready to fall in love despite his protestations that he will not. He is kinder and more forgiving than I expected. His character was what made the book for me because through him I could understand how I should respond to Portia.This is a worthy book to read because of how it challenges the standard historical romance, but I do recommend that a reader approach the story with an open mind, an open heart and without reading spoilers.WORTH MENTIONING: There is a novella about Locke's father which overlaps this book.CONNECTED BOOKS: THE VISCOUNT AND THE VIXEN is the third book in the Hellions of Havisham series. This book can be read as a standalone although there are character crossovers.STAR RATING: I give this book 4 stars. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good story, good characters, good writing *by P***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 7, 2022* I was interested in the story from the first page and thought about it when I wasn't reading it. Portia arrived with lots of mysteries, and as the story developed the elderly marquess and the hero surprised me as well as she did.I enjoyed the gradual revealing of Portia's history and motivation for answering the matrimonial advertisement, and I enjoyed the development of the love between her and Locke.I skimmed over a lot of the sex, and I did not like the way Locke insisted on kissing her even when he said he wouldn't and she didn't want him to. That only knocks the rating down from 5 to 4 1/2 though, so I'm still giving it 5 stars. (It's been a while since I've enjoyed a historical romance!) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A sexy love story with a happy ending, what more could a romance book fan ask for? *by M***M on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 8, 2022* This is a good book to end the series. I liked the characters and appreciated the way that Locke dealt with his father's mental challenges, it was very sensitive and showed how much he his Dad.. I liked the hero and heroine and enjoyed how their relationship developed. It had me staying up late at night to see what happened next so, by my measure, that is how I know I like a book. It has a happy ending as all romance novels should and in these times that is important. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/46510820-the-viscount-and-the-vixen-a-hellions-of-havisham-novel](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/46510820-the-viscount-and-the-vixen-a-hellions-of-havisham-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
