Rent A Passion for Him

This follows the book, Passion for the Game. In Passion for the Game, Maria is in search of her half-sister, Amelia who is kept hidden in secret to be used as pawn by her father, stepfather to Maria. Amelia falls in love with a servant, but the servant, Colin realizes he's not good enough for her but can't stop wanting to see her. He takes Amelia somewhere when he sees a group of men trying to get her, but in the process he gets hurt,and everyone presumes him dead. In the end of Passion for the Game, he goes to Simon, Maria's former paramour and friend, and Simon puts him to work to make him feel worthy of Amelia. A passion for Him tends to go over the past history, the characters Amelia and Colin are bland, even in Passion for the Game, I didn't feel them appealing. The first half of the book, Colin pretends to be someone else and in a mask in which Amelia is intrigued and is attracted to him. However, she has a fiance whom she has known since she was a teen. While she makes him wait, in passion for the Game, she's in love with Colin so uses her fiance to try to ignore her attraction and love and move on. In this book, her fiance wants to further the relationship but Amelia can't let go of the past and now this attraction for the mystery guy. The book also gave some insight with Simon and Maria. That's the only good part is seeing the marriage further with Maria and her husband, the pirate. I am hoping Simon's story will be better.
