Tom also does not believe in love, thinking that he’s incapable of feeling it or of receiving it. Both Tom and Harry are obsessed with their heroines right from the get-go, worshipping them and willing to do anything to have them. He’s made a fortune for himself as a railroad mogul – in this case, he reminded me so much of Winterborne with his rags to riches story, and also Harry Rutledge from Tempt Me At Twilight.
Tom Severin has been mentioned in a few previous books as the friend of West and Winterborne. With Chasing Cassandra we get the last and final Ravenel family member getting her HEA with a man who will do anything to have her. I absolutely adore the Ravenels series – not quite as much as the Hathaways when it comes to family sagas from LK, but I love it nonetheless. I made it halfway through before the ARC of Chasing Cassandra landed on my kindle and I had to drop everything to start it. Next I ended up rereading Devil in Winter and then finally read the final Wallflowers book for the first time. Then, of course, after I read that I HAD to read Marcus’ book, It Happened One Autumn.
First, I read Again the Magic and it blew my mind. I’ve been on such a Lisa Kleypas roll lately.
But the chase for her heart has only just begun. The chase for Cassandra’s hand may be over. As always, he gets what he wants-or does he? There’s one lesson Tom Severin has yet to learn from his new bride:
When a newfound enemy nearly destroys Cassandra’s reputation, Severin seizes the opportunity he’s been waiting for. But she has no interest in living in the fast-paced world of a ruthless man who always plays to win. Severin is the most compelling and attractive man Cassandra has ever met, even if his heart is frozen. But the beautiful and quick-witted Cassandra is equally determined to marry for love-the one thing he can’t give. It should be simple to find the perfect wife-and from his first glimpse of Lady Cassandra Ravenel, he’s determined to have her. Anything-or anyone-is his for the asking. Railway magnate Tom Severin is wealthy and powerful enough to satisfy any desire as soon as it arises.
