Book Review: In The Lion's Den By Barbara Taylor Bradford

When even the most prestigious and charmed life can be riddled with imperfections and flaws!

James Falconer is probably the envy of most men. He seems to get any women he wants. The women become romantically involved. They assist in raising his kids and create new family dynamics.

However, that balance of work/career and family/relationships is equally addictive and enticing.

With one comes another you shall say but in this case he was never informed of the ramifications of the initial results.

The characters in this were so dynamic, illustrative, and powerful; each in their own rights.

By rights I mean inheritances, career fulfillment, and leadership skills.

Take the bull by the horn is a common phrase I often encountered growing up and James is a Falconer through and through who goes above and beyond to show he's not afraid to be strict and stern in sailing his own ship.

Can James be the master he's always desired to be in directing his own fate?

Will he be happy and content in love and life?

Can he truly have it all as a Falconer?

This is the second in the series of the House of Falconer and it is SUPERB!

I cannot imagine when one enter's the lion's den they must be strong, courageous, and face any obstacle without fear and without limitations.

James has faced many obstacles with the fire at his shop but he's always found success by moving up to become head of the most prestigious shipping company run by the Malvern's in all of London.

The setting brings us to the early to late 1890's with all the craftsmanship and tenacity one could afford to include in this novel.

The ability to transport a reader in losing all track of time is something I admire in writers and BTB has this quality and more.

What a beautiful combo of history, romance, and fiction all tied together in one gorgeous series.

I can't wait for the third in the series to arrive and can only hope I'm able to secure an ARC when it does because it's such an adventure!

Thank you to Barbara, the publisher, and Goodreads for this exclusive giveaway ARC in exchange for this honest review.
