So it is more than just a romantic novel. This novel has a lot of elements of surprises and unpredictable moments. Kleypas interestingly twists the cliche by portraying Catherine as a different person in MBM and revealing the character's backstory to her readers. They liked to quarrel and argue with each other.
Before MBM, Leo and Catherine were enemies.
I like the way Kleypas twists the ‘enemies-to-lovers cliche in this novel. Overall, I think MBM is a beautiful romance novel. Will Leo be able to protect Catherine? And will she open her heart for him? He teamed up with Harry Rutledge to protect Catherine. She was then sent to Aberdeen where she learned to become a governess.Īfter learning about Catherine's past, Leo swore to protect the love of his life. Thanks to Harry Rutledge, Catherine managed to escape Lord Latimer and her evil aunt. But Catherine doesn't want to become a prostitute. When Catherine was 15 years old, her Aunt forced her to become a prostitute for Lord Latimer. Being mentally abused made Catherine vulnerable but yet tough, and had a hard time trusting people. Leo discovered that Catherine was not a femme fatale like she was in Seduce Me At Sunrise and Tempt Me At Twilight.Ĭatherine was once mentally abused by her evil aunt who owned a brothel business. While they were traveling to London together, Leo learned something about Catherine’s past. Leo went to the train station to look for Catherine. The next day after the ball, Catherine left the Ramsay House. He was the person that Catherine had been hiding from. And at the same time, an unexpected guest appeared at the ball. During the ball, he was introduced to many eligible young women. So Leo’s family organized a ball for him at the Ramsay House. So to save his family's house, Leo must get married and produce an heir within one year. In the fifth chapter, Leo found out that the Ramsay House was not 100% his. In MBM, their quarreling and arguing suddenly spark a mutual attraction. In Seduce Me At Sunrise and Tempt Me At Twilight, Leo and Catherine were like a cat and a dog. Catherine was also Harry Rutledge's (the hero in Tempt Me At Twilight, and Poppy Hathaway's husband) half-sister. Catherine was the governess and companion to the two youngest Hathaway sisters, Poppy and Beatrix. In Tempt Me At Twilight (the third book in the Hathaway series), Kleypas already hint us that something was going on between Leo and Catherine. This historical romance belongs to the eldest Hathaway sibling, Leo, and his love interest, Catherine Marks. Married By Morning (MBM) is the fourth book in Lisa Kleypas’ Hathaway series.
