From the other Bastion Club series, we only come to know him as Dalziel, the enigmatic commander with mysterious background. Mastered By Love tells all there is need to know of Dalziel or Royce Varisey, the 10th Duke of Wolverstone.
I was waiting patiently for this book because I am forever fascinated with Dalziel. Not much is said of Dalziel in other Bastion Club series. Perhaps to maintain the air of mystery that surrounds him.
As for me, the book is quiet good. Not on par as some Bastion Club series but it's good. Perhaps Royce is not up to my expectation. But then again perhaps my expectation is high. Royce, to my opinion, is not as enigmatic as Dalziel.
Minerva, though, is likable. A perfect match for Royce. That's about it, I think.
