Reviewed by Helen
Woohoo what an awesome start to a series, I am sure any historical romance reader will not want to miss this one, there were smiles and sighs aplenty in this sensual and fabulous story of how a debutante with a damaged reputation goes about catching a rakehell, make yourself comfy while you get to know Sophie and Nate.
Miss Sophie Brightwell is a bookish quiet country girl studying at a ladies academy, when she and three of her friends are expelled for unbecoming conduct, shunned by the ton Sophie is given the opportunity to spend the season in London with her best friend Charlotte Hastings, the four girls meet up and come up with a plan to catch a husband and not just any husband they want a wicked rakehell. And Sophie has her sights set on Charlie’s brother Lord Malverne.
Nate Hastings, Viscount Malverne is forever in trouble with his conduct and is forced home for the season by his father, Nate is not interested in marrying and he has his reasons for that and for his behavior with his three best friends they are forever setting the tongues of the ton wagging. But when he gets into a spot of bother in his own home with his sister’s friend Sophie, Nate’s life as he knows it is going to change as he becomes chaperone to Sophie and must help her find a husband, but helping her is setting is heart alight.
This is a fabulously written book, that is sure to have any reader turning the pages, MS Bennett has taken me back to the regency era with balls and ladies who are learning about the real life and seducing rakes, and Nate and Sophie have a journey to a HEA that is steamy and moving and touching, I loved this one and do highly recommend it, and I am very much looking forward to more in this series.
