How to Survive a Scandal
Revels with a Cause #1
Samara Parish
Reviewed by Helen
I loved this one from the start, Lady Amelia is an awesome heroine feisty, strong and so very determined, when she is saved by Benedict Asterly from a carriage nearly freezing to death the life she had planned is just not going to happen, come along and see how things turn out.
Lady Amelia had been raised to be a duchess, she can embroider, do flower arrangements play piano, make small talk and knows how to manage a household filled with servants, but when a mistake sees her forced into a convenient marriage to untiled, uncouth Benedict Asterly, Amelia throws herself into organizing his life, his business and household and her heart is opening up to him in so many ways.
His innocent and well-meaning rescue of Amelia has changed his life completely, after all that happened to his mother the aristocracy is something that he steers clear of, he will never confirm to their ways he wants his sister to stay clear as well, but Amelia has other ideas and when she goes all out to help him with a big business deal and Benedict can feel the walls built around his heart crumbling in the most sensual way.
This one is witty and fabulous the banter between Amelia and Benedict had me smiling throughout the story, it also had me cheering them on as they journey through some very tough times and delightful times, there are lots of emotions, and I fell for Benedict hard and Amelia I loved her courage, she never let herself get knocked down. This is one that I would highly recommend I am looking forward to the next two in the series.
