Publisher Description
She was his savior…
Banished from London for her reckless behavior, Lady Miranda Sinclair is robbed by a dashing highwayman en route to the country. By offering him a kiss in lieu of the jewels she had to leave behind, she commits the very type of act that caused her exile. When her dour guardians extend her punishment to performing charitable work at the local orphanage, she’s further tempted by the home’s owner, a provincial gentleman who stirs her passion.
He was her downfall…
Desperate to save his orphanage from financial catastrophe, Montgomery “Fox” Foxcroft leads a double life as a highwayman. The arrival of wealthy, well-connected Miranda, whose kiss he can’t forget, presents a lawful opportunity to increase his coffers. His problems seem solved—until she rejects his suit. Out of options and falling for the heiress, Fox must risk what principles he has left and take advantage of her wicked ways—even if it ruins them both.

Darcy Burke
Y. Her Wicked Ways. 7.5/10
Free ebook. Regency. A good example of Regency romance and redemption. Enjoyable read. Miranda is the daughter of a Duke, whose wild ways get her sent to the country. Kissing a highwayman tightens her punishment and she is not allowed to socialise. She is allowed to go to Church and work at the orphanage, which is owned by Fox, a hard-working young man with two large ancient estates that have been stricken by crop-destroying weather. She gradually changes from her entitled London self and then there is a happy ending.
An enjoyable romance
Quite an enjoyable romance, light entertainment, good holiday reading.
Couldn’t read it
I was barely into the first chapter when I gave up. The main female protagonist was insufferable and I couldn’t bear to read anything more.
She’s a self-centred twit, who only cares about rich people pass times of the time and complained more than was strictly necessary about everything around her even though she had brought the entire situation on herself, or at least that is how it sounds seeing as how I only read half of chapter 1.
