A World-Weary Rake
After years of unbridled debauchery, Tristan Sinclair, Viscount St. Ashton has hit proverbial rock bottom. Seeking to escape his melancholy, he takes refuge at one of Victorian society's most notorious house parties. As the Christmas season approaches, he prepares to settle in for a month of heavy drinking…until an unexpected encounter changes his plans—and threatens his heart.
A Prim Vicar's Daughter
Valentine March is not the drab little spinster she appears to be. When her new job as a lady's companion lands her smack in the middle of Yorkshire with England's most infamous rake, she resolves to keep her head down and her eyes fixed firmly on her future—a future which most definitely does not include a sinfully handsome viscount.
A Match Made in Scandal
A friendship is impossible. An affair out of the question. But when one reckless act binds them together, will two star-crossed souls discover there's more to each other than meets the eye? Or will revelations from the past end their fragile romance before it begins?
Customer Reviews
A quick romantic read.
A short romantic Regency read, though I would caution strict clean Regency readers to expect a little bit of allusion to raciness in the the first portion of this story. I am ever praiseworthy of Mimi Matthews and her authentic descriptions of fashion, scenery and historical content, along with her insight into the development of her characters. My only critique on this book comes as an Englishwoman who sees the use of a an American word glaringly and I noticed a few snuck into this book.
