Publisher Description
New York Times bestselling author LISA KLEYPAS delivers the unforgettable tale of a strong-willed beauty who encounters her match in one of London’s most notorious—yet irresistible—rakes . . .
An eccentric wallflower . . .
Most debutantes dream of finding a husband. Lady Pandora Ravenel has different plans. The ambitious young beauty would much rather stay at home and plot out her new board game business than take part in the London Season. But one night at a glittering society ball, she’s ensnared in a scandal with a wickedly handsome stranger.
A cynical rake . . .
After years of evading marital traps with ease, Gabriel, Lord St. Vincent, has finally been caught by a rebellious girl who couldn’t be less suitable. In fact, she wants nothing to do with him. But Gabriel finds the high-spirited Pandora irresistible. He’ll do whatever it takes to possess her, even if their marriage of convenience turns out to be the devil’s own bargain.
A perilous plot . . .
After succumbing to Gabriel’s skilled and sensuous persuasion, Pandora agrees to become his bride. But soon she discovers that her entrepreneurial endeavors have accidentally involved her in a dangerous conspiracy—and only her husband can keep her safe. As Gabriel protects her from their unknown adversaries, they realize their devil’s bargain may just turn out to be a match made in heaven . . .
Customer Reviews
My favourite couple
I loved Gabriel and Pandora. I love that she responded so quickly and that his tastes were refreshing for an historical romance.
Good
Good but a little slow and it had very little action. Pandora was an interesting character. It was fascinating to read about a character in this setting with ADHD.The author did a great job at helping you understand her.
The one thing a felt was poorly explored is Pandoras relationship with her twin. It felt unrealistic for the change in her life (marriage) to not have affected her deeply- especially being away from her twin who was her only real companion growing up in isolation. It felt a little like the author was uninterested in truly filling out this book- almost as it is just a hallway to the next.
Bleh
The first half of the book was great but my interest deflated soon after because the storyline went downhill. You'll see what I mean when you read it.
