출판사 설명
Scandals rarely take place in the center of the ballroom, but on the fringes anything is possible.
From the moment George Sweet stole his intended, Roman Crawford has pursued every possible manner of revenge against the nasty scrub. Though he does have his limits. Debauching Sweet’s sister, a veritable paragon of vestal goodness, is beyond the pale—yet that is exactly what the lady herself requests. Roman isn’t willing or able to refuse when Amity Sweet quite literally begs him to participate in her ruin. But instead of a shy, virtuous flower, Roman finds himself in the arms of a wickedly passionate beauty…who disappears from Town immediately after their tryst.
If public humiliation is the only way Amity can escape an arranged marriage to one of her vicious brother’s cronies, then it will be on her terms. She enlists the aid of George’s greatest enemy, who she’s certain will be happy to see her brother brought low by her corruption. But Amity is no fool. She also chose Roman because of his reputation in the bedroom. She expects to find pleasure in her ruin. She does not, however, expect to find Roman Crawford nigh unforgettable.
When the pair meet again, their wicked attraction is stronger still, but Amity despairs of falling for a man pining for another, while Roman knows any offer for her hand may further alienate Amity from her family. Neither are aware that their worries may be for naught. That their combined fate—and destiny—may already be sealed.

4-4.5 Stars!
4-4.5 Stars! Cute, quick read! I really enjoyed reading this one. This was the first book in the ‘Scandalous Brides’ series and can be read as a standalone. This was my first time reading this author but I’ll definitely be checking out her other works. The beginning is a bit unbelievable but maybe women really did stuff like this way back then, who knows. Desperate times and all that. I loved the main characters, Amity & Roman, they were easily lovable and I was rooting for them to get their HEA ending. The ‘sexy times’ scenes were the perfect amount of heat and details, in my opinion. Truly enjoyed this book and definitely recommend checking it out.

More sex than needed
The second half of the book was predictable. I skipped a lot of sex fill-in stuff. It didn’t advance the story.
Revenge, Ruin, Romance
He wants revenge on her brother. Amity wants out of an unsavory arranged marriage. Ruin is her answer, and Roman is the means. Amity and Roman meant to spend a brief time in a dark closet and accomplish her ruination, then they would go their separate ways. That would work if they could stop thinking about each other. The first book in the Scandalous Brides series is fast paced, steamy, and quite entertaining. There is humor, passion, revenge, a horrible brother (the villain), romance, a wonderful couple, a scheming cousin (in a good way), and a happy ending. An enjoyable story and a great start for the series.
I received an ARC of this book via BookSprout and am voluntarily reviewing it.
