Wild, Wild Rake

Wild, Wild Rake

The Cavensham Heiresses

by Janna MacGregor

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

This is a wonderful ugly duckling story! Poor Lady Avalon Warwyk is married married to a man who doesn’t even like her for her parents and husbands gain. Thankfully first husbands don’t live for ever! After she was banished to the country estate his her son, Lady Avalon devoted her like to the community and women needing an escape from terrible situations. She finds peace and contentment in her community and good deeds. She barely noticing her quiet and somewhat lonely existence with all of her activity.

Can a vicar be a rake??? Well, the handsome and charming Devan Farris sure has the reputation of a rake… even is its not true. But what harm can come from the reputation of being a ladies man if it keeps all the ladies his brother tries to match him up with at bay? Well, for one, when you finally do find your one and only can she ever trust you after your lies by omission?

Avalon and Devan are a perfect pairing and it was a lot of fun watching them come together (trough some outside influences) and find a way to trust and love each other. I am a big fan of a good second chance romance, and Avalons tale is definitely that! Devan is a Devan as the virgin vicar was  book boyfriend material. This story also had plenty of twists and turns that kept me on my toes, but didn’t leave me over stressed. All in all this was a great read, and I highly recommend it!

Wild, Wild Rake by Janna MacGregor is scheduled to release February 25th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from St. Martin’s Press through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

But there was definitely a murder mystery discovered before the end of the wedding breakfast! This was such a treat! As a series fan I was so happy to see Francis and George finally get married and now as Mr. and Mrs. Hazelton continue their detective work. These two are the ideal Victorian era couple goals. They easily work together on mutual goals and know how to play up each other’s strengths, while compensating for any weaknesses. They are definitely better together!
