Her Wicked Marquess

The Sinful Wallflowers Series, Book 2

by Stacy Reid

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

When bookish Maryann Fitzwilliam finds out her father has promised her to a boorish, womanizer whom is her father’s compatriot, she decides that she would rather be ruined that married and miserable.

Without the means to ruin herself in truth, she plans to place a few well placed hints at her ruination with the notorious rake hell, the Marquess of Rothbury, where the busiest of gossips will find.

Her plan of ruination goes off splendidly… until she comes face to face with the vary rake she accuses of having an illicit tryst with … in her very own bedroom!?!?

Nicolas St. Ives, the Marquess of Rothbury has cultivated his rake persona in order to exact revenge for a wrong he didn’t prevent… now a young wallflower has insinuated that they have had a tryst. He is compelled to meet this woman and soon finds that she is much more than the ton has given her credit for.

Soon Maryann and Rothbury find themselves helping each other in order to for each of them to meet their goal, freedom from society for Maryann and vengeance for Rothbury.

This was another captivating tale from author Stacy Reid. These wallflowers are daring and outgoing… the tom doesn’t know what they are missing! I could not put this down!

The angsty Rothbury is a broken hero after my own heart! Definitely book boyfriend material!

I look forward to the next wallflowers adventure!

While this book is the second in the Sinful Wallflowers series, this holds up strong as a standalone. I have read the previous book, My Darling Duke, and feel that while also an excellent book as well, you don’t have to read it before diving into this book.

Her Wicked Marquess by Stacy Reid is scheduled to release December 29th, 2020.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Entangled Publishing. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
