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.

Remember Love

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Her beautiful storytelling and detailed descriptions and character building really immersed me into this story and made me root for second chances and love!

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance! Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed. De...

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
