The Wrong Marquess

The Mating Habits of Scoundrels, Book #3

by Vivienne Lorret

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

At the age of 25, and on the verge of spinsterhood, Elodie is not concerned. She has had an agreement with her neighbour and friend since shared tragedy in their youth formed a bond between the. All she has to do is continue waiting for George to be done sowing his wild oats and be ready to move on into married life.

This wait would be a lot more bearable if the odious and overbearing Marquess of Hullworth would stop crossing her path…. Sure sh’s become good friends with his sister, but the feeling he evokes inside her are too much for her to bare! Strangley enough, Bandon, Lord Hullworth is also the only one who seems to know what to do to remedy these feelings… a few kisses between friends won’t hurt anyone…

That is until Elodie is at a crossroads between the comfort and familiarity she knows with Greoge and the passion and excitement she is now craving with Brandon!

This love triangle was an absolute delight to watch unravel. Sweet innocent Elodie’s experience of passion was a sensual delight shared with the audience. Brandon’s transformation form arrogant bachelor Marquess to love sick pup doing what anything he can to win the girl was spot on. Even George, the self indulgent aristocrat provided some comedic relief and a good contrast to Bandon.

I was hooked on this story form the first few pages, the tension, attraction and passion throughout this book made it hard to put down! I can not recommend this story enough!

Thought this is the third book in a series, it can be read as a standalone. The story does build upon itself from the first book though, so if you have the chance, this whole series is worth the read!

The Wrong Marquess by Vivienne Lorret is scheduled to release June 29th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from HarperCollins Publishers, Avon Books through Edelweiss+. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
