Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
 
While Lady Angeline Dudley's pedigree dictates that she must land a titled gentleman, the irrepressible beauty longs for a simple, ordinary suitor. So when Edward Ailsbury, the new Earl of Heyward, defends her honor with unmatched civility, Angeline thinks that she has found true love. Persuading the earl is another matter entirely. From her unconventional fashion sense to her hoydenish antics, Angeline is the last woman on earth for Edward. And yet a stolen kiss awakens something primal within him. Naturally, being a gentleman, he does the right thing after compromising a lady: He offers marriage. The proposal is born of duty, but will Angeline cause Edward to forget about decorum behind closed doors, where sensuality and seduction play wicked games? For a proper wife by day can become a husband's secret mistress by night, when delicious desire rules.

BookLender review by Angelita on 2012-11-20 19:11:00

I was not feeling these characters too much. Angeline and Edward reminded me of other characters she had written in a past book. I had not finished every chapter in this book because it was very slow moving and not any action. Now I know regency romance books usually dont have much happening this one I did not really care for.
