Synopsis

Since being named “London’s Lord to Land” by a popular ladies’ magazine, Nicholas St. John has been relentlessly pursued by every matrimony-minded female in the ton. So when an opportunity to escape fashionable society presentsitself, he eagerly jumps—only to land in the path of the most determined, damnably delicious woman he’s ever met!The daughter of a titled wastrel, Lady Isabel Townsend has too many secrets and too little money. Though she is used to taking care of herself quite handily, her father’s recent passing has left Isabel at sea and in need of outside help to protect her young brother’s birthright. The sinfully handsome, eminently eligible Lord Nicholas could be the very salvation she seeks.But the lady must be wary and not do anything reckless and foolish…like falling madly, passionately in love.

I read her other book, Seven Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake, and loved that book. This one was very disappointing. The only reason I finishd it wasbecause I had nothing else to read. It does get better about half thru the book but the 1st part is almost boring. That's why I gave it a 3 Star rate.

4 ½ stars – Historical Romance I'm feeling lazy about writing a full review, so I'll keep this somewhat brief. I absolutely adored Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake, and I've been anxiously awaiting this second book by MacLean. Did it wow me? Yes and no. In all fairness, this had a lot to li......more

3.5 stars I loved book one in this series so much that I immediately jumped into the audiobook of book two! This one is Nicholas's story, who is the twin brother of Gabriel from book one. From the moment we met Isabel, I loved her character and how she was hiding women who needed a safe place in her......more
