Review
Eden Bridgeman
"Sara is now the only hope for a good marriage in a family that has
abused her since childhood. Against her wishes she's sent to London
with a Aunt and since she is so "wicked" looking the plan is to put her
into a compromising situation to force some poor titled gentleman to
marry her. If not for a lifetime of humiliation and her acceptance of
her outward appearance, she would have died of humiliation. But things
aren't always what they seem. Enter in Lord Nicholas, notorious seducer
and rake, who has sworn off women in favor of celebicy and religion.
His dark secrets keep him from opening his heart to anyone, especially a
woman. Sara, his aunts protege` threatens everything he's come to
believe in, especially his believe he's incapable of love. But when he
puts himself in a compromising situation with Sara forcing them to
marry, his secret comes out of hiding, and I promise you, the twists
this book take had me standing up with my hand over my mouth in shock.
Honestly. I read a lot and I didn't see this coming, at all. Not only
is it a great romance, with some great sexual tension, but it has a
thread of redemption and hope that lacks in most historical romances.
This is a book you don't want to miss. But a warning, don't start it
till you can finish, it's addictive"
Since childhood Sara has lived with the reality of being ugly. Something her awful family never ceased to remind her. After
her sisters run off to Gretna Green, she's left with one choice—go to
London and take their place for a Season. It's up to her to marry well
and save her family from financial ruin.
A
distant aunt decides it’s in her best interest to sponsor Sara for the
season and help her snag a husband by any means possible.
Nicholas
Devons, Earl of Renwick, is a retired rake and consequently bored with
life. He’s given up beautiful women and carnal pleasures. Desperation
makes him decide to give his massive fortune away and marry the first
country girl he sees.
Lucky for Sara she's that girl. Unlucky for Nicholas, he's to be her new tutor in the ways of the ton. Two
waltzes, one masquerade, a violent carriage ride, and two duckless
ponds later.... and all that's left is a fun twist on one of the oldest
stories ever told.
