Courting scandal since girlhood, free-spirited Lady Elizabeth Scarlet vows there is just one way to save her childhood friend from a loveless marriage: to kidnap him! But Nathaniel is furious. So angry that he challenges her to take their assignation to its natural conclusion and seduce him.
When her inexperienced attempt flares into intense passion, Lizzie is ruined…and hopelessly, unexpectedly, in love with Nathaniel, the Earl of Waterhouse. Now the wild and willful Lizzie must convince Nat that they are a perfect match—in every way.
I really really wanted to like this one. I thought we would get another fun couple, but instead we get an entirely too obtuse hero and an annoying heroine. I did not like Lizzie and Nat at all. They were a terrible couple. The steamy scenes were kind of awkward and felt voyeuristic in a bad way. I wasn’t excited about how the overall mystery played out. And don’t get me started on Flora and Lowell. Not a great ending to a sometimes enjoyable romance series.
