Story4.5 out of 5 stars 115
Orphaned at young ages, Lady Katherine Ashton and her brother have spent most of their lives on the high seas, seeking to restore their family fortune through somewhat dubious means. After that kind of adventure, Kate knows, she won't ever be accepted as a proper society lady. To the annoyingly clever, temptingly handsome, and altogether troublesome Earl of Wynbrook, society ladies are a dead bore. Kate, on the other hand, is scandalous, alluring, and altogether fascinating.

Very entertaining but with a surprisingly religious turn...
Reviewed: 01-08-17
Well, I was very entertained and I must say after reading regency romance novels for years, this is the first book that I recall having multiple religious references and surprisingly quoting scripture. The characters were fun, witty, somewhat passionate and in the end one cannot help falling in love with Kate and John. After a long and drawn out seduction where they almost kissed multiple times, I had to step away because I got so frustrated with her varied protest when it was blatantly obvious he was/is perfect for her. When they finally did get together, it was all very G rated. If the Barbara Carlton*esque intimacy is what you enjoy, this IS the book for you. The narration is what kept me firmly locked in. I think I have found a new favorite narrator!
