Julianna Hawthorne feels she owes it to her family to
intervene on behalf of her brother, who's managed to
squander away the family fortune with some ill-made
decisions. She approaches Rafe Pendragon, the man who holds
the family debt, and offers items from her deceased
husband's home to clear the obligation. Unwilling to deal
with the woman, Rafe comes up with a counter-offer he's
sure the well-bred young woman will decline. Become his
mistress for six months and he will cancel the debt. No one
is more stunned than Rafe when Julianna accepts his terms,
unless it is Julianna herself!
Julianna's earlier marriage has ill-prepared her for the
passion she finds with Rafe. The man sweeps her off her
feet with his passion, and soon both find that their
arrangement has led to the unexpected consequence of
falling in love. It's that love that makes Rafe break up
with Julianna when a threat from his past becomes a
dangerous reality in the present. When Julianna discovers
she's pregnant, Rafe decides marriage is the best way to
protect his love, but unless he levels with his new wife,
the protection of his name may not be enough to save her
from his past.
Tracy Anne Warren's MY FAIR MISTRESS is a
seductively fun read. Ms. Warren is a wonderful
storyteller, effortlessly transporting her readers to 1812
London. Rafe and Julianna are stubborn, exasperating and
perfect foils for one another. The supporting characters
are entertaining and there are enough twist throughout to
keep the reader engrossed to the final page. Enjoy!
