Romance

Oliver, Earl of Stewkesbury is depending upon Lady Vivian Carlisle to help shepherd his American nieces through the rocky shoals of the Ton in their first season. He has known her since she was an annoying carrot-haired child with a talent for mischief and is determined to stick close and be certain her madcap ideas do not infect his nieces with ideas beyond the pale. Besides, her necklines are far too low. How is a man expected to maintain his sanity? He must convince her to maintain propriety, at least until his nieces are properly launched. Lady Vivian Carlyle has always lived life on her own terms, and although rumors have swept 'round the edges of her life she has never crossed the line into notoriety. As an independent woman with her own means she sees no reason to kowtow to society, but intends to go after what she wants; even if Oliver isn't ready to admit he wants the same thing. She thought her schoolgirl crush was a thing of the past, but despite his disapproving mien (or perhaps because of it) she knows he is the man with whom she wishes to share her bed and body. AFFAIR WITHOUT END lives up to the high standards fans of Candace Camp have come to expect. Her slyly wicked humor weaves its way through book three of the Willowmere series, providing a delicious romp including jewel thieves, trips to the seedier side of London and a secondary love story as poignant as the first. As usual in her wonderful stories, strong ties between family and friends form a sturdy and beautiful framework for the romance and adventure, making for an enthralling and entertaining read.

SUMMARY

If a sophisticated beauty proposes a clandestine affair, could even the most proper gentleman resist? New York Times bestselling author Candace Camp concludes her scintillating Willowmere series with a seductive tale of an alluring lady who dares to break the rules. . . . When Oliver, Earl of Stewkesbury, asks the dashing Lady Vivian Carlyle to ensure that his American cousins meet the cream of London society, he doesn't anticipate the danger she will pose to his own self-control. Thrown into intimate contact with the lovely lady, Oliver finds he cannot stop thinking of Vivian - of her wit, of her smile . . . of her lips. And when Vivian, who has sworn never to subject herself to the bonds of matrimony, boldly suggests that she and Oliver become lovers instead, her scandalous proposal is temptation indeed! But with an alarming series of jewel thefts rocking London, the ever- outrageous Vivian insists on trying to discover the perpetrator despite Oliver's admonitions. And when a bold lady steps into danger, it is a gentleman's duty to protect her at all costs. What neither Oliver nor Vivian can anticipate, however, is that the ultimate cost may be both their hearts.

Re: When a Freespirited Lady Collides With the Most Staid of Earls it Sets the Stage for Passion and Fun

I have to admire a lady that is bold enough to suggest an affair instead of marriage. I bet that knocked the wind out of his sails.......
