Amelia Staunton was only trying to help Prudence find happiness with the man slated to offer for her hand, but instead she and the exasperating Scotsman are discovered in an extremely compromising situation. When will she learn not to meddle? This time it may cost her dearly, not only one of her dearest friends but the loss of what gives her life meaning, her secret career as an author.
Malcolm MacCabe is determined to become a political force in London, set on improving the lot of his fellow Scotsmen. For that he needs the perfect political wife, one far above reproach and able to smooth his way through wilderness of the Ton. Prudence fit the bill nicely but he is having a hard time resigning himself to becoming leg-shackled to the dull and quiet chit, especially when compared to her equally irreproachable friend Amelia Staunton of the golden hair and laughing eyes. When they are discovered in their late night tΓͺte-Γ -tΓͺte , he is well-pleased with the turn of events. Now he need only overcome Amelia's perplexing desire to escape their fate.
In SCOTSMEN PREFER BLONDES Sara Ramsey continues her unusual Muses of Mayfair series with another hero and heroine with much to learn before their romance can flourish. Ramsey excels at creating layered, satisfying plots with plenty of humor and characters who are not the typical historical romance fare. I am eagerly awaiting the third in the series, The Marquess Who Loved Me.
When a friend is forced to
consider a marriage of convenience, Lady Amelia Staunton is
determined to rescue her. But her plans trap her in an
illicit seduction, and Amelia must marry him herself.
Malcolm's all–consuming kisses and devilish humor
might make up for her lost freedom, but she believes he will
force her to abandon the Gothic romances she yearns to
write. Since she can't escape him, she must distract him
from her secret...
He isn't looking for love...
A
powerful autocrat with a well–hidden rebellious
streak, Malcolm MacCabe doesn't need another beautiful
mistress – he needs an obedient wife. Obedience is not one
of Amelia's virtues. But he's too enthralled by her wit and
passion to let her go – even if it means risking the
political reputation he is building to save his
clan.
Their hearts can't survive the
scandal...
Despite
their intentions, every wicked embrace binds them together.
But as their conflicting desires combust into insatiable
hunger and unavoidable ruin, they must decide whether to
pursue their personal destinies alone – or fight for the
love that could destroy them both.
