Benjamin Wallace, the Earl of Heathton and his clever and
beautiful wife Alicia are embroiled again with the enemy
they met in Ruined by Moonlight, the first in the
Whispers of Scandal series.
Lady Angelina DeBrooke is in love. What to others might be a
joyous circumstance awakes an overwhelming dread. She is
all-but-accused of murdering her first two husbands.
Whomever committed the murders is still unknown, lurking in
the shadows. She will do everything within her power to keep
her beloved Christopher safe, even lay out the indelicate
details of her life to a stranger with the hope he can run
down the evil person who has ruined her life. She must do
anything within her power to clear the mystery that has
overshadowed her past to allow any hope of a bright future.
Christopher Durham, Baron Lowe is becoming impatient with
the secret nature of his relationship with the beautiful
Angelina. He is certain he will be able to keep both of them
safe no matter the source of the danger. He wants only to
marry her and bring him into his life as one of the
preeminent architects of his day. When the Earl of Heathton
brings home the gravity of the danger, not only to him but
to Angelina he is willing to follow his advice for a time,
but aches for confrontation .
A MOST IMPROPER RUMOR is a mystery nested within a mystery,
a romance within a romance.
Each book in Emma Wildes' Whisper of Scandal series
is a bit different than a standard historical romance.
Although the central puzzler and one of the couples is
unique to each book, there is also an over-arching story
line that involves the two main (now married)characters as
well as the greater mystery of who is masterminding the
repeated evil. Wildes provides readers with a clever,
engrossing read
and a happy ending while leaving trails that will make
readers eager
to pick up the next book in the series when it is published.
What is society to do when the diamonds of the first
water are caught in compromising situations, one after the
other? Can the young ladies survive the season with their
reputations intact…or will the scandalous whispers
surrounding them bring about the ultimate ruination?
Once the toast of the ton, Lady Angelina DeBrooke is no
longer known just for her exquisite beauty, but more for
her notorious marriages. Dubbed the Dark Angel, she has
fallen in love for the first time and wishes to marry, but
fears finding herself a widow for the third time. With two
poisoned husbands and a cloud of suspicion hanging over
her head, she turns to the only man in England who might
help her…
Benjamin Wallace, Lord Heathton, isn’t interested in
playing detective again, but when Lady DeBrooke approaches
him in a quest to clear her name, he finds the challenge
irresistible. Her second husband was an old friend, and
when he takes a closer look, he catches the scent of a foe
he has hunted before—and knows this is his chance to
finally trap the elusive prey...
