Lady Rebecca has spent the last two years of her life
pretending to be mad just to avoid having her aunt and uncle
marry her off to an old man for money. Wanting to decide her
own fate, Rebecca sneaks into the Kingsborough Ball in hopes
of finding a suitor who will not only be approved by her
guardians but also be more age appropriate for her. Of all
the eligible men at the ball though, it's the completely
unsuitable and rakish Daniel Neville that holds her interest
the most.
Daniel, heir to the Marquis of Wolvington, has spent a good
portion of his life just having a good time, so when his
uncle delivers an ultimatum, Daniel goes about fulfilling it
the only way he knows how; like a rake. Finding a woman who
will overlook his past and agree to marry him seems like a
tall order, given his reputation, but Daniel is determined.
When he meets Rebecca, he's positive she's exactly what he's
been looking for, but the scandal that erupts around them
may end up costing them everything before their story can
even begin.
After thoroughly enjoying The Trouble With Being A Duke, I
have been very much anticipating Sophie Barnes' second book
in the At the Kingsborough Ball series, THE SCANDAL
IN
KISSING AN HEIR. Now that it's here, I can say I enjoyed it
just as much as I did the first book. One thing I thought
that was great about this series is that we get to return to
the Kingsborough Ball and get to see how things unfold from
different characters perspectives. Daniel and Rebecca are
the kind of characters you find yourself falling in love
with. Daniel's determination to do right by Rebecca and
prove himself capable of taking care of her is one of his
more endearing qualities. Rebecca's aunt and uncle are about
as loathsome as you can imagine, so you'll find yourself
cheering Rebecca on when she decides to defy them. If you're
looking for a sweet romance mixed in with a bit of danger,
you won't go wrong with THE SCANDAL IN KISSING AN HEIR.
She is a lady with nothing but beauty and wits . . .
Together they share a forbidden kiss .
Lady Rebecca is determined to find a husband on her own
terms, rather than marry any of the aging suitors her greedy
aunt and uncle foist upon her. Her chance comes at the
Kingsborough Ball, where she meets several potential grooms
. . . yet no one compares to the dangerously handsome Daniel
Neville.
Notorious rake and heir to the Marquess of Wolvington,
Daniel Neville is in need of a bride, but finding a lady
who's willing to accept his past is an entirely different
matter. When he spies a stunning woman across the ballroom,
Daniel believes he's found her . . . until scandal erupts
around them. How can he convince Rebecca to take a chance on
him . . . and on the love that could be theirs forever
after?
