Lady Sophia, infamously known as LADY SCANDAL throughout the
ton, always knew one day she would be forced to leave the
sanctuary of her friends, the Furies, and flee for her safety.
What she did not count on was that she would also be running
away from her newly attained husband, Lord Randolph, as well
as an ancient enemy of her dead father's. Having grown up to
despise her father and his ruthless ways, his past has finally
caught up with Sophia, and Kasai, an enemy to the realm, wants
her. But it is when Sophia discovers that her devilishly
handsome new husband is a spy, who trained at the hands of her
father, that she truly panics.
Lord Randolph will not fail in his mission to uncover an enemy to
the crown, and he will do anything to protect Lady Sophia, even
if it means protecting her from himself. But as his feelings
grow for his troublesome wife, it is not long before danger
catches up to them.
Adept at handling any situation, Sophia makes her escape, and
it is not hard for Lady Scandal to disappear into the night,
but as danger follows close at her heels, will she manage to
stay one step ahead?
LADY SCANDAL by Wendy LaCapra is the second instalment of her
fascinating Furies series. Lady Sophia is an engaging
character who manages to be both strong and fierce, and sweet
and vulnerable. Lord Randolph takes his
career seriously and is determined to solve this mystery, but
he had never guessed that in trying to protect Sophia, he
would find something worth dying for. With political intrigue,
plots, friendship and sizzling sexual chemistry bursting from
the page, LADY SCANDAL is one of Regency
Romances finest. LADY SCANDAL by Wendy LaCapra can easily be
read as a standalone novel but I highly recommend reading the
series to date, and I eagerly anticipate the next Furies
novel.
