THE SCANDAL OF IT ALL. Graciela has always done the right thing and her life has been staid and proper. It was a real delight to see her break free and start to enjoy her life. Strickland might be a few years younger than her, but he is exactly what she needs. He's so protective, so passionate and he has wanted her for much longer than she realises. The book had plenty of steamy scenes, so not for the under 18s, and it was so beautifully written, nothing crude at all. Their relationship was so perfect even if some people were less than pleased about it. I am very much looking forward to the next book in the series, and I recommend this book wholeheartedly.
