Publisher’s Description:
Lady Lavinia Gillingham prefers rocks and dirt to marriage. Her passion is science, and she’s determined to marry if—and only if—she finds a man who supports her interests and intellect. So far, she’s managed to avoid attention on the Marriage Mart, but when the Duke of Seduction pens anonymous letters singing her praises, she suddenly become the toast of the ton and matrimony seems imminent.
William Beckett, Marquess of Northam possesses the reputation of a rake, but is secretly a romantic. Spurned at sixteen, he doesn’t expect to feel the sting of Cupid’s bow a second time, and yet he’s able to woo the coldest of hearts with the anonymous words he publishes. As the Duke of Seduction, he uses his skill to help Lavinia, never anticipating she has no desire for assistance. While Lavinia is pursued by several suitors, Beck is the one who is seduced when he learns that love can strike twice…
My Thoughts:
Darcy Burke never fails to engage and amuse this reader. Each one of these books in the Untouchables series are expertly crafted stories that draw the reader in from page one and never let go.
Lavinia much prefers rocks, dirt and scientific pursuits to those considered ladylike. If and when she marries it will be to a man who supports her endeavors and loves her in spite of them.
The teenage spurned Marquess, William Beckett is a secret romantic who writes poetry in an effort to try to help wallflowers find their True Love and Happily Ever After. He never expects one of his endeavors to backfire and catch him in it’s clutches. He is also an accomplished musician. His love of these artistic pursuits is a well kept secret.
Now that he has been caught in his own matrimonial endeavor will he still try to find another man for the woman he wants for himself?
I gave this newest Untouchables book 4.85 of 5.0 stars for storyline and characterization and a sensual rating of 4 of 5 flames. The intimacy between our hero and heroine is an essential part of this well developed plot.
I received a complimentary digital ARC of this title from the author via BookFunnel to read in advance. This in no way affected my opinion of this engaging title which I read and reviewed voluntarily.
