#139 ~ Scandal in Spring

Scandal in Spring by Lisa Kleypas

My rating: 4 of 5 stars














Reading this book, made me want to go back and re-read the other 3 .... a thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying read - 4.5 Star.

The last of the Wallflowers, Daisy Bowman, has been unable to garner a marriage proposal, and is told in no uncertain terms by her Father Thomas that is she can't snare one in short order, she will have to marry his choice - his apprentice, Matthew Swift.

Daisy is horrified ...... Matthew Swift is a cold, ruthless and aloof man whom she heartily dislikes.

On a visit to her Sister's country estate she re-meets Matthew and finds that he has an unexpected charm, and finds here self falling for him .... which turns into a blazing inferno of sensuality. Just when it seems that she will have a happy future after all a scandalous secret is uncovered that threatens the future that promises.

#89 (#25) - The Devil In Winter - Lisa Kleypas

ISBN: 978-0-7499-4290-8

Book 3 in the Wallflower series

I have eagerly anticipated the arrival of this book, and it definitely did not leave me wanting ... well, except perhaps for the final story in the series about Daisy.

Sebastian Lord St Vincent is the most gloriously dangerous and depraved hero I've met thus far ..... and it is unbelievable (but heartwarming) to learn that the lovely Evangeline Jenner with all her innocence and tangled tongue could bring him to heel.

A 5 ***** Star read.

Kindle have 'The Devil in Winter' on pre-order now

I've just spotted the trailer for it ..... personally, I can't wait to read another of the Wallflower series, about Evie and the notorious Rake, Sebastian St Vincent ..... so will be logging on to Amazon later to put my pre-order in.

#56 - A Wallflower Christmas ~ Lisa Kleypas

ISBN: 978-0-312-36073-3

Actually I think this would be described as a Novella rather than an actual Novel, but I am willing to stand corrected if anyone has different ideas.

A short'ish tale of Rafe Bowman (Brother of Lillian and Daisy two of the Wallflowers) and Hannah Appleton.

Rafe arrives from the States to do the thing his Father has been demanding .... that he asks Lady Natalie Blandford to marry him  .... so that he can become involved in the European side of the Family Soap manufacturing business.

Unfortunately, his heart and soul have other ideas and he falls hook, line and sinker for Lady Natalie's cousin .... a poor relation who acts as her companion.

A delightful and easy to read story, which featured lots of little vignettes of the Wallflowers along the way.

A 5 ***** Star read.

Happy reading.

#39 - Secrets of a Summer Night ~ Lisa Kleypas

ISBN:  978-0-7499-4280-9

Very lovely cover, for a very lovely book.  I can certainly see why it made the New York Times bestseller list.

The first in the Wallflower series, this is the story of Annabelle Payton and Simon Hunt.

She's an impoverished aristocrat who is desperate in the last season she can afford to marry a peer, and he is the self-made son of a butcher, and everything that Annabelle finds distasteful.

Lovely and indecorous scene with the Wallflowers playing Rounders in their underthings, and getting caught out.

I cant' wait to find out what happens to the other Wallflowers in the following books.

A 5 star ***** read.

Happy reading.

Hugs
