This was an excellent book. It kept me turning pages until the end. It was more complicated and more emotional than I expected. Definitely give this one a try if you are looking for your next fantastic read!

I adored this very different tale of a woman, Charlotte, sent to an obscure school for a tiny little scandalous act- that her brother started . Yet her father, The Duke was incensed over. Declan is a man refusing to be dragged into marriage. Period. Their meeting was a definite meet-cute in a scandalous way and it goes down hill from there. I loved Charlotte’s attitude and feistiness. The banter between them was very witty and both of their friends have stories just waiting to be revealed ( I think so anyway!) Although the author seemed to harp on things over and over in the beginning of the story, saying the same thing over and over at times, this is one delicious tale. The 2 twists at the end blew me away and dealing with “dear ol’e Dad” was very eye-opening, especially what he said about her prospective husband. Would have loved to have seen the reaction from Declan’s mom and their friends. A good read!


I received this story for free and these are my own views.

Fate, Desire, Enjoyable Romance:

A brazen feisty independent Charolotte has been banished by her wretched father to the Havenwood Academy finishing school for girls.
A school where parents send girls with scandals go to learn proper educate and redeem themselves for polite society.
This is a charming well written story where a young girl and the known rake, Declan, the Marquess of Easton meet in a most 
daunting and titillating way.
Their attraction to one another is instantaneous and their relationship builds at a fast pace that brings forth an enjoyable passionate romance story of finding love.
My first time reading this author and I was totally captivated by the characters and the story. I will look forward to reading more of this series.
