Her Rake by Charlotte Russell ★★★★☆
When she challenges Lytham to set a wedding date, she could not have foreseen the tumultuous outcome.
Tessa is kidnapped at midnight from her family estate and taken to a very grim area. Fortunately, she is rescued by Lord Peyton Danforth and returned home. There she faces further threats to her family and herself.
When they next meet, both are embroiled in separate scandals. Suddenly, Society is very judgemental indeed.
Peyton is a second son and resents it. He loves his elder brother, the Duke but can’t bear his disapproving attitude. Peyton likes to provoke the Duke by developing an (unfounded) reputation as a rake and a scoundrel.
By marrying Tessa, he will save her from scandal while aggravating his big brother.
Unfortunately, the Earl of Lytham won’t leave them alone and is becoming increasingly unhinged.
So follows a tale of peril, spying, treachery, lust and eventually, love.
