I’m shocked we’ve never reviewed this. (I think I’ll rectify that.) This is the end to what is still my favorite series by Sarah MacLean. I found it very satisfying–it takes a story begun in her very early Love by Numbers series and wraps it up wonderfully. Here’s the blurb:
By day, she is Lady Georgiana, sister to a duke, ruined before her first season in the worst kind of scandal. But the truth is far more shocking—in London’s darkest corners, she is Chase, the mysterious, unknown founder of the city’s most legendary gaming hell. For years, her double identity has gone undiscovered . . . until now.
Brilliant, driven, handsome-as-sin Duncan West is intrigued by the beautiful, ruined woman who is somehow connected to a world of darkness and sin. He knows she is more than she seems, and he vows to uncover all of Georgiana’s secrets, laying bare her past, threatening her present, and risking all she holds dear . . . including her heart.

The Carsingtons are just a good time. This one is about Darius and I enjoyed it thoroughly! In our review, we wrote:
I enjoyed watching Darius fall victim to Feelings while not entirely abandoning Logic, and Charlotte learning to trust a man and express her emotions without fear of disappointing. Loretta Chase never disappoints me, and I can easily recommend the fun and sometimes touching Not Quite a Lady.

My feeling about this book is that, at 1.99, why not?

Tarquin (also known as Quin) is happy to let his mother chose his next wife. He chose his first, and that relationship was plagued by multiple problems, including infidelity, and ended in heartbreak. He has come to accept that he has no ability to fathom what people around him are feeling, leading him to surround himself with concrete, logical individuals. Olivia makes a stunning impression on him in their very first meeting. Not only is he instantly aroused by her luminous skin and voluptuous curves but she wears her feelings on her face and he can easily interpret them, leading him succumb to temptation and kiss her. The next morning he has his emotions under control, only needing to think of his past mistake. Georgiana is everything a duchess should be, but Quin feels a vast sense of disappointment upon hearing that Olivia is to be married.
Olivia, as the heroine, is perfect. I love her sense of joie de vivre. While she realizes that her size is not society’s ideal and at times is plagued by self-consciousness, mostly she has the innate ability to become the life of the party and pull people into her orbit of laughter and enjoyment. Quin’s enlightenment about feelings and emotions is very gratifying, as is his willingness to take a chance again, especially after the horrible repercussions of his first marriage.
