| In London, England, July 1816 was a good time for Nathaniel St. Clair, the 6th Marquess of Grenville. His father, the Duke of Hardwyck, felt his son was a total failure but he had no choice but to depend upon him to assure the family name would continue. If Nathaniel was not drunk, he was keeping company with ladies of the night at one of the upscale brothels in the area.
The Honorable Miss Eleanor Palmer was not as happy. Her former fiancé, the Earl of Holyfield, had eloped with Lady Louisa Bennett (Nathaniel’s former intended). He even had the nerve to leave a note for Eleanor advising her to marry Nathaniel. That was the last thing she intended to do. Her father, Viscount Palmer, even called Nathaniel the “Marquess of Devil.” When she barged into Nathaniel’s home in a rage, she never expected the outcome. Ms. Jackie Barbosa is a new author to me. I found out after reading this book that it is a sequel to another book of hers. This book is definitely a stand-alone but I do intend to search out her first novel. And I also found out there will be a trilogy to follow. This makes the reading of this book even more compelling. It is a great book and I enjoyed it immensely. Her storyline was well done and the plot was convincing. I loved her writing style and her written sensuality. It’s a great read you’ll be thrilled to read.
