They are England's most eligible bachelors, with the most scandalous reputations. But for the right woman, even an unrepentant rogue may mend his ways ...Lady Grace Mabry's ample inheritance has made it impossible for her to tell whether a suitor is in love with her- or enamored of her riches. Who better to distinguish beau from blackguard than her notorious childhood friend, the Duke of Lovingdon? With no interest in marriage, Lovingdon has long lived only for pleasure. He sees little harm in helping Grace find a proper match. He simply has to teach the lovely innocent all the ploys a scoundrel uses to gain a woman's favor- by demonstrating his wicked ways. But as lessons lead to torrid passion and Grace becomes ensnared in another man's marriage plot, Lovingdon must wage a desperate gamble: Open his heart fully-or risk losing the woman he adores ...
Really enjoyed this one as well, although it was flowery and veeeeeeeery cheesy at the end.
I loved how it dealt a little bit with malignancy which is a subject I've never read before in historical novels. I enjoyed how it dealt with life after loss, even though Lovingdon vexed me with how much he kept repeating how he "could not give her what she wanted, could not love her, had no love to give, he cared for her yes but not that way" blah blah blah. Dude, when you need to remind yourself of these "facts" in your inner monologue every three seconds it means you're lying through your teeth.
That one section out of the antagonists eyes was a bit weird and out of place though.
