What a Lady Needs by Kasey Michaels

What a Lady Needs (The Redgraves, #2) (Mira Tradesize B Format)

by Kasey Michaels

From USA TODAY bestselling author Kasey Michaels comes the second book in her captivating series about the Redgraves—four siblings celebrated for their legacy of scandal and seduction…

Lady Katherine Redgrave has one mission—to find her deceased father’s journals, which may hold the key to a traitorous conspiracy that puts Kate’s family in danger. Kate vows to let no obstacle stand in her way…but when she meets Simon Ravenbill, Marquis of Singleton, her attentions are diverted as the sinfully handsome nobleman tempts her beyond reason.

Simon has a mission of his own: to uncover the truth about the secret society he believes murdered his brother. All he needs is to get to the Redgrave journals before Kate does. The solution is simple—he’ll romance the fiery beauty in the hopes of distracting her from her quest, all while covertly searching for the diaries himself.

Yet what begins as a charade soon becomes an all-consuming desire…one that could lead them down the most dangerous path of all.

Quick thoughts: this is a rare case where reading out of order was probably bad -- they discussed so many happenings and plots that had likely been discovered in the first book and although I got the gist, I felt pretty lost for most of it -- and, for being a romance, that part of the book was oddly devoid of tension. They met, they flirted, he decided he needed to marry her, they have sex, she has to think things through, and then they were engaged. Far too neat for a book.
