What would you do if you got a letter stating your father had lost your home in a game of cards and instead of taking the property out from under you, the victor demands you wed his cousin instead? That is the predicament The Marquess of Wesley finds himself in at the beginning of this enchanting novel.
Wesley soon decides he won’t let anyone dictate whom he shall marry and sets out to ruin a young women he’s never set eyes on. Once he and the lady in question are formally introduced, he finds he’s sinfully attracted to Miss Kate Holden.
Kate received a letter from her cousin as well, but it contained a very different message. One that stated to stay far away from The Marquess of Wesley. She finds her own feelings confused when she’s insanely attracted to the man she’s supposed to have nothing to do with.
Bailey put the couple in several compromising positions that could ruin Kate at any second. The push and pull of both Kate and Wesley’s actions can be nerve wracking at times. I remember several times wanting to tell them to hurry up and get themselves together already, but Bailey knew how to get us to the happily ever after we all crave.
A Mistress for Penndrake is a sexy, thrilling, edge of your seat read that you’ll want to savor over and over again. I can see a fantastic future for Bailey and the world she’s created in this novel. Hopefully, we will hear more about Wesley and Kate if Bailey decides to make a series from of this novel. *Fingers Crossed*
