The Countess Conspiracy by Courtney Milan

The Countess Conspiracy (Brothers Sinister, #3)

by Courtney Milan

Sebastian Malheur is the most dangerous sort of rake: an educated one. When he's not scandalizing ladies in the bedchamber, he's outraging proper society with his scientific theories. He's desired, reviled, acclaimed, and despised--and he laughs through it all.

Violet Waterfield, the widowed Countess of Cambury, on the other hand, is entirely respectable, and she'd like to stay that way. But Violet has a secret that is beyond ruinous, one that ties her irrevocably to England's most infamous scoundrel: Sebastian's theories aren't his. They're hers.

So when Sebastian threatens to dissolve their years-long conspiracy, she'll do anything to save their partnership...even if it means opening her vulnerable heart to the rake who could destroy it for good.

The Countess Conspiracy showed us how difficult it must have been to be a smart, outspoken women in those times! Violet was a great heroine, even with her dark thoughts, and feelings of never being enough. The way she had been discarded in the past made it easy to understand why.
Sebastian was so much more than a funny rake, and as he slowly showed more of himself, I understood why he had been hiding before.
