I really enjoy how Loretta Chase tells a story. In this one, the secret is quite a secret, and kept me curious as to how it could possibly be resolved into a happily ever after ending. She managed, but it was a bit far fetched. But hey, this is fiction - maybe society really would be more accepting than I think.
I highly recommend for a lazy weekend getaway. :-)

Wonderful story by Loretta Chase. Darius Carsington, youngest son of the Earl of Hargate, is a handsome rake who also happens to be a scholar. Lady Charlotte Hayward, a beautiful twenty-seven year-old spinster, has a dark, dark secret in her past and doesn't want to ever get married. But when they first meet each other, there is an attraction that neither can deny.

H/H a little unusual- he's a scholarly rake with no heart, she's a beauty skilled at not getting married. Characters are engaging and have some depth.

I always enjoy Chase's books, but this one was not my favorite. The pacing seemed a little slower, and the hero's transformation was a little pat. This is not a bad book, but it is my least favorite Chase book.
