If you have read the Scandal's Son series this is a continuation but these are the girl's stories. These could definitely be read without having read the guy's stories, however if you are like me I always like to read them in order. Especially if something in the book makes reference to something/connection that happened before. This series is more interlinked since they all have the main plot of a supposed ton lady who has posed nude for a portrait. Each book starts off with same situation just different character's views.

This is Rebecca Leland's story. We were first introduced to Rebecca in Never Dare a Duke and then again in Never Marry a Stranger (that story had involved her brother). We also have some brief introductions of other previous characters such as Leo Wade (brother in Viscount in Her Bedroom) and Peter Darby (Never Marry a Stranger).

The thing I liked about this story was as more & more clues emerged regarding the necklace worn in the portrait, you still are unaware of the motives, etc behind it until the very end. It also leaves you wanting to read the next ladies story right away. Elizabeth Cabot & Peter Darby is next with Susannah Leland and Leo Wade last.
