Lady Amelia Windermere is a very proper, English lady who adamantly adheres to the rules of society. Her siblings, however, do not. Which is why they find themselves hiding in Italy to wait for her sisters latest scandal to subside. Amelia can’t wait to her back to London and rejoin society. But when she wins a raffle prize, things start to change…Triston, the Duke of Ripon is to sculpt a bust of her! Although she finds him arrogant and rude, Amelia admits she is very attracted to him. She makes a scandalous bargain with him; they will each pose nude for the other to scout or paint. From there, Amelia starts to lower her guard and her society rules start to loosen!
The Hero
Triston, Duke of Ripon has been Duke since he was a small boy. He threw himself into being a good son, a good student and a good Duke. But when it came time to marry, he just can’t imagine himself loving a wife so his fiancé jilted him. Scandal ensued and his mother offered to let him escape the Dukedom for 5 years before he must return and take his place again. He has no desire to return to the restrictions of London society, that is until he pictures a life with Amelia by his side and it somehow seems tolerable.
The Plot
Lady Amelia Takes a Lover is a short, sweet love story that takes two unwilling people and throws them together to discover what they never knew they needed! I believed everything about them and their feelings towards each other. I loved the proper Miss being debauched by the reluctant Duke; it was delicious! This is my first book by Ms. Darling and I am eager to see which Windermere gets their story next!
