Enjoyable, manages to prolong the suspense though we all know the outcome.

Thoroughly enjoyed the romance and the sizzle between the OTP. Not a big fan of the virginal miss trope, but I do love me a reformed rake. Already started the second book before I reviewed this one. Also, Miss Prim and Proper is my favourite nickname for a character ever. ( )

If I had one word to describe this book it would be adorable. Everything in it was just adorable!

The heroine was, the hero was and their romance was just too damn adorable.

Our heroine, Louisa could be annoying at times, but man I liked her regardless.

But what made this story extremely enjoyable for me was our hero, Bray. I adored the growth his character went through under our very noses.

And although it took a bit longer for the romance to blossom between these two, the road to it was fun and entertaining.

If you’re in a mood for a romance that offers a good plot and a story that tugs at your heartstrings and tickles your funny bone, then this is a romance for you.

Amusing!

The notorious Heir's Club, a byword for those indolent young men cooling their heels in the waiting room of life. Heedless of life and limb, the next wager is the thing. But a wager's gone wrong, a friend is deceased, and a reluctant vow was given. Two years later and Bray Drakestone, Marquis of Lockington is still running from his vow, to marry one of his challenger's five sisters. Throughout the London clubs the bets have been placed. Even the Prince Regent is becoming anxious, urgent in his desire to see the matter brought to a close.
Bray Drakestone carries the pain of his friend's senseless death. That does not mean that he wants to honour his vow! Yet in the face of the eldest Miss Prim's reluctance to even see him he once again recklessly wagers. This time that the non compliant Miss Louisa Prim will not only agree to marry him but will propose to him.
So we have the conundrum of neither wishing to marry the other yet seemingly doing as much as they can to have the other's ambitions foiled.
An amusing tale despite being based on a careless and needless tragedy.

This was a pretty decent book, although there were many editing issues. This was also the first book by this author that I've read and I enjoyed it enough to want to put the next book on my TBR pile. Bray was a total alpha that seemed to melt into a romantic pile of goo throughout the story and I totally liked that about him. Learning to love after growing up in such an emotionally hands-off household took a bit of patience. Louisa, on the other hand was way over dramatic in quite a few instances and that was annoying. I think she was trying to hard to be the parent and control everyone's life. She didn't loosen up until the very end. Like I said above, I enjoyed it enough to want to read the next book in this series.

Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. ( )
