In book 2 of the Wedded by Scandal series, we meet another young woman who ends up being forced to marry because of being compromised. And once again, the man in question has no intentions of forming any attachments to his new wife, yet he ends up doing just that. I didn't quite enjoy this book as much as the first. But it was still pretty good. The start was a bit slow and there was a lot of back story being revealed. So we really didn't get to "see" the couple together for awhile. This couple was very ...tempestuous. There was a lot of passion. They couldn't seem to keep their hands off each other. But they also pushed each other away just as fiercely. Overall this was a fun read. The characters in these books are so lively and interesting that you can't help but be entertained by them. This has a similar sort of dynamic as the first book in the series. The leads must mary after being compromised, the hero spends 85% of the book getting in the way of his own happiness, the heroine has kind of a naive outlook on the world. It's just not my favorite setup. As that dynamic goes though, I think this was done pretty well. These are still my least favorite two books of the 7 I've read by this author, (but they're still 3 stars, so that says something). aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Tobias Walcott, the Earl of Blade, has learned it is best to exercise rigid control over his passions and emotions in all that he does. Uncaring that it makes him seem cool and aloof to most in the ton, he is content with his desire to only woo agreeable and demur females. Then, unforeseen circumstances see him trapped in a closet at a house party with the last woman he would ever make his countess. Lady Olivia Sherwood is everything he should not desire in a female-unconventional, too decisive, and utterly without decorum. But passion ignites between them and they are discovered. Honor demands they wed, and while Tobias finds himself unwillingly drawn to the bewitching beauty, he must do everything not to tempt the passion that burns in him for her, lest it leads to disastrous consequences.

There is nothing calm and controlled Tobias Walcott despises more than an audacious and brazen woman. That is until Lady Olivia Sherwood arrives at his country estate for a house party and turns his life upside down.
Reid has written a fantastic love-hate relationship with Tobias and Livvie. Their chemistry is off the charts and their romance is both sensual and intimate. Their bickering is delightful and never deteriorates into nasty barbs or insults.
My only issue with the book is the longish separation while Tobias comes to his senses, but he nevertheless gives good grovel and the ending is very satisfying.
It looks like I have found my next favorite author. ( )
