Love & Scandal - Carina Press Ad

About Love & Scandal:

Nothing sells like love & scandal...

Collette Jardiniere writes of passion and seduction, but has experienced neither. Her pseudonymous novel, The Last Days of a Rake, has shocked Victorian society and become a runaway bestseller. Infamous roué Charles Jameson is "revealed" as the author, and Collette is outraged when the cad does little to curtail the gossip.

Intrigued by the book the tabloids claim is his thinly veiled autobiography, Jameson tries to find the real author. Returning to London after an unsuccessful hunt, he is pleasantly distracted by a plain country miss reading the wicked book.

Collette is dismayed when she learns the identity of the devastatingly handsome man who kissed her senseless. And Jameson cannot believe that she wrote The Last Days of a Rake. As Collette tries to convince him of the truth, their mutual attraction reaches a fever pitch, and soon they find themselves in a real-life scandal!

Love & Scandal - FIRST REVIEW!
My first review, and it's a good one! Night Owl Reviews made Love & Scandal a Top Pick with 5 out of 5 stars! They wrote: "Excellent story on more than one level. I don't know what else I could want from this well written Victorian romance. Interesting characters, fantastic situations, and a happy ending makes a terrific book. Now, as something really special, Ms. Simpson actually wrote The Last Days of a Rake to go along with this one. I can't wait to read it!"
