The drama of London’s Little Season continues in this
vibrant new series by USA TODAY bestselling author Kasey
Michaels featuring three courageous war heroes surrendering at last to
love…
Who would have thought a man could tire of being fawned over
and flirted with? Ever since Cooper Townsend returned from France as a hero
with a new title, he has been relentlessly pursued by every marriageable miss
in London. Perhaps that’s why the unconventional Miss Daniella Foster is so
appealing. She doesn’t simper or flatter. She only wants him to help unmask her
sister’s blackmailer, and Coop has never been so intrigued…
Let every other woman in London fight over His Lordship’s
romantic attentions. Marriage is the last thing on Dany’s mind…at least until
she samples his illicit kisses. Now, as a mutual enemy races to ruin Coop’s
reputation and Dany’s family name, an engagement of convenience will spark an
unlikely passion that might save them both.
A Scandalous Proposal is the first book that I have read by this author. I know it won't be my last. I definitely enjoyed reading this historical romance. In it, Cooper and Dany find themselves in the same predicament. Someone is blackmailing them and if they don't find out who it is in time, the scandal would be devastating.
The thing I liked most about this one was the characters. Dany was a breath of fresh air. She is how I would have liked to have been during that time. Not one for social norms, she speaks her mind and isn't afraid to think or "be" outside the box. I thought she was a great match for Cooper. The banter between the two was amusing and fun to watch. The peripheral characters were equally as strong and entertaining. The race to find the blackmailer was really fun to read as well.
I definitely recommend giving this one a try. It is the second in this series, but I thought it held up well as a stand alone.
