When Nell Whitby breaks into an earl's house on a midnight quest for revenge, she finds her pistol pointed at the wrong man. Pity the handsome devil is a lunatic. He thinks her a missing heiress, but more to the point, he'll help her escape the slums and save her sister, too. Not a bad bargain. All she has to do is marry him. A rake of the first order, Simon St. Maur spent his restless youth burning every bridge he walked across. When he inherits an earldom without a single penny attached to it, he sees a chance to start over-provided he can find an heiress to fund his efforts. But his wicked reputation means courtship will be difficult-until fate sends him the most notorious missing heiress in history. All he needs now is to make her into a lady and keep him from making the only mistake that could ruin everything: falling in love...

I wasn't sure about buying this book based on the desciption. It's a brilliant and enjoyable book though. I've enjoyed several of this authors books and she seems always able to create a new and fresh story. The h&h both seemed separately very lovable, and the dynamic between them was electric from word go. The heroine particularly was inspired. I think often when authors try and write a strong no nonsense lead female they can appear quite annoying. This heroine was superb though, she was really funny and sharp and very likable. What really made the book for me though, was this authors obvious love of language. Even when the characters (or maybe especially then) were talking dirty, you got the impression the author was having so much fun and bringing you along for the ride. This is the kind of author that shows that romance writers can write! I will definitely continue to read this authors works.

I have to say that I'm hooked on Meredith Duran books. Some of them are better than others. I enjoyed this book but it wasn't my favourite. Nell's character was a little bit irratating at times and the hero lack-lustre. That might be just me, I do like an alfa male! Nevertheless the story is well told, the plot convincing and the characters had depth, the intimate scenes as always great. If you are new to Meredith Duran, read Duke of Shadows first but you'll enjoy all her novels and hopefully she'll keep them coming!

I've been wanting to read a Meredith Duran book for a little while, but was a tad disappointed. It was slower that I thought, some of the background layer didn't quite gel and left me confused about exactly what time frame it took place in (i.e. carriages, electricity, factory girls). Again, with a lot of authors not from UK there was the use of wording that would not apply here - sorry, that is just an irritant to me, not anything against the author. I am also not convinced that the title was a good choice, as there wasn't much scandal contained between the covers of either the book or the sheets!!
I liked the book, I did not love it. A 3 star read, and I will try again with another of her offerings.

Unusual heroine
I'm very rarely disappointed by Meredith Duran and this was no exception. It was an interesting twist to have a heroine brought up in the slums and working for her living. Read more
