There had to be something better in life than being forced into marrying another man whom she didn't love. Deborah Percival had done that once already, for the sake of her step-mother and half-sisters. In order to save them all she had been married to a man 37 years her senior and now her life was being planned again to marry her off to Parson Ames and step-mother his six horrendous children. Not again! She would be off to London to help out her other sister.
Along the way, providence stepped in in the form of washed out bridge forcing her to take a room for the night. The other boarder in the house was the newly betrothed, Earl of Burnell, Anthony Aldercy. He was everything she dreamed of and before the night was over the most electrifying attraction between the two of them would result in the most tempting offer Deborah would ever receive. Would she accept...well of course, how else could we have this wonderful regency romance!
One thing, you can always expect from Cathy Maxwell is a deeply satisfying romance and that is exactly what you get from the Lady is Tempted. While I usually expect more humor from Ms. Maxwell - the lack of it was more than made up for in the deeply satisfying love scenes. Great writing one always expects from Ms. Maxwell.
The storyline did keep moving & didn't allow me to grow bored with them "looking into each others eyes & thinking this & that", which I never enjoy. However, I was more than a bit disappointed that while Tony fully expected Deborah to understand that he had to act with honor, he didn't think that she had to. That really bothered me. But, in the end, he did accept her decision gracefully & support her in it. All in all, it was a very enjoyable, satifying love story. CM did an excellent job of making me actually feel the love between the two. I will be trying another CM book.
