ALL HE WANTS IS TO WIN THE BET....
BUT WHAT IF THE PRIZE IS MORE THAN HE BARGAINED FOR?

There's nothing Nicholas Pryce, Viscount Somerton, and his friends like more than an outrageous wager. And there's nothing Wilhelmina Culpepper, daughter of an overbearing evangelist preacher, wants more than to get away from her father. When Wilhelmina becomes the unwitting victim of a jovial kidnapping caper by Nick & company, she decides to hatch a plan of her own -- one that causes her disgraced father to promptly disown her.

Nick soon realizes the trouble he's caused, and he offers to take Willie in, even make her his wife. But Willie, a true romantic, laughs off his proposal: after all, how could two people thrown together because of a prank ever really fall in love? But with nowhere else to turn, Willie volunteers to stay on as Nick's housekeeper...and soon their affection for each other becomes more than just a lark. Could it be that a little tomfoolery is just what it takes to make the perfect match?

Connie Lane's Regency-era romance is a sparkling adventure in the wise and witty ways of true love!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not my cup of tea, or hero. 18 July 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Maybe I am just a sucker for the strong, alpha male types, but I had a hard time liking Nick Pryce, Viscount Somerton. He begins the book as a serious wastrel and ends the book still not up to my standards of hero. I just never bought that Willie would be drawn to a man who kidnapped her, humiliated her in front of a bunch of strangers, and then allows her to become a servant in his home. I'm sorry, but I just did not get the attraction. Sure, he was cute, but there have to be better men out there.

Despite my problems with the "hero" of "The Viscount's Bawdy Bargain," it did have some nice moments and some fun characters, especially the Cyprians turned chambermaids, the alleged poisoner turned chef, and the pugilist turned valet. These saved the book from the donation bin before I had finished it.

Overall, not my favorite hero or book. I'm willing to give Connie Lane another shot, but this book is definitely not a keeper.

4.0 out of 5 stars I would give this a solid 3 1/2 stars on the verge of 4 8 Jun 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Although a lot of times I do not agree with Romantic Times - I do this time. It was an enjoyable read. I have read one of her other books Romancing Riley and that was good also. This book however just felt like it lacked a certain something to make it a 4 star book. Sometimes I found some of the writing confusing - who was thinking what etc. but she did a great job of building interest in characters that I am sure will be in the next book from her, namely the Duke of Ravensfield and the american heiress. So I am sure I will read the book if that is the case.
3.0 out of 5 stars Average 8 Aug 2005
By S. Reader - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I loved The Duke's Scandalous Secret, which I read first, but the first in the series lacks a good deal. It has some extremely nice moments and contains a number of "life truths." It was mostly the ending that failed to live up to standards; the reader is not quite convinced of the depth of Nick's feelings for Willie. The unusual secondary characters do make for some interesting moments, but the Duke of Ravensfield (book 2) is often more interesting than this book's hero. It's lighthearted and sometimes amusing, but doesn't fully mesh as a whole and lacks the depth of honest emotion that the best books contain.
