Product Description

James Cordier is all blue blood and entirely dangerous. He's a master of disguise, a brilliant thief, a first-class lover--all for King and Country--and, by gad, he's "so" weary of it. His last mission is to "acquire" a packet of incriminating letters from one notorious woman. Then he can return to London and meet sweet-natured heiresses--not adventuresses and fallen women. Francesca Bonnard has weathered heartbreak, scorn, and scandal. She's independent, happy, and "definitely" fallen; and she's learned that "gentlemen" are more trouble than they're worth. She can also see that her wildly attractive new neighbor is bad news. But as bad as James is, there are others far worse also searching for Francesca's letters. And suddenly nothing is simple--especially the nearly incendiary chemistry between the two most jaded, sinful souls in Europe. And just as suddenly, risking everything may be worth the prize.

5.0 out of 5 stars Witty and entertaining 8 Jun 2008
By LEP TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Unlike one of the other reviewers, I found this book far from boring. On the contrary it was witty and entertaining in the interaction between the two principal characters, with entertaining secondary characters.

In England, Francesca Bonnard is a notorious, shunned divorcee; someone to be ignored and distanced by polite society and people who had been her friends. However in the more relaxed, less hypocritical atmosphere of Italy, Francesca is a feted top courtesan, able to command a high price for her favours. For the first time in her life she is an independant woman, able to do as she pleases and pick and choose her lovers.

However, Francesca has something both her ex-husband and the British government wants. The government sends the blue-bloodied, master of disguise James Cordier, who is half Italian, to seduce Francesca and find what they want. Her husband sends the somewhat unhinged, knife-wielding Marta Fazi.

James decides that playing hard to get is the best way of attracting and intriging Francesca. Unfortunately he is madly attracted to her and so keeping cool and distanced is difficult, especially when Francesca has a young prince dangling after her and is then attacked several times and her house searched.

A very enjoyable romp.

I love Loretta Chase's novels and waited eagerly for this one to be published, BUT it doesn't have the humour of the her later novels, the plot is great the heroine feisty as expected the hero strong but it just didn't hold my attention like her previous novels.

5.0 out of 5 stars How I love...Your Scandalous Ways 3 Mar 2011
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was really surprised when I came to this book page and saw the low reviews. Aside from Don't Tempt Me this is the best Chase book I've read so far. If I didn't know it was Chase, I'd have guessed it was a different author to that of The Last Hellion, which, though good, didn't enthrall me as much as I'd have liked. It drew me in as a few of her books haven't and made me really involved with the characters instead of the plot. That's a good thing.

Francesca was a likeable character despite her unusual profession and I could understand her motivations although some of her comments are risque even to my standards! (I did enjoy them despite this).

James was a brilliant hero, dashing, daring and a spy/thief. Everything you could want. I found the repartee between them to sparkle and the sex scenes were hot and I didnt feel as though they'd been pushed in where they didn't belong to merely correspond to the publisher's desire for X amount of love scenes.

Unlike many Regency romances, this is set in Venice and the way Chase describes it provides a great backdrop for the romance. I read the book in a day and only that long because I had to stop for tea breaks. I would highly recommend this book and also Don't Tempt Me that has the same witty and involving characters as Your Scandalous Ways.
