Wicked All Day Mass Market Paperback – 15 Oct. 2009

by Liz Carlyle (Author)
4.4 out of 5 stars 170 ratings
The beautiful Miss Zoë Armstrong is rich, spoiled, impulsive and desperately illegitimate. Though Zoë burns bright as the most vibrant diamonds, all the money in the world won't buy her what she secretly desires, to be loved for who she is.

But when a night of passion leads to Zoë's betrothal to her distant cousin, her perfect world is turned upside down and shattered before her very eyes.

Lord Robert Rowland has been Zoë's partner in crime since childhood. When he sees his cousin in tears at a ball, what else can he do but console her by doing what Robin always does best. But a rogue's chivalry can have unexpected consequences, not the least of which is the loss of his one true love. Suddenly, Zoë finds herself on the verge of marrying a broken man and the only solace she can find is in the arms of Lord Robert's older brother, the stern and powerful Marquess of Mercer.

Product description

Review

"Liz Carlyle weaves passion and intrigue with a master's touch." -- New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards

About the Author

During her frequent travels through England, Liz Carlyle always packs her pearls, her dancing slippers, and her whalebone corset, confident in the belief that eventually she will receive an invitation to a ball or a rout. Alas, none has been forthcoming. While waiting, however, she has managed to learn where all the damp, dark alleys and low public houses can be found. Liz hopes she has brought just a little of the nineteenth century alive for the reader in her popular novels, which include the trilogy of One Little Sin, Two Little Lies, and Three Little Secrets, as well as The Devil You Know, A Deal With the Devil, and The Devil to Pay. Please visit her at LizCarlyle.com, especially if you're giving a ball.

    following on from where we left off at the end of tempted all night Zoe's father has decided enough is enough and she must get married. but Zoe being Zoe she ends up getting herself into a situation that she cant easily get out off. this time to save herself from ruin she must marry her best friend robin. so they must suffer for their silly little moment. the story moves to a family party where both families come together and celebrate the joining of the 2 families who are distant relatives but during this time in the country many secrets and truths are revealed. robin's brother Stuart is also present at this country gathering and he cant keep his off Zoe but he cant seduce his brothers wife to be, can he???? so will they realise what has been in front of them this whole time?? excellent, the story just sucks you in and keeps you turning the pages. great chemistry between stuart and Zoe from the beginning to end

    I rather liked the struggle the protagonists in this novel had to go through to achieve happiness. There was some honest soul searching and a great deal of family support and warmth. A change from lots of bodice-ripping yarns.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 April 2013
    I reviewed on my blog back in May 2011, after borrowing it from the local library (see my Blog Post #123):

    A very quick review on this one ..... as in a rush to get it back to library (overdue bad me!!). A 3 *** Star rating as in my opinion not quite as good as others (no George Kemble or real jeopardy either) and actual content a wee bit thin on the ground. In my humble opinion I think she missed the chance to write a real winner with the jealous mistress causing a lot more harm along the way.

    Zoe Armstrong, bastard daughter of the Earl of Rannouch and friend of Miss Phaedra Northampton (#106 - Tempted All Night) , a complete flirt and up for any old rig is caught in a very compromising situation with her childhood friend, Lord Robin by his older brother, Marquess of Mercer and his spiteful mistress.

    Robin is given no alternative other than to offer for Zoe to save her already tarnished reputation, and they hie off to the home of the Marquess for the summer, and it is intended that they will marry before the new Season.

    Unfortunately, Robin comes to realise that he in actual fact in love with his mistress, and Zoe fights against an ever growing attraction for the Marquess.

    Robin goes off the rails, drinks, makes very merry at the local tavern and has was it very nearly a fatal accident .... so do they go through with the marriage and make the best of a bad lot?

    Ich war von dem Buch sehr positiv überrascht. Ich habe schonmal was von Liz Carlyle gelesen und kann mich an das Buch gar nicht erinnern, bei mir kein gutes Zeichen.
    Aber 'Wicked all day' war wirklich super. Die Geschichte hat starke und authentische Charaktere.
    Was mir besonders gut gefallen hat war dass das Buch sehr viel realistischer ist als die meisten Bücher. Natürlich gibt es ein Happy End, aber der Weg dahin ist nicht mit übertriebenen Steinen gepflastert nur um die Geschichte voran zu treiben, sondern mit echten Problemen, die die Charaktere selbst auch viel authentischer erscheinen lassen.
    Ein super Buch, dass ich nicht weglegen konnte.

    4.0 out of 5 stars a romance for those of us who get it wrong sometimes
    Reviewed in the United States on 22 September 2009

    Zoe Armstrong and her cousin Robin Rowland are good friends--but things get out of hand when they start canoodling in his brother's study during a party and they are seen. Social pressure brought to bear, they become engaged. This makes them dreadfully unhappy because they are really wrong for each other in personality and other ways. Robin loves another, and his brother Stuart is in love with Zoe. Carlyle could have gone for the funny in this mismatch of partners, but instead she brings out the depth in the characters: Robin's immaturity and acting-out, his careless treatment of both his cousin and the woman he loves, and the semi-tragic consequences; Zoe's hard choices and eventual willingness to self-sacrifice; and Stuart himself in his role as protector of both Robin and Zoe, also attempting a redemption of his own past mistakes. No one is heroic in this romance; this is problem-solving done by flawed and very human characters, which I think makes it a more interesting book.
