A Fun Read!

Jacket Blurb: " SCANDAL'S DARLING. Never one to resist an adventure, governess Harriet Cole was only too delighted to help her young charge flee France--and the designs of a despicable suitor. But more trouble soon arrived in the person of Sir Frederick Carrington, London's most notorious rake...a man Harriet remembered none too fondly from her short-lived season just a few years before. And the seductive scoundrel would insist on providing safe escort--all the way back to England! Though she deemed him far more dangerous than any band of brigands, Harriet secretly relished matching wits with the devilishly handsome nobleman. Then Sir Frederick took her in his arms for a tender kiss that revealed his character in a whole new light. Now, as intrique ensnared them in its web, Harriet found herself caught in passion's sensual spell. Could a lady find love with an incorrigible but irresistible rogue?"I enjoyed this fast-paced story. It was adventurous and amusing. The villain was quite evil and the good characters persevered with the help of their friends but not without a little unfriendly interference too! The main characters were likeable and had some depth. We see glimpses of their pasts and better understand their presents. In other words, the characters evolved as the story evolved. This is just a fun, light read to be absorbed as such.
