An earl with a terrifying secret …
Alexander Cole was a man ruled by his voracious appetite for carnal pleasures until a golden-haired devil in the guise of a goddess lures him into an encounter that costs him his humanity.

Synopsis:
He’s the most notorious rake in England.
She’s a Perfect Lady.
Neither are what they seem.
Lady Emily can’t afford a scandal. Her sister’s debut is just weeks away and she has her pteridology group to safeguard. It’s bad enough to be stuck in a hole overnight with Lord Markshall, and worse to have kissed him. Marriage is unthinkable. But newspaper hearsay on their “frolics and fernication” after a fern hunting accident puts everything she’s worked for in jeopardy.
Lord Markshall’s whole political career is based on manipulation and disguise. Lady Emily’s polite insults are just the thing to prove to himself, and everyone else, that he’s still an unworthy rake. He wants her desperately, but even a fake engagement is too good for him.
With Emily’s sister’s debut and a major political vote coming up, their reputations–good and bad–have never been more critical. The newspaper gossip is edging toward the truth, threatening to incinerate everything they hold dear. Can they understand, accept, and love each other, before it’s too late?

* Characters: rake hero; perfect socialite heroine

My Thoughts:
Lady Emily can’t afford a scandal.
Lord Markshall’s whole political career is based on manipulation and disguise.
With Emily’s sister’s debut and a major political vote coming up, their reputations–good and bad–have never been more critical.
Out and about fern hunting Emily finds herself down a well with Markshall.It is scandalous to say the least since they end up together without a chaperone over night.
This story with a bit of an odd storyline was good but not one of my favorites. I read this author’s debut’ novel and liked it very much. I can’t say that this one drew me in nearly as much.
I gave this book 3.5 of 5.0 stars for storyline and characterization. It has it’s moments when the story leans toward comical but that is the best part of this otherwise average read.
I received a complimentary ARC of this book to read. This in no way affected my opinion of this book which I read and reviewed voluntarily.
