The second of the Cynster twins to marry. I loved how the hero (Lucien) knows from the start he wishes to marry her, but spins the web to pass time until she realizes it too.
If you love the Cynster Novels, this is another great story!
Great Book - I love the whole Cynster series

I always love a Laurens.
I just love the Cynster series by Laurens...a fun, sexy read.
Amelia Cynster hears these words from the handsome,enigmatic Lucien Ashford and is stunned. It's near dawn and she's risked scandel by lying in wait for him just outside his London house. But he agrees to her outrageouse marriage proposal-- just prior to passing out at her feet. Ameliaa's torn between astonded relief and indigbabt affront, then decides she doesn't care. She has always loved him-- no othere man will do--and, frankly, she's tired of waiting.
Sometimes young lady needs to take matteres into her own hands.
But matters of the heart are never that simple. The first hitch in Amelia's plans comes when Luc refuses to afree to a hasty wedding but insists on properly wooing her..in public and private. Soon, she longs for those moments away from the watchful gaze of the ton, in which she can learn all about the seduction from a master. But unbeknown to Amealia, Luc has a very good reason for wooing her. Every wicked gentleman has his price.
Laurens is a great romantic writer. Good book.
Wonderful book, one of my faves in the Cynster series!

I love every book I've read by Stephanie Laurens. She has a great sense of humor and her series are connected nicely.
