Book Description:
Young Ladies Just Want To Have Fun . . . Unfortunately Eleanor Griffin has three strapping brothers to frighten away any beau they deem unsuitable. She knows she's expected to marry eventually -- probably to some staid, crusty old lord -- but until that dark day dawns, Nell intends to enjoy herself. However, brother Sebastian, Duke of Melbourne, isn't about to let his sister run completely wild, and asks his best friend, the Marquis of Deverill, to keep a close eye on the spirited lovely. Could any chaperone be less qualified -- yet more appreciated -- than Valentine Corbett? Here is a man as sinful as he is attractive, a notorious rake, gambler,and pursuer of women whom Nell has fancied since girlhood. Alas, the irresistible rogue seems uncharacteristically determined to be honorable, despite the passionate longing in his gaze. And Nell must tread carefully, for she has promised to immediately wed whomever her siblings choose should so much as a hint of scandal arise . . .

Smart heroine struggling for her "freedom" in Regency England coupled with a hardened rake (who might actually have a conscience?) leads to witty dialogue and a swift moving plot. A really fun, smart read!

I really enjoyed this historical romance. A young girl on the edge of adulthood, who's been raised by her 3 older brother decides she needs some rebellion and an adventure before she settles for a spouse. Her oldest brother secretly hires his best friend, who is a known womanizer, to watch over her and ensure she doesn't fall into scandal. ...and you can guess the rest.

I enjoyed this book a great deal, however, not as much as the third book of this series. The tension between Eleanor and Valentine was sometimes a nail-biter, especially on Val's part.

After yet another beau was chased away by her three over-protective brothers, Lady Eleanor Griffin decides she's had enough. If she is to become a boring society wife, then she's going to have some fun first. But when her adventure turns into more than what she bargained for, she is grateful for her knight in shining armour who rescued her from what was sure to become a scandalous situation.
