A story of a Duke with a family scandal that is about to cause havoc in his life, and his attraction to a woman who seems to be scandal waiting to happen.

Julianna, younger sister to the twin brothers of the first two books, has been attracted to the Duke of Leighton from the first book. But he constantly pushes her away, his own consequence being foremost in his mind. Julianna and Simon, of course, can't stay away from each other and she can't seem to avoid trouble.

It's all kind of cute but also sad and painful to watch Julianna falling in love with someone who considers her so far beneath him. He was sort of likable throughout it all, but everything he said and did seemed hurtful to Julianna. Most of this was eventually resolved but I was disappointed that she kept throwing herself at him despite how terribly he treated her. I thought he should be begging her and it always seemed the other way around.

Overall another charming book from Sarah MacLean, worth reading despite my personal problems with the characters.
