This was a fabulous book, well worth reading.,
By "ketera" (Euclid, OH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scandal Bound (Paperback)
Miss Ellen Marling made a most serious mistake when she let her father marry her off to the beastly Baron Basil Brockhaven. Just how immense an error it was became crystal clear to this innocent but independent young lady when she faced the prospect of her wedding night with the loathsome-lord. A leap in the dark from the bedroom window seemed her only sure way of escape. But here again it seemed that she had most grievously erred. Her leap carried her into the hands of the notorious Marquess of Trent, as ravenous in his pursuit of pleasure as he was irresistibly handsome. Ellen had traded a monstrous husband for a masterly rake and knew she could not risk another mistake, the greatest one of all: falling in love... I think it's a wonderful romance

fine, but do read the original!,
By Ellie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Scandal Bound (Paperback)
My mother brought up her 4 daughters on Georgette Heyer's novels in the 1970s, thank God! (such a help with SAT vocab! lol) I later discovered Jane Austen in the library; another lifelong boon.This book is a thinly disguised copy of Mrs. Heyer's "The Corinthian" in terms of plot. A young lady with marital trouble (or pre-marital, in the case of G.H.) sneaks out a window into the arms of the hero, hijinks ensue, happily ever after, voila! Although this book IS good, there are no possible comparisons to "The Corinthian", with the exception of a nearly identical base plot. I was amazed at some of the similarities, and instantly reminded of G.H. If you've read Mrs. Heyer's books, you will still enjoy this one. It certainly doesn't follow a true rendition of the way manners, etc, would have been carried out by this caste in this time period, but it's still a fun read. But do treat yourself to Mrs. Heyer. Her books were out of print for a while, and mercifully are available again. Like this book they're all nice and clean (for those of us who are not fans of Ms. Steele type books), witty, and written for pure escapist pleasure. Real life has enough trouble. I like my reading to be less real, thanks!

My favorite Regency Romance,
By M. Mcilvoy "book lover" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Scandal Bound (Paperback)
I read this book many years ago and actually wore out my first copy as I re-read it every few years. I bought a new copy a few years ago. This is a wonderful Regency Romance that is clean and wholesome. The hero and heroine are completely likable. Not only is this a very cute love story it has some comedy as well; I laughed out loud several times while reading it. If you like Regency Romances, this is one you want to read.
