He loves pleasure however there is much more to him than meets the eye. Tristan may have the reputation of a rake, but he is anything but. But one evening, Joan can't resist the temptation, and dances with Tristan, and before she knows it, he is taking her on adventures and sharing sensual embraces with her, and she finds herself falling in love with the man. Now his reputation is well known all over London as a rake and a scoundrel, and Joan's mother has forbidden her to even dance with him. Tristan had to take over his title when his parents are killed when he is young. Years later, they have both matured and grown up. Tristan is Joan's brothers best friend, and she finds him a rascal yet charming.
I found that Love and other Scandals was a stirring romance tale that enraptures the reader.We see a story that begins with seeing when Joan and Tristan first meet when they are children. I could definitely see potential to see more books connected to this one.
As far as I know this one isn't part of a series, but maybe it will be in the future. It doesn't happen too often, where the cover is what the book is described as. One of the small aspects of the book that I enjoyed, was that in the book the heroine really does where a beautiful gold gown, just like on the cover. The cover alone made me dizzy with excitement. I was very excited when I saw that Love and Other Scandals was available for review through Avon and Edelweiss. I have only read one of her books so far, but loved every moment of it. I recently discovers Caroline Linden has a well talented author. But more could lead to a betrothal, which he fears-or does he? Read more even though that just makes him want her more. Or the way he can only win an argument with her by kissing her senseless. Or what she might look like without those horrid clothes. If only he could stop thinking about her mouth. Even more, Joan's the last sort of woman he would ever choose: droll, sharp-witted, and always unfashionably dressed. Tristan Burke doesn't want a wife, and one can't trifle with a friend's sister without risking marriage. When she meets her brother's favorite drinking mate, Viscount Burke, it seems her hopes of adventure might be answered. She's had just about enough of being a respectable wallflower and is giving serious thought to embarking on a life of sin, or at least lascivious adventure like the ones described in a popular scandalous book. Joan Bennet has endured four Seasons without a single suitor or serious flirtation, let alone a marriage proposal.
