Review: The Virgin and the Viscount (Lords of Vice, #4) by Robyn DeHart

Synopsis

As a Lady of Virtue, Matilda Brooks swears to reform the most despicable man of her acquaintance, her brother-in-law, Sullivan Chase, Viscount Glenbrook. Well, he may not be the most despicable, but he is certainly arrogant, flirtatious, and entirely too charming. To make matters worse, he has the irritating tendency to poke fun of her and rile her emotions as no other man does. However, when she confronts him, he laughs off her concern about his slothful ways.

But when a carriage accident forces Sullivan to play knight to Tilly’s damsel, his unexpected act of chivalry ends up costing them both their freedom. Her compromised reputation and his honorable declaration forces them into a marriage neither of them wants. Which is most inconvenient, given that she has sworn to despise him forever.

Review

I loved it! Mostly, I loved the characters. The story flows beautifully, and I think it has enough exciting moments to keep the readers entertained. If you are among the readers who love angst, then this book is definitely for you. Be ready for some embarrassing scenes and some very hot ones.
Matilda has always lived in her sister's shadow. When she liked someone her sister stole him away. There is only one thing she does which is hers. And that's being a Lady of Virtue. She plans to do all she can to make London a safe place for people. Even if it puts her in danger.

Sullivan loves Matilda. He has for a long time but she is still carrying a torch for his brother. When circumstances force them to get married, he decides to never let her go. There is only one thing he can't accept and that's Matilda putting herself in danger. What will he do if she refuses to listen to him?

Overall, it's a great story. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and would recommend to all historical fiction fans.
