I still am not sure why I picked this up. I almost thought to stop reading. So slow, boring for me. Definitely not for me.

A solid read of the genre. I generally dislike when you can feel the setup for the rest of the series/partnerships in the series in the book I'm currently reading but that's over pretty quickly and I did enjoy the different characters and personalities as they were built up in the story. Some good spice and a good relationship build up and pay off.

Notorious rake Kieran goes too far—contributing to a scandal that could ruin his sister's reputation. His father gives him an ultimatum: marry a respectable lady within a twelvemonth, or lose his allowance. So he asks Celeste, his best friend's sister, to help him rehabilitate his reputation. She agrees, with one stipulation: introduce her to the more risqué side of London society, before she resigns herself to a loveless marriage with the stodgy earl who's courting her. Reluctantly, Kieran agrees, squiring her about disguised as "Salome." But what will they do if her true identity is discovered?

The tension and chemistry between these two is off the charts. If you like stories of reputed good girls letting loose and getting into late-night shenanigans, this book is for you.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
