From New York Times bestselling author Tracy Anne Warren, the first of a new trilogy about the most dashingly dangerous men in London. Pay a call to the most seductive address in London and meet the Rakes of Cavendish Square....
Lord Leo Byron is bored with the aristocratic company he keeps; he needs a distraction, preferably in the form of a beautiful new female companion. So when he sets eyes on fascinating and scandalous divorcée Lady Thalia Lennox, he’s determined to make her intimate acquaintance. But the spirited woman seems to have no intention of accepting his advances no matter how much he chases—or how hard he falls....
Once a darling of Society, Thalia Lennox now lives on its fringes. The cruel lies that gave her a notoriously wild reputation have also left her with a broken heart and led to a solemn vow to swear off men. Still, Leo Byron’s bold overtures are deliciously tempting, and, for the first time, she finds herself wondering whether it just might be worth the risk to let the attractive rake into her life—and her bed....

To simply wake up every morning a better person than when I went to bed. - Sidney Poitier
From page one, Warren demonstrates she is a master storyteller. She brings together a bored aristocrat with a scandalous divorcee to match wits. The end result is a sexy battle of wills ... and the fated lovers who ultimately make the other a better person. I appreciated the small details - Thalia's visit to an auction to reclaim sentimental trinkets to her seductive consumption of chocolate pudding. THE BEDDING PROPOSAL is an almost perfect Regency Romance to savor over and over.
I received a print ARC from the author for an honest review.

ReplyDeleteRegency romance is my all time favorite. I just love how men romanced their ladies, and rarely took advantage of them. Everything seemed so much more refined back then, from the way they dressed, to the social life they led.
