A Loving Scoundrel - Johanna Lindsey - Audio Book
A Loving Scoundrel - Johanna Lindsey : Enter the privileged world of English aristocrats and experience the passion, intrigue, and romantic pleasures of the incomparable Malorys - a family of dashing rogues, rakehell, adventurers, and spirited ladies. Now Jeremy, the son of gentleman pirate James Malory,falls in love. . . .
When Danny, a young woman who grew up on the streets of London with no memory of her real
family, is banished from her gang because she helped handsome rakehell Jeremy Malory steal back the jewels his friend lost in a card game, Danny demands that Jeremy give her a job. She is determined to become respectable in order to fulfill her dream of marrying and starting a family. Intrigued by her beauty and spunk, Jeremy hires Danny as his upstairs maid, although he wants her as his mistress.
Under the tutelage of Jeremy and his cousin Regina, Danny blossoms into a lady. Although she is drawn to Jeremy by passionate feelings she has never experienced before, she refuses to be anything more than a servant to him because she knows he is not the marrying kind.
When Danny undergoes a Cinderella-like transformation and poses as Jeremy's new love in an attempt to help him avert a scandal, a few highly placed members of the ton remark on how familiar Danny looks. Now tongues are wagging, raising the question of her true identity,which threatens not only Dann.
This book gives us the romance, mystery,intigue and comedy that usually comes with a good Lindsey Romance. OK ! I do agree that too much emphasis was put on the language uses by Danny but its in line wiht the street thief story which comes in the "aristocratic's world". A relaxing reading.
