Ross Benson, Viscount Winterton, is
recently returned from Africa. He is a jaded rake of a man,
and the object of many women’s fantasies. He and Timothy
Rollins are arriving back at Ivydale Manor, drunk, when they
wake young Cassandra, Timothy’s sister, who helps both men
to bed. When she ends up in bed with Ross, her lifetime
crush, it will have repercussions none of them counted on.
Ross is handsome, sought after and has
never had an inclination toward innocent young women. For
some unfathomable reason, Cassandra tempts him like no woman
has before. When he seduces her on a night of drunken
stupor, he has no choice but to marry the alluring
Cassandra.
In a Reckless Moment is a charming story of
opposites attracting. Ross and Cassandra burn up the pages
as their explosive chemistry is the foundation for building
a marriage from convenience to a forever love. Cassandra is
a woman many will appreciate for her independence, her
common sense and her genuine love for Ross and her family.
She is warm and witty, charming and beautiful. With not a
vain bone in her body, she endeared herself to me even
further. Ross, on the other hand, is a charming and
handsome rogue; he is jaded and spoiled until Cassandra
brings him down a few pegs. He is clueless about love and
it is with baited breath that this reader watched as he fell
further under Cassandra’s spell each day. With the
underlying mystery of Ross’s past to keep this reader
guessing, I was intrigued by the storyline, both the journey
to falling in love and the mystery of threats to the
couple’s safety. I thoroughly enjoyed Emma Wildes’ In
a Reckless Moment and I intend to purchase all of
the previous titles. |
