Review: Scandal of Love
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 04 19, 2014
A heiress that is compromised by a false gossip, and a Lord that had recently realized he needs a rich bride that saves her from the social ruin..Both characters are quite sensible; even though they both had wished to marry for love, they realized that their circumstances may not allow it and try to get the best of their engagement.This is a sweet read, only some kisses and nothing more, which for me in this type of reading is Ok.Though it starts with an interesting premise, the book has not much drama going on; it bother me that both Sera and Quinton fall too fast for each other, there is not development of their relationship...one scene they met and in the next he suddenly realizes out of nowhere: Oh my god I LOVE her!! ( like that, it came to my mind a cartoon with an "Idea" turning on as a lamp...), same for her...instant realization of love.Also, the ending is quite abrupt; I assume their story will continue in Aubrey's book but I really prefer a book to have a closure even if it is part of a series.This is a sweet read, only some kisses and nothing more, which for me in this type of reading is Ok.Lastly, I don't usually mind about the use of language in the books ( unless it had editing problems that make impossible to read it ); but I do have to agree with the other reviewers that the language used in this novella is odd for the period of time in which it takes place...I think that people that enjoy reading true regency romances or other historical novels would not appreciate it.
