The Earl of Wrexham is a widower and the father of a delightful young boy named Prescott. When the Earl decides to marry for circumstance versus love his young son Prescott steps in. Prescott can't stand the thought of having such an icy step mother come into his life so he puts an ad in the paper, "Desperately Seeking Wife".  A humorous twist lands Ms. Olivia Sloane in the middle of this historical version of "Sleepless in Seattle". Now I doubt the author's intentions were to be a historical version of Sleepless in Seattle but I couldn't stop thinking of how much it reminded me of one of my all-time favorite movies.Olivia Sloane hides in the corner at balls, enjoys politics, and loves chess. She can't control a word that comes out of her mouth and never hides her opinions which makes her a bit of an outcast. Olivia's character was so odd I couldn't help but love her. The interaction between Olivia and the Earl had me laughing out loud and smiling while reading, but the real show stealer in this book is little Prescott. Prescott is positively adorable I couldn't get enough of him.Normally the reason I love historical romances is because of the passion and well...The completely hot sex scenes!! Scandalously Yours didn't have the same passionate sex scenes most historical romances have, but I still enjoyed it. This book did have a few sex scenes, but not the norm for this genre. Scandalously Yours is such a delightfully romantic read I couldn't help but enjoy every minute of it.I recommend Scandalously Yours to mature lovers of historical romances. I will be counting down the days until  Sinfully Yours the next book in The Hellions of High Street series is released.
