A MATTER OF SIN is the first book in The Ladies' Book of Pleasures series.  It is the story of Lady Isabel Avenbury who has decided that once her younger sister has married that she will take a lover.  At a house party, Isabel meets Seth Rowland, the Marquis Lyndham.  While the two share a strong attraction, Seth is the last male in his family and must marry and beget an heir.  Isabel sadly knows that she cannot be Seth's bride because she is already failed to produce an heir for her deceased husband.The romance between these two is sweet and easy.  Seth and Isabel are clearly well matched.  There is little drama keeping these two apart.  Most of the book is centered upon their developing relationship.  I found myself anticipating the books to follow because I was very much interested in the story of Isabel's friends.  There is also an intriguing story about the book that plays a pastry in the sexual escapades of the characters.
