"A Season for Sin" is the prequel to Vicky Dreiling's brand new series with Forever Romance books. The story reintroduces us to Bell - The Earl of Bellingham and good friend to Will who was the hero in "How to Ravish a Rake".Bell is a solitary man and keeps his emotions in check. After having lost his family he is quite happy to be alone. His fortune will go to the Crown on his death and he is totally fine with that outcome.After learning that another good friend is about to enter into holy matrimony Bell is kind of lost. Enter two fellows who tippled a bit too much and ended up taking a nice swim in the Thames. Bell rescues them and starts a new and unlikely friendship with them.With rumors of a new widow in town and Bell needing to find himself a new mistress he agrees to head to a Ball where this new widow is rumored to be attending.Laura is a lovely widow who is trying her best to bring up her stepson. She misses her husband but is determined that her young charge will become an upstanding gentlemen. Unfortunately he falls prey to some other young youths and is becoming unruly.When Bell and Laura first catch sight of each other at the Ball, you can feel the attraction buzzing between them. Laura is warned that Bell is a notorious Rake and to stay well away from him. Bell doesn't realise Laura is the widow and decides he wants to get to know her.The story is a sweet introduction to these two characters.  I'm looking forward to the full story of Bell and Laura and seeing how they both overcome their desire not to get involved with anyone on a permanent basis.If you're looking for a quick, fun read, then this is the one for you.
