A Scandalous Affair is a great, quick read. The plot suits the length of the book. While I was left wanting more of Daphne and Hartwell, their relationship and development of their feelings is believable for the short length.The love of a good woman is exactly what Hartwell needs to overcome stuttering and step out into the ton. Daphne is the perfect match for him. Her personality is just right to draw out the side of Hartwell he didn't even know existed.Hartwell isn't an alpha male. However, his weaknesses and lack of socializing added to his character. An alpha male wouldn't have worked as Daphne's hero. Since she is a widow, she more daring and outspoken for this era.I recommend this book to any reader looking for a quick historical romance that sizzles.4 Stars - A Great ReadNote: I requested this book from Net Galley.
