Lady Bess by Claudy ConnPrint Length: 197 pagesI bought this book on amazon.My Review~This author has a way with writing! I love her writing style! It wasn't as fast paced as I would liked but it was a great book nonetheless. The author's books are amazing. I can't wait to read more of her books. I love the interactions between the characters and who doesn't love a swoon worthy man! I love the banter between the characters and the dialog. Historical books usually don't capture my fancy but this one did.Amazon Book Description~Bess Saunders has fallen in love. He is big, he is charmingly masculine, and his Scottish accent sends her reeling with very unmaiden-like desires.Having inherited his mother's English home and title, Earl of Dunkirk of Scotland is considered a prize catch by the haute ton. He knows one day he will have to marry to carry on his name, but he wants a wife who `understands' they will each go their own way after she gives him an heir--a marriage of convenience.Lady Bess does not fit into those plans. How could she? She is exquisite, yes, but she is also an innocent who expects faithfulness. He won't ruin an innocent, and yet, he can't get her out of his head.All this time, and right in their midst, evil hovers. Although Bess doesn't look for it, she finds it--and Bess is not your average, simpering female. She takes on danger and mayhem like she does everything else: full throttle.Adventure ensues as we travel with Bess through romance and the battle of her life.
