To Sin With A Scoundrel Book Review and Giveaway

About the book (from the back cover)

Author Website: CaraElliott.com Follow on Twitter: @CaraElliott_1

A reclusive widow known for her scientific scholarship, Lady Ciara Sheffield is shadowed by rumors that she poisoned her husband . . . A rakehell rogue notorious for his devil-may-care antics, Lucas Bingham–the Earl of Hadley–is not accused of murdering anything–save for the rules of Polite Society. The only thing they have in common is seeing their names featured in the lurid gossip columns of London’s newspapers. Until an ancient manuscript draws them together.

Ciara needs a titled fiancé to quell the slanderous speculations which may send her to the gallows. Lucas needs brilliant scholar to help his elderly uncle decipher the secrets of the mysterious manuscript. So when her friends urge her to accept the earl’s proposal of a temporary alliance, Ciara decides that she has no choice but to make a deal with the Devil. And so begins a seductive dance of sinful pleasures and hidden desires as the two of them waltz through the mansions of Mayfair. Lies, intrigue, treachery, sex. They find themselves facing slanderous whispers, unscrupulous relatives-not to speak of their own simmering passions, which quickly ignite into dangerous flames. It’s a potent mix and the result may be explosive-and perhaps deadly-if they don’t watch their step.

She should never have agreed to this insane bargain. She didn’t belong

Especially in the company of London’s most notorious rogues.


Review:

If you love romance and history you will really love To Sin With A Scoundrel. I enjoyed the setting, the characters and the plot very much. The book finishes in a different way then you would think but at the same time you expect some of it. I personally love it when there are twist at the end of a story that make you think or wonder “where did that come from?”

This book is exactly that, it’s full of intrigue, romance and just is a very fun read. You really spend a lot of time wondering what will happen next. The characters are fun and you really want to learn more about them and you really end up loving their quirks and personalities.  This book is the first book in the circle of sin series and I’m really looking forward to reading the next book “To Surrender To A Rogue” which features two characters from this book: Lord James Jacquehart “Black Jack” Pierson and Marchesa Alessandra della Giamatti. I’m sure it also will be a fun read.
