About this ebook

Notorious rake, Michael Drake, the Viscount Blackthorn accepts a Christmas wager to be the first to seduce the next lady to walk under the mistletoe, but the lady turns out to be none other than Holly Jenkins; a woman from his past, whom he has sworn to protect, but whose bold antics drive him to distraction…and temptation. Can he protect her from himself?


 


Holly is living a lie. Forced to masquerade as a widow to keep herself and her sisters safe, she earns a living helping those being undeservedly blackmailed by using her lock-picking skills to expose the villains behind the schemes. Attending a ball, her clandestine work is interrupted by Lord Blackthorn, a man who is as vexing as he is sinfully handsome. A man who she’s always had feelings for, which she understands are futile. Because everyone knows you can’t give your heart to a rake… Or can you?


 


But Michael has his own secrets, ones serious enough that could threaten any chance they have of a future together. After all, lies and deception. have a dangerous habit of unravelling when one least expects it…

The one word that comes to mind after reading this story is....DELICIOUS! Oh my, absolutely delicious!!! Maddison Michaels has a way of writing that holds you spellbound from the first page to the last. This is the first novella she's written and a darn good job she's done of it:) I adored the hero and heroine, both characters come to life on the pages. Michael is a rake but one with a soft spot for Holly. His deceased best friend was her brother and he had vowed to always watch over Holly and her sisters. When a "Mistletoe Mistress" bet is made between him and two of his friends, he's horrified to find out Holly is the target! Holly has a mind of her own and is not afraid to say what she thinks which leads her to many volatile conversations with Michael! She's also good at picking locks and getting herself into trouble!! She really is a true delight and you can't help but grin at her daring:) Both Holly and Michael have secrets and when they start to unravel, well....it gets very interesting! Well written, never a dull moment and a love that will make you tingle from head to toe. I really do love this author and look forward to all her future works. I received an ARC of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

A major secret or two. I love tale about rakes that are really not rakes and then add in a lady with a major secret or two and you have the makings of an engaging piece. Holly is living a lie and Michael has made a bet and lets us just say this is going to bring a problem or two to the main characters. What I like about the tale was its humor and the interaction between characters. There is a bit of steam but this work was splendid piece writing. This book is one I am glad to recommend the author did a fine job in this story. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

Loved the book, the story was well written and the characters were intriguing. Once I started I could not get enough, from the start till the end I was engrossed I was even on the edge of my seat with twists and turns, lust and passion, strength, happiness with a happily ever after. Do yourself a favor and buy the book you want be disappointed. Thank you for allowing me to review your book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
