Book one-sixty-seven: To Pleasure a Prince

To Pleasure a Prince (2005)
Sabrina Jeffries


Rating: 2.5/5

It was pretty weird reading this actually, because I’ve already read Only a Duke Will Do which is about the outcome of a lot of the things that go one here. So as usual I was kind of reading a series backward. Even though they aren’t in the same series.

Anyway, that confusion aside it was pretty funny.

Beautiful Lady Regina Tremaine has turned down so many suitors that she's called La Belle Dame Sans Merci. The truth: she won't marry because she carries a dark secret. She sees no good reason, however, why her brother shouldn't court the lovely Louisa North—even if Louisa's half-brother, the notorious "Dragon Viscount," objects.

Marcus North, Viscount Draker—bastard son of the Prince of Wales—is rumored to be a monster who holds women captive and has his way with them. He has been exiled from polite society for years. But when Lady Regina makes a plea on her brother's behalf, Marcus strikes a deal. Her brother can court Louisa so long as Marcus can court Regina. But can the beauty and the beast survive a proper courtship when the chemistry between them threatens to cause the scandal of the century?
