Although considered a darling of the ton, Piper Peregrine despairs of ever finding her ideal husband; therefore, she has one goal in mind for this Season and that goal is to organize one of the best literary clubs in London. Never mind that she is a woman and never mind that she must leave behind propriety and skirt possible scandal in order to achieve her objective.

Graydon Morgan, The Earl of Rockwell, is sinfully handsome and he knows it. His goal for this Season is unbridled pleasure and lots of it. Never mind the disastrous scandal he barely evaded the previous Season that made him the talk of London. And never mind the incessant pestering from his mother to wed and produce an heir.

However, best laid plans go awry when their mutual desire simmers from across crowded ballrooms. Their longing for one another becomes more and more difficult to ignore when one fateful night their paths merge during a shocking masquerade fueled by Piper’s ennui.

It is when Piper’s life is threatened by a mysterious villain determined to reveal Graydon’s disgraceful family secrets, everything changes. Graydon recognizes his need to protect her and make her his own far outweighs his deeply-rooted aversion to wed and Piper realizes she may have finally met her match.

The Prodigious Peregrines
Once you meet them you’ll do anything to please them.

The cover of this book does it a great disservice. It would appear to be some dubious sexual romp, but it isn't. I would define it as a period romance novel. The characters are good, the Victorian London setting was a nice touch, and the storyline was enjoyable. I read it straight through. I can see it is a series so will be looking into more.

This was a very good book. I don't think the cover fits the book. For some reason, the cover threw me off of the book for some time. I've had it in my library for a long time and just read it after reading the first book in the series. I'm looking forward to reading the next.
