Scandalous: Encounters #1

Encounter With An Adventurer

Rate this book
Miss Lucinda Potts is in desperate need for an escape from her brother's home. When a handsome stranger suggests in passing that she should leave England in search of adventure, she becomes enthralled with the idea.

Andrew Yeats, the prodigal and scandalous Viscount Brookfield, never thought the delightful Miss Potts would take his suggestion about international adventure to heart, but she's done just that. Guilt and concern over her safety plague him, and Drew becomes just as determined to save the lady as she is for her escape.


*Previously published in An Encounter at the Museum*

Seek adventure in books

Ava Stone is a wonderful writer. All of her books are such a quick and easy read. I like to read books in order so I would suggest it, but not necessary. If you do it gives insight into Brookfield character.

Andrew Yeats, has lately become Viscount Brookfield, the previous Viscount having a very unsavoury character. Unfortunately Andrew or Drew has been tarred with the same brush to some extent. Lucinda Potts wants to escape & find adventure, her sister in law is making her life a misery.
Drew & Lucy bump into one another in the British Museum. A short delightful story, easy to read & well written as always.

This book was originally featured in the anthology 'an encounter at the museum'.
It is a fun and sweet quick read, which, though more a novella, still has great character development and is entertaining.

This novella had the potential...

This novella had the potential to be a full-fledged book. I loved the characters and the storyline, but it ended much too soon.

Lovely story

This one is a very good short and very sweet. I love Lucy and poor Drew falls so fast. I had a smile on my face when I read it.
