The Rebel
アイルランドの母の領地を訪れたレイヴンスフォード伯爵は、屋敷の誰かが盗みを企てているのを図書室で偶然耳にした。聞き覚えはないが、女のほうのかすれ声はひどく興味をそそる。猫が喉を鳴らすようなあの声音で誘惑されてみたいものだ……。一瞬あらぬ想像をした自分を戒め、声を頼りに女の正体を探ると、母の新しい話し相手、メアリー・マーガレットだとわかった。いっぱしのマナーを身につけているが、しょせんは身分の低い者。ふしだらに違いないあの女を、しっかり見張るべきではないか？使いでロンドンへ行くという彼女に、伯爵は同行することにした。

About the author

54 books9 followersI have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Science with a concentration in history. My interest in England began when the United States Air Force stationed me at RAF Woodbridge, near Ipswich in East Anglia. This is also where I met my husband, who flew fighter aircraft for the United States.
My husband's military career moved the family every two to three years and I wanted a career I enjoyed and could take with me anywhere in the world. We meet while in the military. We dated for about a year before I finally said "hey, so when are you going to marry me." The rest is history for us. Our daughter was born about a year and a half after our wedding and she's been our little terror ever since (granted she is all grown up now).
Today, my husband and I live in Tucson, Arizona. We had two dogs, a cat and a cockatiel. Unfortunatly, our dog Wizard just passed away on 5th of September this year. He had cancer and when they went to operate on him they found that the cancer was enormous and had spread everywhere. We lost him on the operating table. We still have our minature pincher Rosebud, our cat Kid and our cockatiel Bubbie.

Foi um bom livro, apesar de, na minha opinião, ter sido demasiado clichê e com pouco de novo.

Mary Margaret O'Brien is under the thumb of her abusive brother-in law and is ordered to steal from her elderly rich employer to save her sister from further abuse. Her employer happens to be the mother of the Earl of Ravensford. He has caught wind of the plot but also finds himself increasingly attracted to his mother's young companion. The scene is set for a good romance to develop and it does - kind of. I couldn't make Mary-Margaret out- her character was a little wishy washy and she started to just get annoying. I felt Ravensford deserved better.

An enjoyable story with a fiesty headstrong h and a handsome rake of a H.
Well paced.
Oh his mother countess sure did need a slap!
