Bad Bride
Until the Masquerade at Blackmore House, voluptuous but innocent nineteen year old Lady Florentia Thorpe thought she might fancy one of her stablehands, a strong, handsome laborer who works on her estate. But, at the Masquerade, a mysterious and devilishly handsome man awakens her to her own dangerous carnality.
Her body suddenly flooding with desire, Lady Florentia is left confused by the encounter. Her entire life, she had been taught to be good, but the Masquerader has taught her something else. Confronting passions she never wished for and cannot properly indulge, she finds herself hating the Masquerader just as much as she finds herself lusting after him.
Returning to her home in the country, Lady Florentia assumes she will never again cross paths with the Masquerader, until her parents receive a letter from him. A letter in which the Masquerader asks her father's permission for marriage.
Faced with an engagement to a man she distrusts as much as she desires, Lady Florentia decides to rob the Masquerader of his victory, intending to bestow her first gifts on her loyal stablehand.
Lady Florentia just never expected to get caught by her new fiancé.
Faced with two strong men, neither happy to discover the existence of a rival, what is this bad bride to do?
Two men. One lady.
And will one afternoon be enough?
Expect heat, discipline and even more heat.
All characters are adults aged 18 and older.

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book. Lady Florentia attends a masquerade and her life changes. She has been taught to be good, but finds that being bad is far more satisfying. Having only kissed one man, a kiss from the Masquerader rocks her world. When the Masquerader, Lord Ryland asks for her hand, she panics. Dallying with the stable hand, she is caught by Lord Ryland. Debauchery ensues.

I liked the beginning of this story. It was intriguing and steamy. I thought the rest of the story was entertaining but the intensity from their first meeting didn't translate for me into the rest of the book. It seemed as if he was written as a very alpha dominant male but then he allowed the rest of the things to happen. It didn't sit true to me. It was entertaining though and I enjoyed reading the story.

If you're looking for a quick and enticing historical feeling erotica. It left nothing to be desired in the department for smut.

A young woman who has no experience with men is unsure of who she wants to marry, the Lord or the stable hand. She has seen the stable hand around more than she has known the Lord and so she goes to who she feels safer with. The Lord catches them after he has asked for her hand in marriage and it goes from there! This is a very short story, so it won’t take you long to read and it is a fun read! My first time reading anything from this author and I enjoyed having the opportunity to read this book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Our heroine goes to a masked ball and attracts the attention of a man who wishes to show her what it means to be a woman.
This is a naughty regency short story involving a naive young woman just learning the ways of men. The story is short and easy to read, but rather full of the dithering of young maidens common in books set in that era. Nevertheless, there are a couple of rather steamy scenes and the story is overall enjoyable.
Recommended for a quick evening read.
