His wants to ignore his attraction, but can't seem to resist it, and when he finally succumbs the results are combustible. Alicia Alton is in love with her employer. No, she isn't of the same class, it's a hopeless passion if there ever was one, and she's a complete fool. However, she finds desire overcomes her inhibitions and moreover, though scandal lurks on the horizon, she can't deny the man she never dreamed would be less than honourable...

A quick read about a widowed aristocrat and his boobsie nanny. Almost reminds you of Hugh Grant and the nanny. The story was a little too stereotypical for me, almost as if it layered onto hold the sex scenes together.

Delightful

This is a most delightful romance. I fully recommend it. Her thriller books written as Kate Watterson are definitely not to be missed!

A pretty decent and quick romance (which is probably supposed to border on erotica) but still holds plenty of romance. Alicia is a very busty nanny for widowed Jason Culver. He wants her - she wants him. And so they do. Sub-story about Jason's brother Vincent or Victor or something and Jason's cousin-in-law Hannah who is a spinster. They too have sex. As I said, quick, interesting and rather sexy. I was sort of bothered by how easily Jason's brother was willing to suggest that Jason simply abuse his authority and go have a romping good time with his completely innocent nanny. Not to mention how easily Jason took that advice. But the book wouldn't be titled Less Than Honourable if he hadn't.

A fairly standard steamy novella. I enjoyed the secondary characters/romance even more than the main couple.

hot with run of the mill, he-falls-in-love-with-the-nanny trope. enjoyed the secondary romance more.

Meh, just what you would expect with no depth and no real connection.
