Eva Leigh

Eva Leigh’s deliciously sexy Wicked Quills of London series continues as a Lady’s secret career writing erotic fiction is jeopardized by real-life romance . . . In society circles she’s known as the Watching Wallflower—shy, quiet, and certainly never scandalous. Yet beneath Lady Sarah Frampton’s demure façade hides the mind of The Lady of Dubious Quality, author of the most titillating erotic fiction the ton has ever seen. Sarah knows discovery would lead to her ruin, but marriage—to a vicar, no less—could help protect her from slander. An especially tempting option when the clergyman in question is the handsome, intriguing Jeremy Cleland. Tasked with unmasking London’s most scandalous author by his powerful family, Jeremy has no idea that his beautiful, innocent bride is the very woman he seeks to destroy. His mission must remain a secret, even from the new wife who stirs his deepest longings. Yet when the truth comes to light, Sarah and Jeremy’s newfound love will be tested. Will Sarah’s secret identity tear them apart or will the temptations of his wallflower wife prove too wicked to resist?

I thought their relationship was a little forced at times. My least favorite of the series but still a good one.

I’m rating up with this one. I’d say a solid 3.5 stars. Jeremy was nice breath of fresh air probably because he was a Vicar.

The last love scene after their reconciliation made me feel the love between the two characters so intently and I was actively rooting for them.

Wallflower and virgin Lady Sarah is secretly an erotic romance novelist. If exposed, she risks being banished from society and her family, but she cannot stop the flow of her quill. Thinking she'll never meet a man who will thrill her quite like the heroes in her tales, she is stunned by her immediate attraction to country vicar, who seems to share her passion for the arts and literature.

Jeremy, third son, was forced into the Church by his father. He loves the charity work, but isn't completely fulfilled by his duties. He's also secretly really into the naughty novels written by "A Lady of Dubious Quality." Trouble is, his moralistic father wants to expose the "Lady," both to stop her from ruining English society AND to aid his rising star in Parliament.

Jeremy reluctantly takes on the task, bringing him to London. He meets and is immediately attracted to Lady Sarah. Despite both their family's disapproval, they quickly marry, but both still feel like something is missing, despite their torrid bed-sport.

Secrets secrets are no fun, especially when your husband is trying to ruin your career.

Wicked, especially with the vicar parts, I enjoyed this tale. There were some parts that bothered me and kept me from LOVING the book. I was annoyed that Jeremy had a previous lover (one time). Why not keep him a virgin? He got all his pointers from Sarah's books anyway, so I felt like he didn't need to have the past assignation and it made him less interesting.

Eva Leigh also seems to really like this underground sex club, as it appears in all of her novels I've read so far. I didn't really like the almost "cheating" aspect of both characters running into each other there but not recognizing each other.
