The Luckiest Lady in London

By Sherry Thomas

Book Overview

From the superbly gifted Sherry Thomas comes this beautifully written romance about a marriage of convenience that turns inconveniently passionate... Felix Rivendale, the Marquess of Wrenworth, is The Ideal Gentleman, a man all men want to be and all women want to possess. Even Felix himself almost believes this golden image. But underneath is a damaged soul soothed only by public adulation. Louisa Cantwell needs to marry well to support her sisters. She does not, however, want Lord Wrenworth--though he seems inexplicably interested in her. She mistrusts his outward perfection, and the praise he garners everywhere he goes. Still, when he is the only man to propose at the end of the London season, she reluctantly accepts. Louisa does not understand her husband's mysterious purposes, but she cannot deny the pleasure her body takes in his touch. Nor can she deny the pull this magnetic man exerts upon her. But does she dare to fall in love with a man so full of dark secrets, any one of which could devastate her, if she were to get any closer?

Customer Reviews

Amazing!

I wish Thomas still wrote romances. Her writing is so nuanced and clever and this book has tons of laugh-out-loud moments. One of my favorite romances.

This is the best book I've read this year and the steamiest!

It's written more like Pride and Prejudice than a modern romance novel and I was very surprised to find that it was published only a few years ago. I was 100% invested in the characters from the beginning and I stayed up all night to finish. Couldn't put it down!
