YOUR SCANDALOUS WAYS: Loretta Chase: Avon: 2008: Romance: 384 pagesJames Cordier, a younger son of a British gentleman has spent a decade on the continent as a spy for King and Country. James is tired and just wants to return to England to marry a sweet, innocent young maiden. Before he can go home he must complete one last assignment. James must retrieve valuable letters that prove Lord Elphick, a candidate for Prime Minister, betrayed England. The problem is these letters are in the possession of Lord Elphick’s former wife, Francesca Bonnard who is now Europe’s most expensive and talented courtesan.
James tracks Francesca to Venice where after she is attacked in her gondola, he realizes that others are looking for the letters as well. Can James protect Francesca without revealing who he really is and convince her to hand the letters over to him?
Following the typical Romance formula James and Francesca want to hate each other, but they can’t help falling in love, and then once they finally admit to themselves that they are in love, the truth comes out.
I enjoyed this book well enough. There are a few detailed love scenes. If you are looking for a light read in the Romance genre then this book fits the bill.
