About this ebook

He’s betrothed… but not to the woman who holds his heart.

Jessica Brentwood came to London determined to escape her past. With her father’s disgrace lingering like a shadow, she vows to uphold a flawless reputation during her first Season. But when she’s found in a compromising position—utterly innocent yet undeniably scandalous—with none other than the wicked Duke of Bainbridge, her plans for propriety are dashed. Offered a marriage of necessity, Jessica stuns Society by refusing. She’d rather face ruin than be bound to a notorious rake… no matter how much he stirs her curiosity.

Crispin Rowley, Duke of Bainbridge, has lived beneath the label of a rogue for years—some of it earned, much of it exaggerated. Betrothed since childhood to a woman he doesn’t love, he never imagined escape would come in the form of the spirited Miss Brentwood. He’s long admired her from a distance, but when a cruel scheme forces them together, his desire to protect her becomes something far more dangerous… and deeply personal.

As whispers fly and reputations hang by a thread, Crispin must choose between duty and the one woman who sees beyond the scandal. And Jessica must decide if she dares trust the man who claims to cherish her… even as the past threatens to destroy them both.

Wooed by a Wicked Duke is book 5 in the Seductive Scoundrels series by Collette Cameron. Each book can be read as a stand alone; however, they are so much richer read in order. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Jessica Brentwood is a great character- feisty but vulnerable too. I could relate to her desire for friendship only to be hurt through it all. The hero wasn’t my favorite in Cameron’s line up of swoon worthy males - that place goes to Ansley from The Earl of Scarborough - but still Crispin is quite a handsome, witty devil. You can’t go wrong with a Cameron romance. Looking forward to more.

Collette Cameron has added another engaging read to her Seductive Scoundrels series with Wooed By a Wicked Duke, book 5 in the series. I was thoroughly caught up and engrossed in the story of Jessica Brentwood and Crispin Rolston, the Duke of Bainbridge. They face scandal, a malicious scheme, and a few unsavory characters and yet Ms. Cameron has lightened it all with her witty descriptions and droll humor throughout. This was a delightful and gripping good read. Read it…you won’t be disappointed. I was fortunate to receive an advance copy of this work and offer this voluntary review. All opinions stated are my own.

Crispin, Duke of Bainbridge, hasn’t been able to think of any way to get out of his betrothal. Apparently, his betrothed is as opposed to the match as he is, and she has found a way out. She and her cohort perpetrate a hoax that sees Crispin and Jessica Brentwood are compromised. This should make both of them happy, but things are never that easy. This is a great story. Terrific characters and an interesting plot keep your attention from beginning to end. The Brentwoods and their friends and family pull together; villains pop up from all sides. There are twists, turns, mystery, betrayal and revenge, and definitely a few surprises (the one at the end is a doozy). I thoroughly enjoyed this one and highly recommend it. I look forward to James Brentwood’s story.
