The Kiss of
a Stranger
When Crispin, Lord Cavratt, thoroughly and scandalously
kisses a serving woman in the garden of a country inn, he assumes the encounter
will be of no consequence. But he couldn't be more mistaken--the maid is not
only a lady of birth, she's the niece of a very large, exceptionally angry
gentlemen, who claims Crispin has compromised his niece beyond redemption. The
dismayed young lord has no choice but to marry Miss Catherine Thorndale, who
lacks both money and refinement and assumes all men are as vicious as her
guardian uncle.
Trapped between an unwanted marriage and a hasty annulment, which would leave his reputation tainted and Catherine's utterly ruined, Crispin begins guiding his wife's transformation from a socially petrified country girl to a lady of society. Their unfolding relationship reveals encouraging surprises for both of them, and privately each of them wonders if theirs may become a true marriage of the heart. But their hopes are dashed when forces conspire to split asunder what fate has granted. As a battle of wits escalates into a life-threatening confrontation, will it be possible for Crispin and Catherine to live happily ever after?

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed this sweet regency
romance. The romance was fun and the characters witty. I thought she did ever
well with Crispin and Catherine. If you are looking for a clean, sweet romance,
Sarah M. Eden is your author! Loved this book.
Note: Very clean, PG rating, Five Stars
