Lady Sarah Marchmain is a young woman who rebels against ordinary “womenly ways” in Puddling-on-the-Wold, England in 1882. She has decided that marriage is out of the question and she prefers men’s trousers to a ball gown. She is living in a rehabilitation center; her father’s way of getting her “character ” back to where it belongs. A nearby son of a baron, Tristen Sykes, appears at the center and circumstances throw the two together, changing their lives forever. An enjoyable story with plenty of spicy love and chuckling humor. I enjoyed the dialogue and thought the characters were well-developed and likable. Recommended for lovers of historical romance.

Seducing Mr. Sykes by Maggie Robinson will be available June 20, 2017 by Lyrical Press/Kensington Books. An egalley of this book was made available by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.
