A Scoundrel’s Kiss
Podrobnosti o e‑knize
Miss Marie LeBon is a brilliant scientist and a determined spinster—until she awakens in Paris with no memory of the accident that has erased her name and her past. A handsome stranger comes to her rescue, claiming to be her husband...but he’s secretly a British agent, Max D'Avenant, sent to abduct her and learn the truth about a new French weapon. With danger on all sides, the “newlyweds” go into hiding together, and Max soon finds himself torn between his loyalty to the English Crown and his love for this enchanting lady he is sworn to betray.

“Wow! I am a VERY picky reader, and I give out very few five-star reviews. But I just can’t say enough good things about A Scoundrel’s Kiss. Sometimes, after reading a string of bad romance novels, a book like this will remind me of why I read romance in the first place. I devoured this book in a day. I just couldn’t put it down. Highly recommended.” – Goodreads reviewer
“Shelly Thacker is a terrific writer! I’m writing this review at 4:30 in the morning as I just couldn’t stop reading. I highly recommend this book and this series.” – Goodreads reviewer
