About this ebook

She saved his life, but can she save him from himself?

Hunter, Marquess of Aaron, has the ton fooled. Outwardly he’s a gentleman of position, with good contacts, wealth and charm. Inwardly, he’s a mess. His vice—drinking himself into a stupor most days—almost kills him when he steps in front of a hackney cab. His saviour, a most unlikely person, is an angel to gaze at, but with a tongue sharper than his sword cane.

Cecilia Smith dislikes idleness and waste. Had she been born male, she would already be working for her father’s law firm. So, on a day when she was late for an important meeting at one of her many charities, she was not impressed by having to step in and save a foxed gentleman rogue from being run over.

When their social spheres collide, Hunter is both surprised and awed by the capable, beautiful Miss Smith. Cecilia, on the other hand, is left confused and not a little worried by her assumptions about the Marquess and his demons. It is anyone’s guess whether these two people from different worlds can form one of their own…

Ratings and reviews

I was not crazy about this book at all and I do enjoy this author..We have a drunken Marquess that seems that is all he does. Then we have Cecilia and I should have been able to like her but I didn't, and that saddened me because she had some good ideas but the way she carried them out just didn't win me over. And then Hunter all he wanted to do was make her his mistress so it left a sour taste in my mouth. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

To Madden A Marquess by Tamara Gill is book two in the Lords of London series. It can truly be read as a stand alone book, but book one is also good. So far this is my favorite story by Ms. Gill. Cecilia Smith is the daughter of an attorney in Cheapside. When she miraculously saves the life of the Marquess of Aaron, her life is changed forever. Gill does a fabulous job of developing her characters and keeping the story an absolute page turner. I couldn’t put it down. I am looking forward to more from this author.

She saved his life, but can she save him from himself? Hunter, Marquis of Aaron, has the ton fooled. Outwardly he’s a gentleman of position, with good contacts, wealth and charm. His vice drinking himself into a stupor most days & it almost kills him when he steps in front of a hackney cab. His saviour, a most unlikely person in Cecilia Smith who dislikes idleness and waste. Had she been born male, she would already be working for her father’s law firm. When their social spheres collide, their witty banter is a joy but Cecilia has no time for members of the ton who she thinks are lazy & uncaring, Hunter is fascinated by Cecilia & contrives through mutual friends for them to meet occasionally. Their attraction is so apparent but they are like chalk & cheese. Another delightful read from the author which I devoured in an afternoon, the characters have plenty of depth & whilst parts are light hearted romance other parts deal with alcohol addiction & the lack of women’s rights. I certainly look forward to more in the series
