Stephanie and the Wicked Deceiver

A Fun Regency Romp (The Wild Marchmonts, Book 2)

De: Alicia Cameron

Narrado por: Helen Taylor

A light-hearted Regency tale, the next in the Wild Marchmonts series.

Stephanie Marchmont, 17 years, has been sent from London to cool her heels in a country house in Surrey, to be separated from her loving family as punishment for her putting herself in danger there once too often. But she encounters a band of footpads attacking a gentleman, and enters the fray with her customary bravery.

The Earl of Hedley is entranced by his rescuer's offer to teach him some lessons in manly sport, and although he is the foremost sportsman in England, he wickedly accepts her help.

There begins the jest that his friends Sir Rupert Armitage, Lord Benjamin Fortescue and the young Horace Pettigrew join in on, and Stephanie's adventures continue.
But will all the friends continue to see Stephanie as merely an amusement ? Or will hearts collide?

Delightful Regency with Unusual Heroine

I very much enjoy Alicia Cameron’s books and this new series is delightful. The ‘Wild’ Marchmonts are so Unique and Stephanie Marchmont is so unusual for a young lady of the Regency. She is certainly unlike any Regency heroine I have ever come across. But from the introduction of the Five Miss Marchmonts in book one, I anticipate at least 2 more unusual sisters in future books. This book, Stephanie’s story, introduces several friends of Stephanie’s romantic interest, and these characters are likely to play a part in the love lives of the remaining unmarried sisters. And Helen Taylor is an excellent reader. I hope she remains the narrator for all the books in this series.
