Publisher's Summary

Lady Jo Danvers has declared war on her humdrum life.

Armed with a list of ways to be wicked, she will step out of her role as never-been-kissed wallflower and experience passion. With the right gentleman, of course. She just has to find him. 

Mr. Elijah Decker, the handsome businessman she cannot stop thinking about, is definitely no gentleman. And he is decidedly all wrong. Unfortunately for Jo, she has unwittingly given him her list. When Decker discovers Jo’s list mistakenly tucked between the pages of a pamphlet for the Lady’s Suffrage Society, he is intrigued. And after she realizes her error and storms his office demanding he return it, Decker agrees on one condition: that she accept his aid in crossing off each scandalous act. 

What begins as a lark quickly sizzles into something deeper and unexpected. But Decker’s dark side may tear them apart before Jo’s sinful quest is complete....

Brilliantly Naughty

This is my new favorite book and author but I like steamy romances. There were witty moments where I laughed out loud but it does have a lot of sexy scenes and desires. The lady makes a list of ways to be wicked and accidentally leaves it for a gentleman to find and he wants to be the one to help complete it. I thought it was a perfectly well written romance.

soft Porn

The first few books I read from Scarlet S were okay and because the narrator was R lander I kept going, but enough is enough. This author uses sex as a substitute for a relationship ( like some real life people). There is no way to explain this book outside of soft porn. I am really no prude, but wow is this awful!
The h/h are attracted to each other for no reason I can figure out. Even the hero says this...and if he can't figure it out, then how can a reader? Is it just because the heroine is beautiful ( and yes, I am growing to hate the beautiful wallflower that doesn't know she's so wonderful). The idea that he has found a private list and that's how they meet is cute and was done in "9 rules to break when romancing a rake". I liked it there because the relationship developed and was believable. Not here.
Not only is there a lot of sex acts, but the hero is constantly letting the reader know the status of his "prick". It's not the weather, so I don't need so many updates! I would rather there be more conversations between the h/h, than the hero and his anatomy. I will warn anyone brave enough to try this book, the reference to "cream" is not about adding something to coffee...so beware.
The prior book "lady ruthless" is the same and I hoped that it was just to catch the reader and then the books would get better, but no, just more of the same. I am so thankful these were free downloads and I did not lose a credit/money. Even free it is a waste, as time is precious . I am giving up on scarlet scot and I see that R lander is no longer the narrator for her book series, so I am not the only one giving up.
The narration is not good either, but I think it took 2 people to get through all the sex scenes as I am sure one person could not take it. It does not help to have two different narrators for this kind of a book, as nothing would help and to use 2 talents is a waste . These 2 narrators have such different styles of reading and voices that it is confusing and disorients the reader.
instead of enhancing the book.
Overall it is not worth a credit and I would not recommend the first 2 books, therefore the entire series falls short if 1/3 is awful. If I wanted to even try I don't think paying for a third book would be a good idea.

a little cruder than the usual steamy romance

this story doesn't have the same type of disturbing interactions of the first book, although the guy is bit a jerk at times, their interactions are at least consenting. this book also has the dual perspective story telling, so with the dual narration you have 4 voices for the 2 main characters, which gets annoying, especially as the male narrator cannot do female voices well. he also cannot pronounce bollocks. contains explicit sexual language, more the usual steamy romance.

Lady wallflower

Thoroughly enjoyed this book definitely hope for more great writing wonderful characters will read again

Amazing verbal acting

This story was so funny, heart wrenching, and adorable. Decker was an amazing hero, funny, arrogant, sometimes self aware sometimes not. Josie was a shy girl embracing her inner strength, but all heart and goodness. Decker hide behind his Roguish businessman facade, hiding a kind and loving heart. The narrators brought the story to life and made you laugh, clench with anxiety, feel.

Lady Wallflower

There is something about listening to a book that changes so much about it. Cornell Collins was magnificent to listen to! Anais was wonderful as well. It was amazing hear her slip to an American accent for even just a few lines. I highly recommend this reading.

Thoroughly Enjoyed !

Can't wait for next credit to get next book in series. Loved the narrators great job with characters.

a bit too explicit

the story would have held up just as well with a bit less explicit sex scenes

Awesome!

Rarely are second books better than the first, this one was awesome! After the terrible narration in book 1, I wasn’t expecting much. Miss Chase and Mr. Collins were great! Thank you for bringing this book to life.

Very good story and I really enjoyed it

It was well narrated by both. So funny and heartfelt. I liked everything about it.

brilliant narrator added gentle humour

narrator added gentle humour in this steamy romp through victorian london. preferred this story and narration to book 1
thanks for the free book, audible!

Steamy love story

A surprisingly mature heroine given her nineteen years wins over a dissolute rake. Lots of predictable sex - rather boring considering his chequered past. I love Cornell Collins as a narrator. Anaïs Inara Chase is also very good.
