A Night of Scandal by Sarah Morgan
3.0
I like Sarah Morgan's writing, but I couldn't get "lost" in this story. I always felt like I was reading a book instead of feeling immersed. Katie is a likeable enough heroine, but I'm tired of women who think that having a figure means they're "fat." Nathaniel thinks about her "long, slim legs" so she can't exactly be pudgy. She feels she's unattractive because she's "padded," which in this case simply meant she had a bust line you could measure and she had some shape to her derriere.
Nathaniel is a tortured soul, and even though his back story is definitely sad, his actions seem over-the-top. Since this is an HP and there isn't a lot of time for subtle character development I accepted the drama.
Even with the caveats, Morgan does a good job with this story and I'll continue to seek out her backlist.
