Wager for a Lady's Hand by L.G. Rollins

3.0

We get to know Marianne, whose father is less than reputable, sadly. She's put in a position that makes things precarious for her at best! Her father is less than reputable and the way he treats her is abominable. She has to take her life into her own hands. She's got spunk and I liked her.

Then there's Lord Sheridan who is a barrister working his way up the ranks. He's after Lord Cockell who is nefarious for robbing the gentry blind. He's one of the good guys trying to do the right thing! I liked how determined and steadfast he was. Whether it was with his brother, Marianne, or others he showed patience and consideration.

Let me tell you, Cockell is quite the evil man who thinks women are basically repugnant. He's easy to dislike ladies and gentlemen. Unfortunately, Marianne gets lured into his web of lies and deceit. Lord Sheridan is the one we're rooting for from beginning to end!

*I received this book for review. This is my personal opinion.
