A Night of Scandal by Sarah Morgan
4.0
My first Presents ever! I think if more of them were like this (at least plotline wise) I might be more apt to pick them up. I can't really get into the Greek/Sheik/Heir/Virgin/Secretary/Mistress angles. A Night of Scandal had a plot that felt a little more grounded in reality...at least for a Presents title ;)
The writing was enjoyable and didn't feel rushed or "show not tell" which can be hard with such a limited number of words. I'd be interested in trying other Sarah Morgan titles and would like to see what she can do in a longer format.
My only real complaint was a small, nit-picky thing. There was a lot of using the hero's whole name...Nathaniel Wolfe this, Nathaniel Wolfe that, Nathaniel Wolfe went here and there and everywhere! Ditto for one of the movies he starred in, Alpha Man. At a certain point it's like...I KNOW HIS NAME AND YOU'VE MENTIONED THE MOVIE 87 THOUSAND TIMES THANKS. Overall all that was a personal thing I noticed and it didn't really affect the storyline itself.
