Gina's Reviews > Scoundrel

The Blades are trying to save magic once again in book 2 of this series. This books is about London Harcourt, she is coming out of official mourning and she is ready to start living her life. What London finds out is her father is a member of The Heir's, the group who is trying to steal magic for their own use. Bennett Day is a member of the the Blades and man who loves to be a scoundrel, he loves women, loves sex.

Once again I am immersed in another world, magic, adventure, passion, sex, and it's a historical to boot! i loved it! I loved London Harcourt (not her name though), she is an independent, outspoken, woman. She doesn't need a man to tell her what to do, in fact in more then one instance it is her not Bennett who takes the lead in their sexual encounters! (you go girl).

Bennett Day is a lovable scoundrel, he definitely loves his sex and he loves every woman he is with. He is funny, sweet, strong and he is totally convinced he is incapable of love . As much as he likes London he is totally upfront with her that their relationship does not have a future and never will. But he very much wants to enjoy the "now", so they go about having steamy sex, YAY!

I enjoyed the dialogue between these two strong characters, they spoke as equals no "damsel in distress" here. And I loved the secondary characters in this book, solid enjoyable characters. Looking for a historical adventure with magic and lovable characters, give this one a try!
