In Love With a Wicked Man (MacLachlan Family & Friends #9) by Liz Carlyle

In Love with a Wicked Man - Liz Carlyle

I did not know this was book nine in a series until I went to write my review - and I still completely loved it. It worked perfectly as a stand alone, but now I have another series and eight books to catch up with! 

Lady Kate d'Allenay is a rare woman in England - she was able to inherit her families title and estates without needing to have a husband. She has poured her life into making the estate a well-run prosperous place for her family and her people. Lord Edward Quartermaine is about to shake her simple life up quite a bit by falling on his head and forgetting who he is. 

Edward is quite a handsome man, and there are a few dialogs about this topic that are quite humerous and very clever. The dialog in this book was one of the things I liked best. It flowed naturally and was a joy to read. Both Edward and Kate know that their attraction shouldn't go anywhere, but they can't seem to keep their hands off each other. In fact, once Edward's memory returns it seems to get even harder for them to stay apart. 

Things become especially interesting during the house party Kate hosts for her mother (but god forbid you call her that). Her mother is one of the most amazing characters I have ever read and pushes several situations to a head in this story. With a horrid ex-fiance running around, Kate is a little overwhelmed and when things take a turn for an even worse side, well, I just couldn't put the book down. 

To top it all off there are two side romances that are perfectly woven into the fabric of Kate and Edward's story. It wouldn't have been the same without them, but they never stole the spotlight from the main show, just made it even better.
