Really good read! I really looked forward to reading about Evie as she seemed the one out of all of the wallflowers who would have trouble finding someone. Alas, this highly romantic novel, which is book 3 of the series, is a captivating, leisurely read that all romance lovers will enjoy. I only give it 4 stars as the there is little drama and no real climax to the book - would have been a Brilliant read if it had!

I would agree that this is my favourite 'Wallflower' book, along with "It happened one Autumn". The rake, Sebastion is a heartless man who cares for noone, and certainly isn't faithful for more than 2 minutes. Nevertheless, Evie talks him into marrying her to save her from her wicked relatives. Sebastion 'finds' himself as a result of Evie's love, and the reswult is a sensula, emotional romance that will enthrall you. Highly recommended.

This is probably my favourite of the wallflower series. Heiress to a great fortune, Evie, is a shy girl with a stutter who is forced to live with her mother's aristocratic family. When she is forbidden to visit her dying father she seeks out of one of town’s most notorious rakes, Lord St Vincent, with an offer of marriage.

The story of the Wallflowers continues and in this instalment Evie's sensuality is unmasked. At the same time she uncovers her lover's barriers within the backdrop of danger and excitement.
