Sebastian Malheur is the most dangerous sort of rake: an educated one. When he’s not scandalizing ladies in the bedchamber, he’s outraging proper society with his scientific theories. He’s desired, reviled, acclaimed, and despised—and he laughs through it all. Violet Waterfield, the widowed Countess of Cambury, on the other hand, is entirely respectable, and she’d like to stay that way. But Violet has a secret that is beyond ruinous, one that ties her irrevocably to England’s most infamous scoundrel: Sebastian’s theories aren’t his. They’re hers. So when Sebastian threatens to dissolve their years-long conspiracy, she’ll do anything to save their partnership...even if it means opening her vulnerable heart to the rake who could destroy it for good.

"TW: Miscarriage. Emotional abuse.<br/><br/>I liked this book, but I didn't LOVE it. I did like how Sebastian falls first, and when he falls, he falls HARD. The reticence on Violet's part, which is interesting because she's not like that with anyone else up until this book, was justifiable but annoying. I just felt like it took FOREVER for her to break down her walls and get with Sebastian.<br/><br/>The scenes in this book were pretty vanilla. You get to see the other couples (Robert & Minnie and Oliver & Jane) which was nice but nothing was mind-blowingly awesome. Even the 3rd act conflict was like a bottle rocket: A blast, a pretty color & then nothing.<br/><br/>So far, the first book is the only one that has my heart."
