About this ebook

Lady Phoebe Fairchild is well aware that the ton would be appalled to learn of a young lady of quality involved in a trade. Therefore, she resorts to selling her beautiful handmade gowns under a fictitious name: Madame Dupree. So when circumstances force her to visit the estate of William Darby, the Viscount of Summerfield, to design ball gowns for his sisters, she assumes Madame's identity. Phoebe's discomfort in her new position as hired help is nothing compared to her visceral attraction to the viscount himself. Heathenishly handsome and shamelessly seductive, Will invites her to be his mistress -- and Phoebe is shockingly tempted to accept. But as their desire for each other grows and the risk of exposure becomes even greater, Phoebe is in dire danger of losing her reputation, her livelihood -- and her chance of becoming the bride of the man whose passion has claimed her forever.

A fairly good story, with a lot of holes--but this is standard for romances. It did bother me that the author did not know that a blacksmith is called a "smith" rather than a "smithy"--the latter term refers to the place, not the man. If you don't mind suspending your disbelief and wading through the usual padding that is found in this type of book, it's an okay read.

A little predictable, much like all of Julia London's books, but I enjoyed it thoroughly none the less.
