About this eBook

The third trio of novels in the beloved historical romance series in one set. 

The historical romance series, Scandalous Scions, brings together the members of three great families, to love and play under the gaze of the Victorian era’s moralistic, straight-laced society. 

 

Season of Denial 

 

He’s a rake, she’s not quite a spinster. Life is interesting when they’re together, but… 

When her twin sister, Bridget, betrays Lady Mairin’s trust by marrying a man within the Great Family, Mairin determines she will find a suitable husband elsewhere, no matter what. 

 

Iefan Davies, the family rakehell, who has rejected both the family and society, introduces Mairin to the Duke of Gascony, then teaches her to woo the duke. Between seduction lessons, Iefan shows her the world beyond the ton. 

 

Neither considers the other suitable marriage material, for Mairin has a duke in her sights, while Iefan has no intention of curtailing his bachelor ways, although life is certainly interesting when they’re together. 

 

The story takes you out of the "norm" for the series and adds twists and turns that make this one of the best books of the series.– Reader Review 

 

Rules of Engagement 

 

They loved each other before she died. Now she can’t remember why. 

Lady Eleanore Neville, sister to the Duke of Gainford, was thought to have been lost at sea. Miraculously, she was rescued, only now her life is empty of meaning. She reaches for steadily more risqué entertainment and company in an effort to find it. 

 

Cian, Earl of Innesford and the head of the Williams family, whom the Nevilles openly despise, has loved Eleanore for years. He hovers on the edge of Eleanore’s life, helping the Duke curtail the worst of Eleanore’s excesses, despite knowing there is no hope of his beloved Ellie ever truly being his. 

 

The delicate balance begins to unravel when Cian discovers a nude portrait of Eleanore in a public gallery and is forced to act… 

 

Each book in this series leaves me with the thought "this one is by far the best one"; wrong again.—Reader Review 

 

Degree of Solitude 

 

The man she once loved is now a monster she doesn’t know. 

Catrin and Daniel love each other, but Daniel refused to further their relationship for fear of curtailing Catrin’s intellectual and personal freedom, and dooming her to a life of domestic servitude as his wife. Yet their lives remain entangled. 

 

When Daniel is shot in the face during a family rescue in Algeria, he brutally severs the ties between them and removes himself to a remote village in Pembrokeshire, Wales. 

 

Catrin travels to Wales in a last bid to resolve their differences, but the terrifying man she finds there is not the Daniel she once knew… 

 

Delightfully descriptive language that allows the reader to feel the constricting corsets and breathe deeply of the mountain air.—Reader Review

Scandalous Scions Box three consists of three stories of books: Season of Denial, Rules of Engagement, and Degree of Solitude. I love that the beginning of the books outlines the families and children, it was great as I then knew on where each person fits within the story. With the description of scenery, buildings, setting and definitely the characters as I was able to envision on where they are and appropriately how I would view on what the characters would look like and what they are wearing. I am amazed that the very strong young women were able to alter their chosen rogue men into something that fits themselves. All this without changing either characters still being left intact being just who they are, while finding the love, ambition and adventure that they all crave. It’s great to see that love endures all and able to thaw and melt hardened hearts. A recommended box set for those who indeed adores to read historical romantic fiction. “I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.”

What a delight! Three enthralling romances! These three books are a welcome addition to one of my favourite book series EVER, all with such different storylines in each novel, whilst the families central to the whole series are made up of such diverse and interesting characters. It's a very satisfying read of action that moves apace with interesting adventures and complex developing relationships. It’s a delight for a Victorian-set novel to give the reader a peek beyond the strictures of The Ton and their Victorian London society facade into the close family insights that Tracy Cooper-Posey provides in the Scandalous Scions series. This series is always exciting and I love the stimulation each book provides whether it be for romance; an escape to another 'world' (Victorian England); a raunchy frolic on the way to commitment; a long slow boil of passion; murder and mystery; edge of my seat suspense; and always strong complex main characters! I highly recommend reading the series in order for a richer experience, as a lot of the family we have already met in preceding novels are involved again and again. Yay!

Season of Denial - What an exciting historical romance. You can tell the author does plenty of research for this time period; so much so that you'd swear she was part of this great family. We have a man, known as a womanizer, who wants nothing of the settled married life and is use to doing what he pleases without having to answer to a wife. We also have family member who is determined not to marry a member of the "family" as her sister has done, but know not how to win and keep the man she wants.. After years of not seeing each other, they meet unexpectedly and wind up agreeing to help each other; one from trouble the other from spinsterhood. Help each other they do and both learn along the way that their lives can be so much better with changes they learn while helping each other. The story is not only thrilling and comical at times, but as always we learn more of the people who comprise this very different and unconventional family; and what would the story be without some scandal along the way. We have a great ending and more characters to read about in future Scandalous Scions wonderful stories. If you haven't started book 7, DO IT NOW, and if your one of those poor souls who haven't picked up book 1 yet; all I can say is your missing out on adventure, heartache, surprises and love. Rules of Engagement - Each book in this series leaves me with the thought "this one is by far the best one"; wrong again. The author has given us such a strong emotional story of loss by death but brought back by sheer will of strength. I will not give spoilers for I feel that would be an injustice to you, the reader. I want you to feel the despair of loss and the discovery of helpless joy and longing. You will meet characters of such strength that they believe there is no choice but to be honorable to the past. But first one of them must live life at it's fullest in order to feel "alive". Patience, protectiveness, hidden love, all this you'll read. Then "the family" will show love matters more than anything else, but our characters must also believe this. Towards the end I felt great joy, then just one chapter away I was filled with tears and sadness at choices made because of "doing the honorable thing". The author takes us on an emotional rollercoaster ride. You MUST read this book and take the ride along with those of us that have read it. The best book in the series, or is it? Well for me, I'll know when I read the next one. Degree of Solitude - Another amazing story in the Scandalous Scions series. Our main characters, Catrin and Daniel, have been in love with each other for a long time, just took them a while to realize it. They finally figure it out, but Daniel turns her away. But Catrin decides she's not going to give up on being together, no matter how much time passes or the problems they each encounter. At times the problems seem insurmountable. I'm trying not to give you spoilers, so go and pick up this book from this awesome series and surround yourself with adventure, danger, and amazing love.
