Product Description

Succumbing to sin . . .

Bethany Munro was once madly in love with the dashing Ian Rockwell. Then Ian left on a mission for the Crown, and Bethany was forced to put her heart aside. . . until one glittering night when she spies him across a crowded ballroom, and the feelings she once felt come rushing back. But she has her secrets. . .

. . . and so does he. Sir Ian Rockwell has led a dangerous life and is now a suspect in a crime he did not commit. He never imagined the naïve girl he knew so long ago could be the beauty standing before him now, or that she would be the one who could help him prove his innocence. But in a world of glamour and intrigue, where nothing is as it seems, their perilous game of seduction soon turns into a night of sin, a night where they both discover the only thing more dangerous than passion is falling in love.

About the Author

Melody Thomas is a wordsmith, a creator of dreams, and a passionate believer in happy endings. A product of thirteen schools and twenty-two moves stretching across the United States and Europe, she is a self-proclaimed gypsy. Her fascination with historical romance began when, in her teens, she visited the Tower of London and learned that Henry the Eighth had beheaded two of his wives. This was great fodder for her teenage imagination and the start of a love affair with history, intrigue, and irresistible heroes.

5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite author!!, March 5, 2008
The first book by Melody Thomas that I had the pleasure of reading was A Match Made in Scandal, the 3rd book in the Donnally series. It was unbelievably good. I promptly went out and bought every book she's ever written. This book Sin and Scandal in England was every bit as good as her previous ones. I have read more books by more authors too numerous to count, and this author is one of the best. She literally has a way of bringing the books to life. I don't even need to read an excerpt or the back cover of her books; I will buy them simply because her name is listed as the author.

4.0 out of 5 stars interesting romantic intrigue, October 1, 2007
Bethany Munro is elated that the one man she loves Sir Ian Rockwell is at Whitley Court. On the other hand, Ian wants nothing to do with the woman who touches his heart as he has no time for a female in his life. However, he needs to know why she is talking to Lord Whitley, considered the dangerous chief of an anarchist group that includes an Italian arms manufacturer; Ian's mission is to go undercover to learn what these terrorists plot next.

Bethany is also on a quest. She seeks to learn what happened to her vanished former science teacher, Mrs., Langley, who was last seen at Whitley Court. As he falls in love while trying to keep Bethany safe and complete his assignment, her amateur sleuthing leaves both in danger from predators who will kill anyone in their way.

SIN AND SCANDAL IN ENGLAND is an interesting romantic intrigue in which everyone seems to have a hidden agenda even the somewhat innocent heroine and no one trusts anyone if they are smart. The story line is fast-paced as Ian wants Bethany to leave so she will be safe, but she refuses as her undertaking comes first. Thus Ian who was falling in love with her when she was a naive seventeen year old risks his mission to keep his beloved from harm. Although the suspense turns over the top of Big Ben, fans will enjoy this gender battle inside of a pair of competing undercover inquiries, one by an amateur sleuth while the other by a professional.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sin and Scandal in England, October 9, 2007
Bethany Munro had not laid eyes on Ian Rockwell, the man she was secretly in love with, for three years. Seeing him again at a ball with a countess on his arm shocks her to the core, but she does her best to carry on as normal. This is harder than Bethany expects because when his eyes meet hers across the crowded ballroom, all of the feelings Bethany felt for him three years ago that she tried to forget and suppress, come back tenfold in a matter of seconds. Escaping the throng, Bethany tries to get away but to no avail when Ian follows her. What begins as a flirtation turns into so much more. When the smoke clears, the lovers find themselves facing espionage and danger, and life as they know it, no longer exists.

I love Melody Thomas and her historical novels. I know that every time I pick up one of her romances that I will be entertained, on the edge of my seat and treated to a fantastic love story. Sin and Scandal in England was that and so much more. Anyone who has ever yearned for another person can instantly relate to Bethany and her love for Ian. Ian, a dashing and bold hero, was so much more than a good-looking male lead. He was loyal and protective, and while his job kept him from Bethany for so long, his heart kept her memory warm.
