Description

Bridget's downfall at the hands of a duke forces Will to save her.

Lady Bridget is determined to marry well, to a man not of the great family.

When the Duke of Taplow takes advantage of her, William Wardell, heir to the Marquiss of Farleigh and great family member, is forced to marry her himself to save her reputation…which also happens to remove the family pressure upon him to wed and get himself an heir.

The agreement only brings more strife into their lives for they are both stubborn, willful and most definitely not the marrying kind…

Veil of Honor is the sixth book in the Scandalous Scions series, which brings together the members of three great families, to love and play under the gaze of the Victorian era's moralistic, straight-laced society.

Praise for Veil of Honor:

William, a sigh worthy hero.

This author puts you squarely back into history with the sights, sounds and scents of the times.

Bravo! And may this great family continue to flourish and grow.

I particularly enjoyed the era this story is set on, where women are starting to come forward and fight for their rights, industry is about to be born and still honor is best fought for in the old ways.

I don't give many 5-Star reviews because I'm just that picky. This book gets one because it is so well-written.

Even when you think you can't be surprised, there is a twist, a turn, a scandal that will.

The conversations at the gatherings are so natural and flowing that I feel like I am actually there.

I have to admit that I tried to figure out just how the story would play out but my guesses were not even close. Just a great read.

I enjoyed this story immensely, especially the process of the characters maturing and evolving into the solid relationship with each other they both deserve.

This was so good. A great addition to this series about a great family.

"Something most of society would call contemptible and fit for nothing but poets and dreamers, yet it is the burning heart of this family and its greatest strength" My heart melts!
