The Scandalous Women of the Ton

review 1: As in the first book in the series, I loved the originality of the story, and how actual historical events were used as a background. The author did a good job of taking an unlikeable secondary character in the first book, and turning her into a very likeable heroine in the second. I found myself thoroughly engrossed in the story the entire time. My one disappointment was the end... I wanted more of an epilogue, or at least a glimpse into their immediate future. I didn't like the fact that they were "never found" again, so it is up to our imaginations. Perhaps we will get more info in the next book, or future books, I don't know. I enjoyed it, overall.
review 2: This was my first experience reading a book by author Nicola Cornick. It is the story of Lott... moreie Cummings who after being divorced by her sucessful banker husband, has fallen from the top of Londons's society to the dark and sinful life in a seedy brothel. There she is approached by Ethan Ryder, the illegitimate son of a Duke, and now French prisoner of war held on parole by the British. Ethan proposes an offer for Lottie to become is paid and kept mistress in the back country town of Wantage. Doing next to anything to prevent herself from stooping to the levels of becoming a whore, Lottie accepts Ethan's offer. What starts out as a mutual business arrangement soon becomes so much more. I found this story to be well written with lots of action, excitement and intrique with many secrets discovered a long the way. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more of Nicola Conick's work. less
