Pursued by the Rake by Mary Lancaster

After spending the night at the princess's home unchaperoned, Hazel is ruined. She has no where to go but to the home of her former governess. After buying a ticket on the stagecoach, she misses her ride. But Sir Joseph comes to her rescue and offers to drive her to her destination.

Joseph has spent the night drinking, but when he encounters Hazel and causes her to miss her ride, he can do nothing else but off to get her to her destination. While Hazel thinks him a notorious rake, he soon reveals a side of him she's never seen.

As these two come together to take down the man responsible for Hazel's ruination, their feelings grow. Can this ruined lady and known rogue make a go of it?


I really enjoyed Joseph and Hazel's story. I like watching the come to know the other and learn that what they thought they knew was not the whole picture of the other person. This was a great start to a new series and I can't wait to read the next book!
