BLURB
Boston’s most infamous femme fatale meets her match in a dangerously mild Englishman who has vowed to never marry in this romantic standalone from Washington Post bestselling author L.J. Shen
Emmabelle Penrose has cruised through life never needing a man, a plan that has worked stunningly well until about five minutes ago, when she decided she must have a baby.
Devon Whitehall is 6’2” of premium DNA, financial security, and British royal titles. Best of all, he fears the one thing she dreads the most: getting hitched.
Emmabelle figures it’s a no-brainer when Devon offers his services—sperm and involvement in her future child’s life.
What begins as an innocent, modern-family arrangement, quickly erodes into a web of lies, dark pasts, and unfurled secrets.
Inside this chaos, Emmabelle and Devon are forced to face the awful truth—they are capable of love.
Even worse, they might feel it toward each other.
MY OPINION
Aww! I was waiting for the final installment of „Boston Belles” - „The Rake”. The story of Devon and Emmabelle story is something that we didn't met in previous books written by L.J. Shen.
And! I still don't know which book is better „The Villain” or „The Rake”. Because both of them are totally awesome to me.
I TOTALLY LOVE this idea how the author connects Belle and Devon. Also, I was suprised but in a good way. While I was reading this story I had a smile on my face.
Devon is a fantastic hero! His impassive responses to his mother and others people are a pure perfection. This guy has my heart!
Belle and her problems made me sad. I was in her story from the first chapter and I was cheering for her throughout the book.
We have here nice relationship, between two people, which are perfect for each other. To me „The Rake” is a good final book of „Boston Belles” series. It was a pleasure to read these all four stories and I can't wait to read another one, written by L.J. Shen.
