A Proper Facade (Proper Scandals #4) by Esther Hatch, Book Review

By Books Are Sanity!!! -

 


Book Summary:

Mercy Rothschild has always been granted an unusually long tether by her parents, who have never pushed her to marry until she’s ready. She assumes that when the right man comes along, she will marry for love. However, even her long-suffering parents have their limits. As she embarks on her third Season, they begin to pressure her to find a match. And the Duke of Harrington is the perfect candidate.

Nicholas Kendrick, Duke of Harrington, follows the rules of the ton meticulously. When he determines that Mercy is the ideal candidate for a wife, he marches dutifully toward her along the courtship path. Desperate to extricate herself from Harrington’s advances, Mercy concludes that there is only one course of action: she must push her intended into the arms of another woman. But when Mercy becomes acquainted with the man behind the proper facade, her plans come crashing down as she realizes that stiff and proper Harrington might be the very man she’s been waiting for. If only she hadn’t been so successful in her plot to thwart her chances with him.

My Review:

Hatch has done it again with a delightful story of romance and opposites attract! You have Nicholas who is completely proper and Mercy who just wants love and passionate moments! You couldn’t have two people farther apart on what they wanted in a relationship. Mercy was a force of nature! Once she set her mind to something it was happening! She made me laugh and smile. Nicholas was so stiff and formal, I wasn’t sure if he was capable of lightening up. Yet beneath his proper exterior was more than meets the eye!
 
I absolutely adored the cameos of characters from the previous books. Especially Lord Bryant! Watching the layers unfold in this story had me in for the long haul and I stayed up late to finish it. The romance was on point and I loved the entire book! Slow burn romance and that kissing scene, you guys, the kissing scene!!! It was amazing!!! You need to run and grab this book! I received a complimentary copy of this book; all thoughts and opinions are my own. 

Happy Reading!!!
