Scandal in Spades by Wendy LaCapra

Giles Langley, the Marquess of Bromton has learned that he is a bastard.  As he is an honorable man, he attempts to bestow his estate upon the rightful heir by manipulating a high-stakes card game.  When the winner says that he doesn't want the estate, but he wants Bromton to marry his older sister, Bromton agrees.

Lady Katherine has lived the life of a recluse and spinster since Brummell declared she was the least marriageable lady in all of England.  Her brother brings home his friend, the Marquess of Bromton.  Katherine knows her brother is attempting a match.  After attempting to foil the attempt, Bromton slowly wins over Katherine.  Katherine agrees to marry Bromton.  When he is forced to acknowledge his past, he could destroy his own future.

What a great read!  I loved the characters and the plot.  The connection between Katherine and Bromton was great.  They were perfect for each other.  I liked how she helped him find himself again.  The secondary characters added to the plot.

I received an ARC from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.  Thank you!
