A Season to be Sinful by Jo Goodman
It has always seemed to me that the word count for Jo Goodman’s books is higher than for other Zebra authors – or that her editor exercises less control with her red pen. Sometimes it can weigh the book down – at other times it makes for a very interesting, although generally angst filled, long journey in the world the author has created. I am happy to say the latter applies to A Season to be Sinful.
Alexander Henry Grantham, Viscount Sheridan (aka Sherry) is spending the evening with his mistress at Covent Gardens. Due to his mind being on ending the affair, wrapping up business in London and running off to his country estate for reasons unknown, he is unaware of the drama being played out around him, in which he is the target. The event that occurs quickly ends his night.

go forth and read 🙂
I went forth. I read. Now I am reading the book.
Another very entertaining reveiw!
This is the only book that I’ve read this summer that I couldn’t finish. I wanted to like ASTBS but I just had issues with it.
By the way, I did like your review even though my opinion of ASTBS differed!
awww you two are too sweet 😉
LOL and erika I thought of you as I wrote it cuz I saw you didn’t likey. Try reading it again… hee
I think that is two recent books that I liked you didn’t ASTBS and The Perfect Rake (I think that was the title). I *think* we both didn’t like Master of Pleasure but I could be wrong (I know I didn’t like it but not sure about you 😉 ).
God I need a memory…
Whee! Review. 🙂
I do believe that all 3 books you mentioned were on my take to the ubs list.
And I thought the heroine in ASTBS was a bit too layered in mystery. I like to have some insight into a main characters motivations.
