Description

In the third novel in Maya Rodale's charming Wallflower series, London's Least Likely to Be Caught in a Compromising Position finds temptation in a devilishly handsome stranger . . .

Miss Prudence Merryweather Payton has a secret.

Everyone knows that she's the only graduate from her finishing school to remain unwed on her fourth season—but no one knows why. With her romantic illusions shattered after being compromised against her will, Prudence accepts a proposal even though her betrothed is not exactly a knight in shining armor. When he cowardly pushes her out of their stagecoach to divert a highwayman, she vows never to trust another man again.

John Roark, Viscount Castleton, is nobody's hero.

He's a blue-eyed charmer with a mysterious past and ambitious plans for his future—that do not include a wife. When he finds himself stranded at a country inn with a captivating young woman, a delicate dance of seduction ensues. He knows he should keep his distance. And he definitely shouldn't start falling in love with her.

When Prudence's dark past comes back to haunt her, John must protect her—even though he risks revealing his own secrets that could destroy his future.

        September 1, 2014
        Rodale’s third Bad Boys and Wallflowers Regency (after Wallflower Gone Wild) includes a sensitive portrayal of the emotional effects of sexual assault. Prudence Payton, London’s Least Likely to be Caught in a Compromising Position, has embraced her wallflower status after being assaulted during her first season. During a rainy journey to her finishing school reunion, she finds herself alone in an inn with John Roark, Lord Castleton. John, who gambles so he can earn enough money to find security for himself and his family, is on a winning streak. He’s fascinated by the skittish Prudence and decides to help her regain her confidence. When the man who attacked Prudence shows up at the same inn, both Prudence and John find their secrets in danger of exposure. The frequent jumps both forward and back in time accurately portray Prudence’s mental state but may be jarring to those used to a more linear style, and there is a significant amount of wish-fulfillment in the final third of the novel.
