Description
An illegitimate royal with a rakish reputation finds that responsibility can come with tantalizing benefits in this Regency romance.
Some men are born into scandal. Others pursue it with a passion. Griffin Steele, secret son of the Duke of Cumberland, is guilty on both counts. Yet somehow London's most notorious scoundrel has been saddled with an abandoned baby boy—and with the unflappable, intriguing spinster summoned to nurse him . . .
Justine Brightmore may be a viscount's niece, but she's also a spy's daughter, determined to safeguard the infant when his suspected royal parentage makes him a target. Yet how will she protect herself from the rakish Griffin? Marriage might shield her reputation, but it can only imperil her heart, especially with a groom intent on delicious seduction . . .

Kelly follows Secrets for Seducing a Royal Bodyguard with a strong Regency romance undermined by a weak premise. Griffin Steele, rakish by-blow of the Duke of Cumberland, and spinster Justine Brightmore are very finely developed characters brought together by a highly implausible event: a baby boy is dropped on the doorstep of the whorehouse Steele owns, with a message begging Steele to keep the infant safe. It’s a tough assignment. As luck would have it, one of the “girls” can fill in as wet nurse, but there is still need of a nanny. Enter Justine, who fears no damage to her reputation; but when rumors spread about the unmarried woman living under Steele’s roof, the suddenly honor-bound lord insists on marrying her. The diverting interactions between the two all but eclipse the limp suspense of the mystery babe. A bonus prequel novella provides some backstory about Griffin’s mother, but the novel stands well without it.
