    About this audiobook

    Reasons to quit London:

    1. It's not the Highlands.

    2. It will never be the Highlands.

    3. It's full of the bloody English.

    When his wild spitfire of a sister makes a scene by drawing a claymore in Hyde Park, Highlander Robert Waters knows something must be done. To forestall the inevitable scandal, he hires widowed Prudence Whittaker to teach his sister how to be a lady-never expecting to find unbridled passion beneath the clever Englishwoman's prim exterior.

    Mrs. Whittaker is a fraud. Born Lady Prudence Farthington, daughter of the ruined earl of Lynwood, she's never even been married. In order to make her way in the world, she has to rely on her wits and a web of lies . . . lies a sexy Highlander is all too close to unraveling.

    He swears he will possess her; she vows he will do nothing of the sort. Yet as passions heat, Prudence comes to realize the illicit pleasure that can be had in going toe-to-toe with a Scot.

    Contains mature themes.

      Sparkling with wit, humour and romance!Reasons to stay in London!1. Sure it's not the Highlands 2. It's never likely to be the Highlands 3. Amongst those bloody English-- is one Prudence Whittaker.Robert Waters and his brother Alexander were sent from the Highlands to London by their English mother to ensure that their wild, reckless sister Mary Elizabeth find a husband. All Robert wants to do is have her settled and hie back to his beloved highlands.His sister, Mary Elizabeth is an unstoppable force of nature, a whirlwind of lightness and impulsiveness amongst the young misses of the ton. With a big heart, she is unexpected and constantly being led astray by her rash inclinations. Drawing a Claymore in Hyde Park might seem unremarkable to Mary Elizabeth, but to the 'hoity footy' high steppers of the ton it's tantamount to social demise. She needs lessons in expected behaviour and she needs them now. Else Robert might never be able to flee back to his beloved Highlands.Widowed Prudence Whittaker (really Lady Prudence Farthington) seems like the answer to his problem. Prudence is a woman of secrets, hiding out in plain sight as a 'companion'. This intelligent Englishwoman just might prove to stay Robert from his course to quit London as soon as possible. Indeed his plans to flee just might wither and die.I really enjoyed 'How to Wed a Warrior', more so than 'How to Seduce a Scot'. Prudence is a wonderfully strong and resilient heroine who can give as good as she gets. Robert Waters is a delightful highlander rogue with a keen heart and a discerning eye. Mary Elizabeth, as in the previous novel, is pure gold, a treasure. I look forward to her story.A NetGalley ARC

      This had some slow spots, but was generally fine. The hero was a bit full of himself for my taste, but either he settled some as the book went along or I just got used to it. Entertaining overall, but not especially memorable for me.
    • 4/5
      It was so much better than the first one, a vast improvement for sure. I really enjoyed it, the secondary characters also made it worthwhile. Robbie was Charming and just the kind of person any heroine would fall in love with. I cant wait to read about Mary Elizabeth and the duke, that is definitely one to see.
