#1 New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Laurens and rising star Alison DeLaine bring you two tales of passionate temptation…and decorum overthrown.  

A Comfortable Wife 

Miss Antonia Mannering has made plans that include her long-ago friend Lord Philip Ruthven. She knows Philip is popular with the ladies, but he has never married. Might he now be ready for a wife? If she could only prove that she could run his home, not disgrace him in Society and be a comfortable wife, surely he would propose to her. But when love enters the equation, Antonia might be getting more than she bargained for…. 

A Lady by Day 

Recovering from scandal, Josephine, Countess of Mareck, has secured a second chance at respectability. And she certainly will not risk it for Sir Noah Rutledge, who's returned to London from the Mediterranean to secure a new business venture. But when Noah confronts Josephine and puts her secrets at risk, he stirs a most unexpected desire. With the ton watching closely, she must be careful not to fall for an unsuitable man. Unless love proves stronger than Society….

This was a pretty good two-fer. I tend to read just about anything new by Stephanie Laurens, and while I hadn't been interested in the Lester Trilogy by her (I got into her when I discovered the Cynsters and haven't really felt tempted by the Lesters), the description for this book and the sample convinced me to get it. And I'm so glad I did!

There's no need to read the Lester trilogy in order to understand this story, although some of the characters are referenced and it did make me a bit curious. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Philip and Antonia; it was refreshing to read about a strong female character who doesn't have the training to just swan through the ton and who realizes it. I also liked that she was prepping herself to be a certain kind of wife, only to realize that love can't be controlled; seeing her observations about how couples within the ton acted towards each other was also fascinating. And I totally fell head over heels for Phillip who was a thoroughly alpha hero, although not quite as tyrannical as the Cynster set.

The best part about this book was that it was immediately followed by another! Alison DeLaine was a new author for me but this was a great introduction to her work. Sir Noah Rutledge is absolutely delicious, Josephine is both strong and interesting with her hidden sense of adventure and her checkered past... I love that her main flaw is that she's not as flawed as she thinks she is. Does that make sense? She's doing so much to cover up her past that she's not really living in the present until Noah comes along and breaks into her senses.
