Cold-Hearted Rake

RECOMMENDED: Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas is $1.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and, the other deals include more romances and some historical fiction. Check them out! Elyse reviewed this one and gave it an A:
Cold-Hearted Rake has the elements that make me love Kleypas so much as a writer: female friendships, a hero who is a rake but somehow also emotionally aware, a setting that’s fully developed and not a backdrop, and scalding sexual tension.
A twist of fate…
Devon Ravenel, London’s most wickedly charming rake, has just inherited an earldom. But his powerful new rank in society comes with unwanted responsibilities . . . and more than a few surprises. His estate is saddled with debt, and the late earl’s three innocent sisters are still occupying the house . . . along with Kathleen, Lady Trenear, a beautiful young widow whose sharp wit and determination are a match for Devon’s own.
A clash of wills…
Kathleen knows better than to trust a ruthless scoundrel like Devon. But the fiery attraction between them is impossible to deny—and from the first moment Devon holds her in his arms, he vows to do whatever it takes to possess her. As Kathleen finds herself yielding to his skillfully erotic seduction, only one question remains:
Can she keep from surrendering her heart to the most dangerous man she’s ever known?

Playing the Part by Robin Covington is 99c! Covington writes some rather sexy contemporaries, if that happens to be your catnip. Readers definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a hot, fun, and quick read. However, some readers didn’t warm up to the hero until the very end of the book.
A sexy category romance from Entangled’s Brazen imprint…
The harder they play…the harder they fall.
After publicly self-destructing over a heartbreak a year ago, bestselling romance writer Piper James is now making nice with her publisher by agreeing to teach Hollywood’s favorite action star how to act like he’s in love. Only playboy Mick Blackwell has no clue what love looks like.
When a seductive heat ignites between Piper and Mick, she jumps at the chance for a bit of fun between the sheets, but with two stipulations: she’s kept out of the public eye and things end when she returns to New York. Only Mick keeps changing the rules on her. Tempted by America’s favorite bad boy, Piper is wondering how far she’s willing to bend…

How to Marry a Royal Highlander by Vanessa Kelly is 99c! This is part of the Renegade Royals series; you can grab all 4 books in the series for less than $8! Readers love the playful banter between the hero and heroine, and the road trip element. However, others recommend reading the previous books in the series before this one.
Illegitimate yet thoroughly irresistible, the Renegade Royals are leaving behind their careers as daring spies for the greatest adventure of all…
At sixteen, Alasdair Gilbride, heir to a Scottish earldom, fled the Highlands and an arranged betrothal. Ten years later, Alasdair must travel home to face his responsibilities. It’s a task that would be much easier without the distracting presence of the most enticing woman he’s ever met…
After one escapade too many, Eden Whitney has been snubbed by the ton. The solution: rusticating in the Scottish wilderness, miles from all temptation. Except, of course, for brawny, charming Alasdair. The man is so exasperating she’d likely kill him before they reach the border—if someone else weren’t trying to do just that. Now Eden and Alasdair are plunging into a scandalous affair with his life and her reputation at stake—and their hearts already irreparably lost…

The Duke of Ice by Darcy Burke is 99c! This is the seventh book in the Untouchables series and features a second chance romance. Some readers didn’t care for the hero in this one, while others recommend this one for a more emotional historical romance.
Everyone Nicholas Bateman ever loved has died. Except Violet Caulfield, which must mean he never loved her. Nine years after she threw him over to marry a viscount, Nick is a widowed duke who prefers isolation. When a friend convinces him to leave his lair of self-imposed solitude, he considers taking another wife, provided she agrees to his terms: no emotional attachment of any kind.
Now widowed, Lady Violet Pendleton hopes for a second chance with the man she’s always loved. But she isn’t prepared for the desolation in his soul or the animosity he still bears toward her. Despite those obstacles, it’s clear their passion hasn’t dimmed. However, the heat between them isn’t enough to melt the Duke of Ice, and this time Violet may find herself the jilted party. Can love, once so tragically lost, finally be found?

“Any Old Diamonds” by KJ Charles is $1.29 on Kindle! I know several people spoke highly of it in the Whatcha Readin’ post.
I spent some time in a mental health facility over the holidays (I missed Thanksgiving AND Christmas) and the book selection wasn’t great, but there was a very beat up copy of Cold Hearted Rake. I read that and Mansfield Park. Having Lisa’s and Jane’s company made things easier.
EJ, I hope you’re feeling much, much better now.
I’m doing a lot better now, thanks! I have new meds (and was taken off of a really terrible old med). I’m home and working and reading 🙂
