I consider myself a big Marriage Game's admirer and if you haven't had the opportunity (or the to impulse) to read the first two romances of the series, The Seduction of Lady Phoebe and The Secret Life of Miss Anna Marsh, I heartily recommend them!

Well, The Temptation of Lady Serena outdid the precedents; it's amazing!

Robert is one of the most realistic and interesting characters I've ever read about but, I must say, I don't know why, the men in this series are always better than the women (with “better” I mean the final result and the general idea of the character and not a specific aspect); the female characters, with the story development, become “too perfect”, this is clearer with Anna Marsh and less evident with Lady Serena, who I appreciated a lot.

I reeeally liked The Seduction of Lady Phoebe! I must say, I deeply enjoyed Ella Quinn style, it's fluid, engaging, romantic and passionate, clear and detailed but never boring ; the story is amazing too, the characters are funny and charming, I liked this caring and relaxed mood between Phoebe's relatives and I most definitely love Marcus!

Marcus Finley is the Marquis of Dunwood's second son. He desperately falls in love with Lady Phoebe Stanhope at first sight, when he's a stormy and a bit problematic young man of twenty years old.

Because of his bad behaviour, his father has banished him to the West Indies but, before he leaves, Marcus has to declare his love to Phoebe so he can marry the girl and bring her with him to start a new life; unfortunately when he decides to propose he is drunk. Their encounter is catastrophic and Phoebe, profoundly shocked and insulted by his deplorable actions, promises herself that she will despise him forever.

What Marcus doesn't know is that the fifteen-year-old Phoebe, the only person who has never judged him, secretly returned his feeling, which makes his conduct even more painful.
