A rivalry erupts into passion in Regency London. Miss Gillian Harris’s trouble begins when she makes a scandalous appearance at a public masquerade ball. The trustee of her fortune, the wealthy and powerful Marquis of Landover, declares her brother, Sir Avery, an irresponsible guardian, and moves the siblings into his own fashionable London mansion.

Chafing at the Marquis’ careful monitoring of her conduct, the audacious Gillian devises an inspired plan: She will distract her watchful protector by presenting him with suitable candidates for courtship. But, despite her best efforts at matchmaking, the fires of jealousy begin to grow and Gillian fears she might succumb to a much more scandalous temptation: seducing the handsome Marquis herself...

I think this autor has some history with child-abuse. There was another story, I think called "dangerous games", where the behavior of a abused child was described really detailed so that I had to stop to listen because it was so disgusting. And also in this story the male part is calling the female part always "child" and she acts also really childish while he acts like a father. This is no healthy relationship, this is really toxic. The speaker ist good.

Toxic relationship

The story is supposed to be a romance, except it is toxic from beginning to end. Male love interest keeps calling the (admittedly very childish and bratty) female protagonist "my child" again and again, also treats her as such, while he is obviously grooming her. He is verbally abusive with the constant threat of violence towards her, until we get full blown S.A. that is supposed to be romantic. She gets so confused that she basically apologizes for all the abuse thrown at her while stockhom-syndroming for the abuser.
I can't even with this drivel.
I recommend to not even touch this with a barge-pole. Not to mention that the entire story is very trite and boring.

The reader is the only good thing about the entire book.

Awful
