(2025)(A book in the Revenge of the Wallflowers series)
A novel by Louisa Cornell
She Fears the Ultimate Revenge
When Lady Alice Lister's first season ended in gunfire, she expected
to be the subject of some rather unkind remarks. And sideways glances.
And perhaps a gentleman or two tripping in their haste to flee her
presence.
When her second season ended in the sort of misery that could only be
created by the cruel efforts of three wealthy titled young men
determined to make her the most ridiculed and least sought-after dance
partner in the history of London society, the thought of revenge
certainly came to mind, though the how and where were less certain
when she dissolved into tears at the very thought of ever returning to
London again.
However, when her third season offered her the opportunity to gain her
independence and a small fortune simply by her attendance at that
season's most important events, she could not refuse.And should the opportunity
to finally ensure those who made her first two seasons a misery receive
their comeuppance it behooves a lady to give careful and sober thought
to the idea of revenge. After all, one must have something to occupy one’s time
between dress fittings, carriage rides, and balls at Almack’s.
To ensure success, she needed an accomplice. However, under no
circumstances did she plan to choose an accomplice to whom she was
even mildly attracted, especially not a criminally handsome, kind,
brilliant horticulturist with big blue eyes, and...where were we?
Sinjin Perriton has survived years of dealing with London society by
not venturing forth into the mad whirl of the ton.
His horticultural studies and his love of reading tales of daring have
kept him safe, happy, and at home in his vast orangery. His shy nature
has made his years' long correspondence with Lady Alice Lister the
closest and most precious friendship of his life. When she asks his
help in her plotted vengeance, he readily agrees, too readily. Close
proximity to a lady bent on the destruction of those who have wronged
her might well be the death of him. Revenge comes at a price that
Sinjin is willing to pay, but will the final cost be his heart?
Pre-order today and find out if Alice is willing to exact revenge even
if she loses a chance at the ultimate revenge—her very own happily
ever after.
