The Knave of Hearts by Elizabeth Boyle

The Knave of Hearts by Elizabeth Boyle - 378 pages
Rhymes with Love series

Lavinia Tempest's introduction to society did not go well.  Now she and her twin sister are being blackballed by society.  So she accepts an offer from Tuck Rowland to make her a "diamond" of society.  She doesn't know that Tuck has made a bet that he can turn the sisters into the most sought after ladies of the season . . .

This is the sequel to The Viscount Who Lived Down the Lane.  I think I enjoyed this book more than the previous one.  While both were humorous, I found this one to be more engaging and funny.  I'm definitely going to find more books by this author to read.

The Viscount Who Lived Down the Lane by Elizabeth Boyle

The Viscount Who Lived Down the Lane by Elizabeth Boyle - 374 pages
Rhymes with Love series

Louisa Tempest knows that the attempt by her and her sister of a season in London is going to be a failure.  It's off to an even worse start than she imagined when her incorrigible cat causes mayhem by running into the neighboring house when they first arrive.  Viscount Wakefield is not amused by the cat and threatens to thrown Louisa out of the house.  However, that first introduction only gets worse as Louise continues to annoy Wakefield out of his solitude and foul temper.

This was an amusing book to read.  It was fun to see how many ways the two main characters could annoy each other while still falling in love.  I'm interested in reading the next book in the series featuring Louisa's sister.
