A rich and sensuous story that carries the reader from the dark and dangerous underworld to the gleaming halls of society, The Notorious Scoundrel is another sizzling and edgy read from the extraordinarily talented Alexandra Benedict. The second book in her Hawkins Brothers series featuring a family of former pirates navigating their way through London society, The Notorious Scoundrel is a novel reminiscent of the early works of Stephanie Laurens—a tale brimming with sensuality and intrigue, featuring a darkly mysterious hero and red hot love scenes, that fans of Suzanne Enoch and Cathy Maxwell will absolutely adore.
