5.0

How can I start?
This book is GREAT!! >.<. I must regret cause I’m never read it from long2 time ago, Historical Romance is still new for me, and I’m glad I read Lisa Kleypas book first ^^. Thank you for many people that had recommended this book for me. I feel skeptical first when I want read this , afraid I have hope to much and then this book will be disappoint me. But I’m wrong!! Yes I love this book, lol

After the event in It Happened One Autumn, Sebastian, Lord St Vincent got surprising news from Evangeline Jenner, the shy one from Wallflowers. She want him to become her husband, cause Evie want to get out from her mother’s family and she knows that St Vincent is in bad & poor life and need rich girl to close his financial problem. So, this proposal seem to be benefit for both of them. Until Sebastian realized, he has an unusual feeling for Evie…

Evie know that Sebastian is womanizer, scoundrel, rake to the core and Vanity, thy name is Sebastian, lol ^^. But she seem surprised when see Sebastian look interesting to manage her father’s casino. The lazy, flamboyan Sebastian became change to be responsible man, but she still don’t believe that he will left his old habit, so she want Sebastian to celibate and if he success, he can make love to Evie ^^. Of course this is tortured Sebastian a lot, but he promise that he will fulfill it, after Sebastian had been shooting when he protect Evie, and they finally realized their feeling to each other…

Sebastian remind me of Bones from Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost and Roarke from In Death Series by J.D.Robb. They are womanizer, charming, flamboyan, drop dead gorgeous, tall, dark and deadly, and like a sinner or fallen angel (with the difference, Sebastian is poor, Bones is vampire and Roarke is mega billionaire, lol), but when they meet their woman, they will falling in love from head to toe ^^ to them. Womanizer is not my fave hero, but they are exception ^^. Some people says that Sebastian change is to drastic, that he falling in love to Evie too fast , but I don’t think so. It feel natural to see his change, cause deep inside I know maybe Sebastian want to change but he don’t have a precise moment and suitable woman, until Evie come to him. And it nice to see how much Evie change. Oh yes she still shy and stutter but she become a though woman, an equal partner of life for Sebastian.

Great BOOK!! And I don’t hesitate to give 5 stars (and I want someone seduce me in billiard room, ^^)
