The Lord Pretender by Sawyer North @MrDarcyExplains @entangledpub


Step 1: Come up with the perfect plan

Emma Watts was almost the perfect lady. That is, until her father joined the notorious Prometheans’ Club and gambled away all her prospects. Now, cast out of society, and with only her name intact, Emma will do what a young, intelligent lady can when she is thwarted by circumstance. Take revenge, of course. And the gentlemen's club, including its members, is first on the list…

Step 2: Find your target
Simon, the Earl of Blackburn, the most prominent member of the Prometheans, knows firsthand how dangerous a wily woman with an agenda can be; after all, his mother is the most devious of the species. But a string of chance encounters with a charming and breathtaking stranger leads him to reconsider. 
 
Step 3: Then watch your plans go beautifully to pieces
Upon learning that a mystery woman is digging up dirt on his club brothers, Simon volunteers to uncover her identity and ruin her by any means necessary.  But all it takes is a nasty thunderstorm to completely switch Emma's and Simon's lives. Their perspectives aren’t the only things that change though, when they wake up in each other’s bodies…



My Review


My rating: 4 of 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Not at all what I was expecting. There were plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and the body-swapping certainly added to that. FYI there is only kissing in this book, no spice. Not what I usually read but did make for a great palette cleanser.

Following the death of her father, Emma Watts and her family have lost their place in society. She places the blame squarely on the Prometheans’ Club. Whose ranks her father joined before gambling away the family fortune. Her plan is to take the club down.

Simon, the Earl of Blackburn, is a respected member of the Prometheans. When the club discovers that someone is digging for embarrassing information on the club members, Simon volunteers to uncover the woman's identity.

Simon and Emma bump into each other a few times, Both are taken with one another. He sets up a plan to catch the woman digging into the club and chases after Emma when he discovers it's her. A thunderstorm hits and as they begin to argue light strikes changing their lives forever.

Thanks so much to the author, Entangled and NetGalley for this ARC to review.
