An outrageous free spirit meets her match in an introvert with a secret leather business
Raised as a free spirit, Beth Jenkins refuses to submit to the Ton’s rigid rules. She has fun where she wants, with whomever she wishes. By day, she excels at matching people’s needs with those who can provide them. That talent and her cousin, Lady Althea Egerton, are the only barriers standing between her and complete ostracization.
When her cousin requires an investor for her business, Beth gains them an entrée to a house party hosted by a wealthy earl, where she encounters Robert Orford. The intimate leather apparel and toys of pleasure he creates entice Beth as much as the man himself, and she is determined to pursue him.
As the stocky second son of an earl, Robert was bullied as a child and hates being in the public eye. Beth’s behavior is far too outrageous for his tastes. If only she didn’t have the curvy figure he most admires, perfect for testing his leather pieces.
But Beth refuses to be tamed, so if she can’t convince him to care less about society’s disapproval, they could be forced to walk away from the perfect partnership for leather and love.
My ReviewBeth's Behavior by Maggie Sims
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I really liked Beth when I first met her in Sophia's Schooling. I did wonder though what kind of man would catch her attention when she's always been such a free spirit about who she sleeps with. And in comes Robert in Althea's Awakening but I didn't have any idea how spicy he would be.
Beth was raised as a free spirit and to never submit to the Ton's rigid rules. She has fun with whomever and whenever she wants. By day she helps those who seek assistance through her network of contacts. Her talent and cousin, Lady Althea are what stand between her and being ostracized.
While attending a party with her cousin she meets Robert Orford. He created intimate leather apparel and toys of pleasure that entice Beth as much as Robert himself.
As the second son of an earl, he was bullied in school and now prefers to stay out of the public eye. Beth is too outrageous for him but her curvy figure tempts him and is perfect for testing his leather pieces.
He fears Beth cannot be tamed and she can't seem to convince him to not worry about what the Ton may think. Will they be able to form the perfect partnership of leather and love?
