BOOK REVIEW- LADY HARRIET'S UNUSUAL REWARD


Lady Harriet Weatherby is at the end of her tether. Her brother, the Earl of Oldbeck is running amok. That would not normally be her problem, but the ton consider the earl to be an imbecile. Since her father died, he has had no one to guide him and he will no longer listen to Harriet. And now that Mary the kitchen maid is carrying his child, Harriet sees no other option but to marry. And there is only one man for the job. 

Two years ago Lord Stephen Charville, a widower and second son of a duke, promised Lady Harriet that he would do her any favor she asked him as thanks for saving his daughter's life when she nearly drowned. He did not expect her to turn up at his townhouse and ask him to marry her and set an example to her brother. Lord Stephen offers without marriage to help the earl to learn the ways of the world, Harriet is still determined that the only way to do the job properly is for them to marry but she agrees to do it Lord Stephen’s way. 


I enjoyed this story and the unusual challenges that Harriet was presented with. Stephen was charming, in his compassion towards William and he got on board wanting to help him and Harriet fairly early.   Even  Harriet's brother William and his lady love Mary, were something different to read about.  The friendship of Harriet and Stephen as they try to keep the young lovers out of trouble was fun to read and I smiled more than once while reading this story. 

The epilogue was done really well at the end too. 
The only thing I feel needs to be mentioned is that there is Sexual Content and Sexual Language in this book.
