A Loving Scoundrel (Malory-Anderson Family, #7) By Johanna Lindsey

A Loving Scoundrel by Johanna Lindsey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Since forever I've been looking forward to Jeremy's story, actually since his introduction in book 1, because it's known he's not the first bastard in the family, but he was one with unusual background and was suddenly found and was instantly adopted by the family. ^^

The whole book was entertaining and intriguing, and what I liked most about it, that it didn't focus solely on the mystery part of the book, regarding Danny's past or about just the romance between the main couple, but instead it also shined on the complete book as a whole, how a girl from the slums starts working in a higher class bachelor residence, how she starts to adjust and adapt, how the couple get to know each other, how she meets people, how she goes places and learn things for the first time, and how Jeremy slowly understands how much she means to him.

The main couple were cute together, and it figures that Jeremy's story would start the same way hi father's story did, with a cross-dressing women XD

- I liked how Danny interacted with all the characters, Jeremy, her friends from the streets, the Mallory's, her household coworkers, she was vastly entertaining, and how everyone could take to her instantly.

- The trick they played on that witch of a girl was a bit ugly but seriously she brought it on herself, and as I said she was a witch, like seriously who goes telling people they got pregnant just to get a guy, and then go pinching rivals out of the way?!

- I liked how her place in the house was settled after she succumbed to his seductions, and that didn't affect how the staff treated her.

- Loved the rat scene, it was hilarious, and then how he went and got her more pets XD

- I liked the last part the most, the reunion scene, but what I liked most was how she always hid behind Jeremy when she was scared or shy or embarrassed, it seemed both his chest and back were good hiding places. Oh yeah forgot to include where the uncles interrupted the confession moment, that was seriously funny considering it was a small scene, but since it included the usual duo of James and Tony then I guess it was to be expected.

Overall, *thumps up*
