A Little Bit Wicked by Robyn DeHartMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
At 24 Vivian fell in love. At a party she surprised her lover (in the dark) with a kiss. Only it wasn't him, but someone else. Marcus never forgot the surprise kiss. And Vivian's lover broke her heart. After this, she vowed to never fall in love again.
Over the next decade, she built herself a reputation as a "fixer" of sorts. She helps young women restore/rebuild their image/reputations. Marcus, the second son of an earl, went on adventures, leading tours to different places on different continents. He finds himself the earl after his brother's death. He is also now responsible for his younger sister Clarissa. Clarissa finds herself the subject of gossip after she is seen talking to the owner of a gaming hell. Enter Vivian.
Very nicely paced with a gradual friendship gradually blossoming into more. I also liked the age gap; Vivian is about 7 years older than Marcus. And when it came to the blackmailer, Vivian handled it on her own, in her own way. Nicely done.
