Boring
This was my first Amanda Quick book and i found it to be horrible. Emily is a smart female, i'll give her that, but she's so naive and caught up in her love for Simon, who isn't all that he's cracked up to be, and she just drives me crazy! She keeps going on and on about this higher spiritual love and i just feel like cracking some skulls. Despite how i thought this book would turn out and how it did, i'm willing to give Quick another chance, i hear some of her other books r great. This book however u won't ever catch me rereading. But if u want to try it go ahead don't let me stop u.

Anne of Green Gables meets a BAD boy
Emily Faringdon has resigned herself to a loveless life in the country making investments for the women in her literary society and writing passionate letters to her mysterious penpal S.A. Treherne. But when Treherne shows up and turns out to be the mysterious Simon Agustus Treherne, Earl of Blade and intent on destroying her family through her, Emily throws herself headlong into his life. But this dangerous dragon has a grudge, and one not easily forgotten, even for love.

My mother read this book first and encouraged me to pick it up, describing it as Anne of Green Gables meets Russell Crowe. I couldn't resist!! And was I ever glad I read it. Although Scandal is an older book, the romance absolutely sizzles as romantic Emily slowly rips down all of Simon's angry defenses and succumbs to his sensual charms. They fall in love with each other while the reader falls in love with them. I definitely give it an enthusiastic thumbs up.

Scandal
This is actually one of my favorites by Amanda Quick. It is witty and funny. I thought the manipulative and powerful character of Simon made a perfect contrast to the sweet, seeming naivety of Emily. I found both characters likeable and I found this to be a thoroughly enjoyable read. I've read it three times now and I've loved it each time.
