Juliana comes into her own!
A Counterfeit Courtesan (The Shelly Sisters #3) by Jess Michaels
Oh my, the this third Shelley sister, Juliana (the quiet fixer of the family) might just end up being the most scandalous of the lot. As they say "watch out for the quiet ones!"
And the Shelley cohort and Ellis 'Hansome" Maitland had reason to beware because when Juliana fixed her sights on something nothing would get in her way--all accomplished in a quietly determined manner.
Comprehending that she would never marry now that she was disfigured (a scar on her face), and with the realization that her father had decided to selfishly retain her into spinsterhood, as his secretary and hostess, at his beck and call for as long as he lived.
Feeling berefit, seperated from the closeness she and her triplet sisters once shared, lost even, Juliana decides to take the opportunity to experience life at an exclusive club renowned for being a meeting place for illicit relations.
Needless to say, whom does she run into, but Ellis. Provoking him almost beyond endurance Juliana sets them both on a path of passion and danger.
Danger because Winston Leonard is stalking her family to find the lost emerald and dangerous because Juliana's response to Eliot, was well and truly reciprocated, making the situation more volatile than they both imagined.
The bad boy with the true heart, the quiet woman with hidden depths, this was always destined to be a lethal combination!
The road to a HEA is strewn with boulders, making for a tantalizing and exciting read.
