Sophie Irwin delivers another fantastic story with A Lady's Guide to Scandal. Though, I was a bit disappointed that it was not a true sequel to A Lady's Guide to Fortune Hunting, but a new book entirely.

However, that doesn't change the fact that this novel was a great addition to the Lady's Guides. I adored Margaret. She had a lot of spunk and her story with Lady Melville. I found myself more intrigued with Margaret than Eliza with her two beaus.

But alas, this is Eliza's story so I should make nice about it. I loved Melville. He was enchanting and rogueish in the best of ways. Somerset was a letdown. I don't know why Eliza ever wanted anything to do with him. He was boring and simpy, even while being an overbearing lout.

The story was a bit overlong and tended to run on a bit in the middle, but I enjoyed it for the lovely Regency that it is. A Lady's Guide to Scandal is a solid 4 stars for me.
