The Seduction of Lady X

Written by Julia London

Narrated by Justine Eyre

The surprising news that dashing steward Harrison Tolly, illegitimate son of the Earl of Ashwood, is the rightful heir to his father's estate comes at a most inopportune time. With a wedding on the horizon and a baby on the way, a new life of privilege and prestige would be a blessing but for one problem: his heart belongs to another woman.

Harrison keeps his desires for his employer's wife, Lady Olivia Carey, so hidden that even she does not know of his devotion. Her callous husband, Marquis Carey, went into a rampage after Olivia's troublesome younger sister returned from her tour of Spain pregnant, and Harrison impulsively stepped in to save the entire family from scandal. Now, like Olivia, he is trapped in a loveless arrangement. When a tragic accident claims the marquis's life soon thereafter, can Harrison seize his chance and cast aside one sister for another? Or will doing so expose the Carey family's darkest secret-and ruin his only chance to win Olivia's heart?

Reviews for The Seduction of Lady X

[reesa00 · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I am not a fan of romance novels where one party is married to another or a party is engaged to another. This book had both of these; the only reason I picked it up was because it was part of the Hadley Green series. It didn't do much to progress the series (most of the book is away from Hadley Green). I couldn't get over the heroines marriage (even though her husband was horrible) and the hero and heroine could never have an open relationship until the very end of the book. I was ready for this book to end and skimmed a good portion of it.
