About this ebook
After orchestrating a scandalous high-society ruse, Lady Jeannette Brantford is banished from her family’s estate in England and sent to live with boring elderly cousins in the Irish countryside. But Jeannette’s exile is surprisingly eventful. En route to her dreaded destination, she encounters Darragh O’Brien, a devilishly handsome architect who transforms Jeannette’s punishment into a delicious whirlwind of wits, words, and undeniable passion.
Although no less than a duke could satisfy a lady of her status, Jeannette is unable to extinguish the burning desire she has for Darragh’s smoldering looks and sizzling kisses. Little does she know, her dashing Irishman is no commoner. He’s the eleventh Earl of Mulholland–and he’s thoroughly enjoying the irresistible game of hard-to-get. But before he reveals his true identity, a little temptation and trickery are in order to teach his fair lady a lesson or two about love.

Reviews for The Wife Trap
49 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Lady Jeannette Brantford is in disgrace because of the deception that she persuaded her twin sister into participating in. Her sister, Violet, is now the Duchess of Raebern, the position that Jeannette was supposed to have had, but she didn't want to marry the Duke. Now she's been banished to Ireland to live with rustic cousins.Jeannette, before even reaching her destination, meets Darragh O'Brien, a devilishly handsome man who thinks she's spoiled and self-centered. The interaction between these two characters and their antics is entertaining and thoroughly amusing.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Second book in the Trap Trilogy starring the twin sister, Lady Jeannette Brantford. It is entertaining watching her grow up.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Hilarious Regency Romance. High in the instep, Lady Jeannette is sent to her cousins' Irish estate, where she meets Darragh on the highway. A Lord and an architect, Darragh neglects to mention his lineage when he hauls Jeannette out of the coach mire...nor does he let he know when he's working on her cousin's house. They just keep trying to one-up each other..she to try to be the lady that she was, and him to bring her down a few pegs.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is a delightful story with lots of ironies and 'be careful what you say...'s. I laughed out loud and marveled at the author's ability to keep the plot moving forward.
This is the 2nd book narrated by Bianca Amato, and as with the first (The Wedding Trap, also by Ms. Warren), she did a marvelous job keeping the characters' voiced differently AND consistent between the books (NOT a common feat!). I would recommend this series to anyone wanting a fun, moving tale. I am looking forward to finding the last in this trilogy to read (which is actually the first book in the series!) from the public library.
