Devil in Winter
Devil in Winter | Lisa Kleypas
"I'm Sebastian, Lord St. Vincent. I can't be celibate. Everyone knows that."Desperate to escape her scheming relatives, Evangeline Jenner has sought the help of the most infamous scoundrel in London.A marriage of convenience is the only solution.No one would have ever paired the shy, stammering wallflower with the sinfully handsome viscount. It quickly becomes clear, however, that Evie is a woman of hidden strength and Sebastian desires her more than any woman he's ever known.Determined to win her husband's elusive heart, Evie dares to strike a bargain with the devil: If Sebastian can stay celibate for three months, she will allow him into her bed.When Evie is threatened by a vengeful enemy from the past, Sebastian vows to do whatever it takes to protect his wife . . . even at the expense of his own life.Together they will defy their perilous fate, for the sake of all-consuming love."

Another book from my TBR list and I for one am happy to check this off.

I wish there was more of Sebastian moments. I feel that really could have helped his character's arc from rake to husband of convenience to caring and loving at the end because while I enjoyed the book, I just didn't really fall for it but I had moments were maybe with a little more something, I could have.

A much better outing for me than Dreaming of You, even if Ivo Jenner bites it. I don't have the love for Kleypas that some do, but I'm glad to have not disliked another one from her.

I love Lisa Kleypas.

After the ending of the second Wallflowers book, I HAD to see what was in store for Evie and Sebastian - a sweet virgin and a notorious rake.

Any guesses? 😄

Lisa Kleypas is one of my favorite romance authors. I usually read her books in order but I decided to read book 3 of The Wallflower series after a fave podcast I Iisten kept talking about St. Vincent Day.

The hero in this book, Sebastian St. Vincent, did sound like a pretty yummy guy. His character change after meeting Evie was quite sweet. Was it a swoon worthy story? No, but it was enjoyable.

I‘ve read the first two books in this series, but I‘m out. As much as I love the heroines, I cannot bring myself to read Sebastian‘s “redemption” story. (SPOILER) He kidnapped a woman with the intent to force her into marriage while repeatedly threatening to rape her so her fiancée will no longer want her! Because he‘s broke and needs her fortune! WHAT. Oh, but he assures her he‘ll make sure she ENJOYS THE RAPE. Because he‘s so good at sex.???

Owlizabeth NOTHING will make me drop a book faster than turning a RAPIST into a romantic hero. Call me a misandrist, but just kill him gruesomely and find someone WHO DOES NOT THINK THAT RAPE IS OKAY. 4y
That-Bookish-Hiker Ugh I hate those kind of story lines. Rape, sexual assault or sex trafficking is not romantic and I wish romance writers would stop writing it. I get that is some people‘s fav trope but it‘s a no for me. 4y

Almost done with Devil in Winter! Not sure how I feel about it yet 🤷🏼‍♀️ I just recently picked up my first historical romances and I think I got lucky with these and I‘m hooked! I loved Annabelle and Lillian and their personalities not to mention the beautiful visuals throughout the books. I would say It Happened One Autumn is my favorite.

I actually finished this book at the end of April and loved it. Evangeline is a desperate to escape abusive relatives. This leads her to approach a scandalous viscount and ask for a marriage of convenience. I loved Sebastian‘s protectiveness toward Evangeline and her quiet strength. This was my first Kleypas book and I can‘t wait to read more!
Thanks to @ScientistSam for your review of this book that persuaded me to give it a try.

Possibly my favorite Wallflowers book so far, because it shows that quiet, shy Evie has a backbone of steel. And she's paired with the biggest, baddest rake of them all...

I'm totally in for #RomBkLove. My favorite trope is marriage of convenience. Devil in Winter being a good example. Tropes I also enjoy are uptight heroes, rake/wallflower pairings, nerdy/smart heroines, and virgin heroes.

Continuing my romance kick, in honor of my great grandmother who passed on Tuesday night. She was three days short of her 96th birthday and loved a good love story. She was blind for the last decade and I would get her audiobooks from the library, I was the only one she trusted to pick books she'd like. She had a long, full like and passed surrounded by grandkids, but I'm really going to miss her.

Devil In Winter is the Kleypas book my friend swears I've read...but which I can't remember reading. I decided that I need to refresh my memory before I pick up her latest book, Devil In Spring. A lot is riding on this book. Derek Craven was dnf for me, so I only have Team Sebastian to fall back on. Wish me luck! #romantsy #lisakleypas #historicalromance

Reread. I love a villain to hero romance and this is a great one. St Vincent is wonderful and Evie a great match for him. I sometimes struggle with the gentler heroines but Evie was done well. This is one of LK's best and this book ties together 2 different series's from her as well, which is a nice little addition. #romansty #osrbc
P.S. I've never seen this stepback (cover) - this scene wasn't in the book, lol. #inaccurate

After reading about a villainous hero in Duke of Sin, I needed to reread my favorite Wallflower book about quiet Evie and my first, I believe, dastardly hero. While he's not truly as knavish as Val, Sebastian did kidnap Evie's friend and he's desperate enough to do about anything to replenish his fortune. But he also shows himself to be a considerate partner and passionate businessman. I was happy to visit with them again. #romantsy #recommendsday

One of my all time favorite Historical Romances. I've read it a dozen times and each time it gets better and better.

It's got two strong leading characters, a dashing bad boy Viscount and a leading lady who holds her own and gets what she wants. And the plot, its brilliant. You wont be able to put it down 😍📚💜🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
