The Rake by LJ Shen

 

The Rake, an all-new captivating royal romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author L.J. Shen is available now!

Boston’s most infamous femme fatale meets her match in a dangerously mild Englishman who has vowed to never marry.

Emmabelle Penrose has cruised through life never needing a man, a plan that has worked stunningly well until about five minutes ago, when she decided she must have a baby.
Devon Whitehall is 6’2” of premium DNA, financial security, and British royal titles. Best of all, he fears the one thing she dreads the most: getting hitched.
Emmabelle figures it’s a no-brainer when Devon offers his services—sperm and involvement in her future child’s life.
What begins as an innocent, modern-family arrangement, quickly erodes into a web of lies, dark pasts, and unfurled secrets.
Inside this chaos, Emmabelle and Devon are forced to face the awful truth—they are capable of love.
Even worse, they might feel it toward each other.

My Review
5 Stars
The Rake by LJ Shen is book 4 in the Boston Belles Series.  This is the story of Devon Whitehall and Emmabelle Penrose 'Belle'.  Devon escaped England when he was younger to get away from his family who had plans for him he wasn't into and to escape his title of Marquess. Now he has made a successful life for himself in the US.  Devon has no plans to really settle down and enjoys different women.  Belle is focused on her business of running the Madame Mayhem burlesque club and has no plans for a man in her life either. But her 'Baby Clock' is ticking and she feels she wants one but just needs a sperm donor.  Belle and Devon end up agreeing to go forward with a baby since they both know they didn't want a commit.  But the more they are together the more they are eating their previous words. In addition to all of that, Danger has found them adding to their story.  Really enjoy this author's writing and I do recommend this book.
