HOW TO RESCUE A RAKE is a part of the Book Club Belles Society series by Jayne Fresina. Romantic, fun, and witty, readers will enjoy the story from chapter one. Fresina's story follows Jane Austen's PERSUASION, and this helps tell Diana's love story. Diana is a wonderfully amusing heroine who grows into her own person throughout the story. Her history with the hero brings tension to the romance and secrets to the plot. Nathaniel is charming and his banter is humorous and lighthearted.
The country setting of HOW TO RESCUE A RAKE is lovely and different from other Regency novels. The secondary characters add extra personalities to the story, and help bring Diana and Nathaniel's love story to life. HOW TO RESCUE A RAKE is a fun country romance with an entertaining hero and heroine.
Book Summary
Reject his marriage proposal
Nathaniel
Sherringham has returned to Hawcombe Prior a changed man.
Gone is the reckless rake who went out on a limb to propose
to Diana Makepiece three years ago. Now Nate's mysterious
new wealth has the town's rumor mill spinning. To stir
things up (and get Diana's attention), Nate boldly announces
his plans to marry "any suitable girl" under the age of 25.
Run away
Diana, now 27 and still
single, is acutely aware of Nate's return. When her mother
suggests a trip to visit a cousin in Bath, Diana leaps at
the chance to escape the heartbreak and regret she can't
help but feel in Nate's presence...and avoid his irritating
charade to find a bride.
But for Nate, Diana has always been the one. He might just have to follow her to Bath and once again lay his heart on the line to win her attention-and her heart.
