Review: Ravishing Ruby & Angel in Scarlet by Lavinia Kent

ravishing rubyEmma Scanton’s grandfather wants her to marry. Though he means well, he has no idea that his sweet, shy granddaughter leads a double life as the proprietress of Madame Rouge’s. “Ruby” doesn’t mean to disappoint her family—in fact, there’s quite a bit about the job she would gladly leave behind—but she cannot bear the thought of losing her most beloved admirer: Captain Derek Price. What would she do without his muscular arms encircling her waist or his rough chin scraping her cheek? No, marriage is out of the question, for Ruby and for Emma.

Beckoned back to England to assume his role as heir to the family fortune, Derek will soon enter into a suitable marriage. But not without one last visit to see Madame Rouge. During the long months away, Derek could only think of Ruby: her luscious lips and cobalt eyes, the swell of her breasts against the bodice of her gown. Derek’s rich, attractive fiancée, selected for him by his family, is perfectly lovely. But Derek wants the ravenous, ravishing Ruby . . . for far more than one night.

 

angel in scarletAfter her dreams of wedding bells are dashed by a man she thought had serious intentions, Miss Angela Ripon must be satisfied. She plans to make him burn for her, and then to reject him as he rejected her. There’s only one woman who can teach Angela that sort of seduction: Madame Rouge—or Ruby, to the men who frequent her house of pleasure. The infamous madam agrees to help, but only after warning Angela that her target has very specific tastes. To trap her prey, she must shed every last inhibition.

Matthew Harkness, Earl of Colton, doesn’t mean to hurt the young admirers who flock to him. He simply isn’t interested in women who are too timid for his dark desires. He judged Angela to be like the others—tender, sweet, and innocent. So how to explain the change that has come over her? Matthew aches to teach Angela all he knows of earthly pleasures. But even as she offers the control he craves, perhaps this angelic beauty has a lesson or two to teach him.

LaviniaLavinia Kent never knew that most people don’t make up stories in their heads to pass the time. She still has a hard time understanding how those who don’t survive the doctor’s waiting room or a grocery store line without another world to escape into.

As the mother of three, Lavinia finds “leisure time” to be ever-elusive, but when she is not reading romance novels, she watches far too much HBO and reality television. It must also be noted that she has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things Buffy and the new Doctor Who.

As always I will start my review by thanking Random House Loveswept and Netgalley for providing us with a copy of these books so that we could bring you this review.

Man on man what can I say about these books other than HOT!!! Wow the heat level on both of these books is off the charts in my opinion. First we get to know a lot more about Ruby (for me that I missed reading the first short story on Ruby and Derek, but it was awesome to see these two together and to see Ruby find love.

Though there is a misunderstanding that ends up terminating Angela and Matthew’s first go at love, she is determined to change and get her revenge. Only problem is that neither knows what really is going on is that there is a mix up of information. Though I admit I love the fact that Angela has come up with a revenge plot and has seeked out Madam Ruby’s help in her plot.

Of course between these books and another series I have been reading I am now on a huge historical kick and will have a few more reviews of these types of books coming soon.

I give both these books 5 ravishing kisses…

Happy Reading… Adri
