Will this undercover pair take their love to the bank Second in a witty, sexy Victorian romance trilogy from up and coming author Susanna Ives. Handsome, silver-tongued Viscount Randall doesn't get along with his bank partner, the financially brilliant but hopelessly frumpish spinster Isabella St. Vincent. But when a fraudulent investor flees Town, the childhood nemeses unite and give chase. Posing as an array of far-fetched characters and pursued by crooked police and a powerful Railroad baron, the pretend lovers discover the only person they can trust with their life--and their love--is one another.
"Sensuous foreplay heats up the pages but never overtakes the captivating story or the charming, witty characters." - Publishers Weekly
"Wicked Little Secrets are Ives' forte, but it's the laugh-out-loud humor and slapstick comedy that will have readers crying with joy. Ives' sprightly repartee adds to the merriment, yet the poignancy that lies beneath will touch readers' hearts. Ives delivers on every level." - RT Book Reviews, 4 1/2 Stars, Top Pick!
"This was a fun book with a surprising side helping of women's rights and financial sense. I enjoyed the writing style, and all the characters." - Romance @ Random
"This was a great story by Ives and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!" - Historical Romance Lover
"...heartwarming and lively, filled with surprises, laughter, and joy, and well worth reading and experiencing vicariously." - A Time for Us
"I loved the quirkiness and unique vibe the author brought to the story. Everything adds up to make an historical romance that I won't soon forget." - Bitten by Romance
"[A] clever and enchanting story about self discovery, trust, and friendships" - Books I Love a Latte
"I have never read Susanna Ives before this book, but I will be going out to track down her other releases. From start to finish, this book draws the reader into the story and takes them on an almost epic adventure full of fake accents, distinctive characters, self-revelations, and a little bit of scandal." - Once Upon a Romance
"If you like your historical romance to be very serious stuff, turn away! If you want to laugh out loud while reading about two seemingly mismatched people find their way out of almost-certain financial ruin and into love, grab Wicked, My Love!" - To Each Their Own Reviews
