The rules of engagement were never so scandalous. . .
A rumored pirate and the scurrilous black sheep of his well-to- do family, Cade Cavendish relishes his world of rebellion, deception, and seduction. Nothing and no one can hold him to be the duty-bound, honorable man he is expected to be. But when an unexpected run-in at his twin brother's estate with a ravishing, raven-haired maid leads her to believe he's actually a viscount, Cade's renegade life is thrown wildly off-kilter. And even though a case of mistaken identity can be quickly set to rights, matters of the heart are quite different...
Miss Danielle LaCrosse is startled to learn that the handsome gentleman who radiates sin and has the devil in his eyes is not her employer the Viscount, but rather his infamous brother. A former heiress, orphaned and left penniless, Danielle has more than a few secrets of her own. Cade may be skilled at coaxing even the most hidden desires out of Danielle but can he earn her trust--and win her heart--as they embark on an adventure to confront a dangerous enemy from both of their pasts . . . and uncover the identity of the so-called Black Fox along the way?

How would the author describe her book?
"I call Never Trust a Pirate:
The Scarlet Pimpernel meets Dirty Rotten Scoundrels in Regency England."

Those of you who have loved the other books of the series, will be happy to learn more about Cade, Rafe Cavendish's mysterious twin brother and his quest for revenge - and maybe for love, who knows...
According to Valerie Bowman the series was conceived on the terrible boyfriend of a friend of hers whose actions made her think about some kind of break-up service - add some pinches of Regency and The Unexpected Duchess, the first book in the series, was born. Initially planned as a series of three books, the Playful Brides are now planned to consist of eleven books and a novella in the end.
If you have ever thought what the characters in the Playful Brides might look like, you might want to check out Valerie Bowman's Pinterest Site for the Playful Brides where you can find a lot of photos that'll give you a good idea what or rather who she had in mind when she wrote her books.
As you can see - life - and love - aren't easy for the Playful Brides and their loved ones but at least you can look forward to an HEA, even if those stubborn and perfectly charming characters need some time to get there.
