"The Night Before Scandal" [Heart's Temptation Series, Book 7] by Scarlett Scott
Author's Book Description : What happens in a carriage doesn’t always stay in a carriage...
Lord Harry Marlow reluctantly attends a Christmas house party hosted by his brother and his sister-in-law, who also happens to be the woman he once longed to wed himself. He’s not pleased by the prospect of holly and mistletoe and merrymaking any more than he is with the reminder of the love he could have had. But his dismay doesn’t last for long when a mysterious stranger in the midst of a blizzard captures his interest.
Lady Alexandra Danvers is unabashedly eccentric. Nothing and no man interests her more than her scientific pursuits. Until she meets the sinfully handsome Lord Harry, that is. When sparks fly between the unlikely pairing, scandal isn’t far behind. Will Lord Harry and Lady Alexandra find true love together by Christmas day?
Length: novella
Note: Previously appeared in the collection "Seduced Under the Mistletoe." This is an extended version never before published.
My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. One girl in men’s clothes wins over the younger brother of a Duke and in a turn of events their lives entwine for good.
This was a uniquely written historical romance that I did like a lot. I enjoyed how forthright both Alexandra (Danvers) and Harry are about their feelings, themselves, and their beliefs they were. In addition, I appreciated how even though they both had their goals they didn’t allow their goals to get in the way of themselves. I especially enjoyed how because of a “situation” even though Harry and Alexandra have “society rules” pushed onto themselves, Alexandra and Harry fall for one another despite that. Also, I was charmed by how Harry won Alexandra over.
If you are one who doesn’t mind reading standalone novels/novellas that are in the middle of a series, then this is one you should check out.
I DO recommend it to those who like sweet & steamy historical romance novels/novellas.

Book Teaser(s) :
"You like that I am strange?" He captured her gaze, holding it with his, and the fierce light burning within those emerald depths refused to allow her to look away. "I do believe that I like everything about you, Danvers. And I do not think you are strange. I think you are an original. Besides, I already told you my own quirk." ~ within Chapter 5
