I had also heard that the H in this novel is similar to St. Vincent. Personally I felt Michael's characterization as a rake was better executed than Sebastian.

Sebastian is a silver tongued devil, but his jaded nature is never really explored or explained. Michael's nature is not only explored in more depth, but plays a part in how he initially deals with the h in this story.

Michael plays with Evelyn and assumes her interest in the orphanage is shallow and self serving. His interactions with Evie early on give you insight to how he views women and he ultimately expects the worst from Evie. Michael's own relationship with his mother further supports is presumptions about Evie. But he doesn't get what he expects with Evie.

Michael's reformation is handled better than Sebastian. Sebastian was Insta-love. He met his Evie and BOOM he needs his ways (somewhat). Michael's growth and salvation takes longer and it is more believable, in my opinion.

London Perfect Scoundrel Lessons in Love Book 2 Suzanne Enoch 9780380820832 Books Reviews

Am I the only one who sees that Evie was not weak and that Saint was the problem in the book?

Evie was not weak. She'd always been misused and treated like a thing instead of a woman, that she was used to being a doormat. I hated Saint for the majority of the book. The way he talked to her was taunting, not seductive. He teased and manipulated her, he deserved being locked in that basement. I kept waiting for his comeuppance, or at least a scene where he realizes what an ass he was, but no-go.

I HATE when a marriage proposal or a love confession scene is the very last thing in the book. It leaves room for doubt that everything went okay. And, here we readers are, waiting through the whole story for him to start actually being nice, and for them to finally be together, and we get only two pages of it? And at the very end? Hopefully the last of this series is better.
In the second installment of Enoch's Lessons in Love series Miss Evelyn Marie Ruddick had made her list of things she would like to teach to her, as of yet, unnamed scoundrel. At the present time though, her main concern was to do something for the orphans of the Heart of Hope orphanage and in the process, she found her pupil... the Marquis of St. Aubyn, aka "Saint" who just happened to be the head of the orphanages board of directors. More importantly, he was known widely as London's most perfect scoundrel, and banned from most of gentle society's social establishments - not that he cared!
Evie, determined to aid the children in the orphanage, needed the approval of the arrogant and devilishly charming St. Aubyn, and, if in the meantime, she could impart a few lessons to him - so much the better. It almost seemed as though she were getting both her wishes until she discovered his nefarious plans of demolishing the orphanage. That was when the gloves came off and with the aid of the delightful children, they kidnapped the Marquis and locked him in the dungeon. Unfortunately, for Evie his touch, his looks, his words had already done much to inflame her desires. Once he escaped, his `blackmail' to keep silent over her kidnapping him, was nothing short of pure bliss!
Loved this book! Evelyn Marie was a darling and the Saint - oooh, what a devil! The plot itself was very original and fun; the children were a delight; and the sensuality was passionate and heady! As part of the series, it can and most definitely does stand alone, but is also enhanced with involvement of Evelyn's best friends, Georgiana and Dare from THE RAKE, and Lucinda Barrett from ENGLAND'S PERFECT HERO. Any lover of Regency romances who like them served up with naughty and `very nice' sensuality will sure to be pleased with any or all of these books in Enoch's Lessons in Love series. --- Marilyn Rondeau, Official Reviewer for [...] ---
This is one of Enoch's finest. The next (third) book in this series is my favorite, but I truly enjoyed this book as well. The premise of the series is three friends creating a list of lessons to teach men(rakes) on how to appropriately treat ladies.

Evie decides to volunteer at an orphanage, headed by the Marquis of St. Aubyn. Saint is decidedly notorious and a true jaded cynic, and does not believe her intentions for volunteering. Evie picks him as the one that has to be taught the lessons mentioned earlier. A truly surprising kidnapping and seduction later, the story highlights repentance, redemption and love based on knowing each others characters, not just faces.

Saint is hot, handsome, exudes masculinity and makes ME want him about a quarter of my way into the book. No wonder Evelyn, the heroine, fell for him without even wanting to... Evie wants to do something other than just look good and act dumb to please men. All except her brother - in which case she is without fail a woman without any backbone. Therefore the confusion about her true character. Although how she acted around her brother is probably in line with the Regency period expectations, I personally wish she had been stronger in how she dealt with him. Other than the annoying brother part, the story and characters are wonderful.

Enoch's witty dialogue is excellent. The romance sizzles throughout the book, but without a sex scene every other chapter. The sex, when it happens, is hot.
I was a little disappointed with this story. I heard the hero was likened to St. Vincent from Kleypas Devil In Winter. I didn't really see that. This was an ok book but I felt the couple had lust first and then love. In Devil in Winter I could feel and see the couple fall in love. I couldn't see or feel that in this story. Saint was definitely a rake. He did have some character development and become a more caring man. I did like that he eventually realized he was in love... Of course at the very end of the book. The heroine was ok but some of this story was very far fetched... Kidnapping? The couple didn't even act like when they were intimate that it was a big deal, which it would have been back then. I didn't hate this book but I won't re-read and I didn't think it was very romantic and where was the epilogue?
I had also heard that the H in this novel is similar to St. Vincent. Personally I felt Michael's characterization as a rake was better executed than Sebastian.

Sebastian is a silver tongued devil, but his jaded nature is never really explored or explained. Michael's nature is not only explored in more depth, but plays a part in how he initially deals with the h in this story.
