A Scoundrel of Her Own (Sinful Wallflowers #3) by Stacy Reid

Lady Ophelia Darby exists in two worlds. In one, she is the impudent, willful daughter of a powerful marquess and darling of the ton. In the other, she moves through the underworld’s shadows as songstress Lady Starlight, protected only by the notoriously wealthy scoundrel Devlin Byrne. But when she stumbles upon her beloved father’s darkest secrets, the line between her two worlds quickly blurs. Now she needs the help of the one man a lady should never trust.

Devlin Byrne stands on the edge of London society, knowing he will never be accepted. No one else knows that his obscene wealth and ruthlessness aren’t without purpose. Or that his purpose has golden-brown eyes that shimmer with mischief, the palest of skin, and a lush mouth that beckons to be kissed, and deeply. But having Ophelia is only the beginning of Devlin’s plans.

It’s undeniable that Devlin Byrne is a dangerous temptation—but just as Ophelia begins to trust him, maybe even fall for him, she discovers she’s not the only one with secrets. And his would lead her down more than just the path of scandal…

5 out of 5 stars

I absolutely adored A Scoundrel of Her Own! It was an exciting and enchanting story filled with passion, emotion, and so many entertaining scenes. I loved the flirting and boldness and all the ups and downs. It made for an amazing read.

It's hard to say who I loved more, Ophelia or Devlin because they were both fantastic characters. I loved Ophelia’s zest for life and how she put herself out there to be wild and daring. Devlin was incredible, I loved him from the start but somehow the more I learned about him, the deeper in love I fell with him. I liked how hard he worked and how much he cared for others. I enjoyed the conflict that kept Ophelia and Devlin apart and the intense pull between them that brought them together. There were so many well-thought-out scenes from flirty and witty to passionate and real. I loved their verbal sparring and the growing heat between them.

From the very sweet and heartfelt prologue, I was all in. There was an excellent introduction and rich details keeping me captivated. There was a wonderful build that had me on the edge of my seat. The ending was heart-in-my-throat pulse-pounding with a nice bit of drama. I liked meeting both of their friends and revisiting couples from the first two stories as well.

I loved this so much. It was an engaging read with exceptional characters that were intriguing and charming and I loved every second. I laughed, I cried a little and most definitely swooned as Ophelia and Devlin fought their way to their happy ending.
