Narrative To Books Scandal in Spring (Wallflowers #4)
Librarian's Note: Alternate cover for this ISBN can be found here.After spending three London seasons searching for a husband, Daisy Bowman's father has told her in no uncertain terms that she must find a husband. Now. And if Daisy can't snare an appropriate suitor, she will marry the man he chooses—the ruthless and aloof Matthew Swift.
Daisy is horrified. A Bowman never admits defeat, and she decides to do whatever it takes to marry someone... anyone... other than Matthew. But she doesn't count on Matthew's unexpected charm... or the blazing sensuality that soon flares beyond both their control. And Daisy discovers that the man she has always hated just might turn out to be the man of her dreams.
But right at the moment of sweet surrender, a scandalous secret is uncovered... one that could destroy both Matthew and a love more passionate and irresistible than Daisy's wildest fantasies.

3.5 StarsDaisy deserved a husband who was honest and whole, not one who had built his life on lies.But that didnt stop Matthew from wanting her. He had always wanted Daisy, with an intensity that seemed to radiate from the pores of his skin. ♥ What an excellent book for the final wallflower!! ♥ She hated it that she felt so alive with him. She hated the way her senses drank in his presence like dry earth absorbing rain. She hated his handsome face and virile body, and the mouth that was more tempting
Instagram || Twitter || Facebook || Amazon || PinterestI'm slowly working my way through the Wallflowers series, and I have to say, this is Lisa Kleypas at her most charming. Nothing can surpass my love for The Gamblers duology, of course, but Wallflowers comes pretty darn close. It's about three sisters, and their friend, all of whom are considered wallflowers and bluestockings, and completely undesirable as wives...Daisy Bowman is the last Wallflower, and really feeling that "forever alone"
I've upgraded this book to 4.5 stars from the 4 I gave originally, round to 5. Main reasons being:Really like the heroine, Daisy. I like any h who knows what she wants and goes after it. Despite her initial prejudices towards Matthew, she gets over it relatively soon and then she sticks to her guns and is truly devoted and loyal. She uses everything she's got to get what she wants (what they both want), making her a "modern" heroine vs. the ones from Jane Austen who are prob more time period
This fourth and last instalment is, on par with the first Secrets of a Summer Night, the one that I found less engaging in the series.A hero hiding his identity, pining after the heroine since she was fifteen, she who has never spared him a glance until they meet again in England years later where she suddenly "notices" him? Not the best scenario to lure me in as far as my favourite tropes go, and I knew this from the start, but I really wanted to read the complete series so, armed with the best

Daisy Bowman, the last of the wallflowers left to marry, has had three season and has yet to find a man to marry. So her father insists that she has two months to find a husband, or she will be marrying Matthew Swift. From what she remembers of Matthew Swift is a cold man so much like her father, who is driven and intelligent, but when she meets him again she is stung by how much he has changed over the years. No longer a "bag of cabbage" he is handsome, strong features and mesmerizing. So with
