Narrative Concering Books A Well Pleasured Lady (Fairchild Family #1)

Prim, plain, desperately virtuous Lady Mary Fairchild stared at the seductive gentleman and wondered -- did he remember the elements of the night they met? Surely not. In the ten years since, she had abandoned her youthful impetuousness and transformed herself into a housekeeper -- disguising her beauty beneath a servant's dour clothing determined to conquer the passions of the past.

But Sebastian Durant, Viscount Whitfield, did recognize her as a Fairchild, one of his family's bitter enemies. When he demanded her help recovering a stolen diary, she dared not refuse him. When he proposed they masquerade as a betrothed couple, loyalty forced her to agree. And when the restraint between them shattered and pleasure became an obsession, Mary had to trust a powerful man who could send her to the gallows ... or love her through eternity.

This book was good except for one HUGE problem. Although Mary fights him the whole time, pulling his hair, hitting him, scratching him, kicking and trying to get away, he has sex with her anyway. Right at the end she stopped fighting but the whole sex scene was her saying stop. Sometimes the heros won't take no for an answer after marriage, but they weren't even truly engaged. I wish this would have been written in not such a cringy way. I felt guilty reading it. Besides this sex scene, the rest

People either hate or love this bookand all because of one infamous scene.Ive heard about this book over the years and the controversial rape scene about which even the author has been asked a few times. So I thought to find out for myself. Having forgotten the title, sifting through the CD books (several times) I always missed itas I never suspected to find that rape scene in a book named 'A Well Pleasured Lady'! Anyways, reading this mostly humorous story set in a rather quirky setting with an

Mary has been hiding as housekeeper, she returns to help Sebastion recover a stolen diary from her family. Bodice ripper type. When she returns to her family to help Sebastion there's drama and intrigue as her wicked family try manipulate her and get her into a compromising position. While she and those around her are all trying to keep their own secrets. Was ok read.

The story is centered around the turbulent love between Mary and Sebastian. Mary has been masquerading as a housekeeper for the last 10 years. 10 years ago she committed an unthinkable crime and she has been hiding from it ever since. This crime lead to her fleeing town and adopting a new persona.Enter Sebastian he is a man used to getting his own way. He knows who Mary is and he is happy to use her to get her own way. Sebastian has a long standing feud with Marys family after what they did to

Better than expectedBecause of some of the negative reviews, I almost didn't read this book. The reviews pointed to the "rape" scene between the main characters which doesn't even occur until 3/4 into the book. It started out aggressive but hardly a rape. Do you orgasm after a rape? Doubtful. Also they thought the heroine was weak and passive. She was anything but. Glad I have it a try.

I liked this book for the first part. Then I hated it. Who in God's name ever thought that rape was sexy??? Because that's exactly what it was. Mary was flat-out raped, and the fact that we're supposed to like the guy who did this almost made me vomit. I lost any sympathy for the hero at that point. He claims to love her - and I don't believe a bit of it. He's cruel, selfish, and a rapist to boot. And his attempt at an "apology" later is pathetic. Disgusting

I have enjoyed reading several of Christina Dodd's book and found this one lacking.Lady Guinevere Mary Fairchild and her brother ran away from their home after having something to do with a man's death. Mary ended up working as head housekeeper for Lady Valery who is notorious for having clandestine liaisons with members of the parliament. Unfortunately, the details of her liasions were added to her diary which has been stolen by someone in the Fairchild family and she asks for her godson's
