Product Description

Will he secure his future by ruining hers, or will she ruin his plans by securing him? A new twist on the old fortune hunter plot puts an impoverished earl in a position to gain his fortune only by ruining an innocent's reputation without offering marriage. The innocent he's selected, however, has no plans to settle for anything less than marriage and will go to almost any length to secure him.


When the impoverished Andrew Black, Earl of Townson, hits rock bottom, he makes an agreement that will end his eight year poverty streak once and for all. In order to gain his fortune he must do but one simple thing: ruin an innocent girl’s reputation enough to make her flee to America.

Brooke Banks isn’t interested in marriage, or so she thinks. She came to London to have a good time, and that’s exactly what she’s doing. Widely known for her tendency to flout the rules, she suspects nothing when a handsome stranger appears on her doorstep.


Thirteen days, a handful of kisses and one scandalous situation later, Andrew and Brooke will have to choose to stick to their original plans, or decide if a life together is worth the risk.


***This is a full-length novel, approx. 100,000 words.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Hero One Can Love, April 19, 2011
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    This review is from: Intentions of the Earl (Scandalous Sisters, Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
    I read the second book, Liberty for Paul, first, and it was hard to decide which book I enjoyed more. I finally decided this one is my favorite, so far, in the books Rose Gordon has written. I have yet to read book 3, so we'll see if my opinion changes.

    Anyway, this was a fun read. Andrew Black is not one of those rakes I often read about in regency romances, and that was a huge selling point for me. Instead, Andrew is coerced into agreeing to ruin the reputation of one of the daughters in the Banks family to get them to run back to America. What endeared me to Andrew right away was his reluctance to do it. This is a hero with a conscience who feels torn between doing what is right and doing what he knows is wrong. I really liked this hero. Rose Gordon's heroes are men I'd fall in love with in real life, so it's no wonder Brooke Banks fell in love with Andrew.

    He shows up at the residence where Brooke and her family are staying, and when the two... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars New twist for a classic love story, February 25, 2011
    This review is from: Intentions of the Earl (Scandalous Sisters, Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
    This book was witty and refreshing. I would recommend it to any who loves a good story. Agreeing on terms to ruin a young lady, the earl never imagined that he would develop feelings for the chit. When everything starts to unravel he has to make a decision and she has to over come her stubbornness. The characters are well written, the story is cleanly written and very enjoyable.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Funny, Different and Slightly Unconventional, May 21, 2011
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    This review is from: Intentions of the Earl (Scandalous Sisters, Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
    I found this book fun and enjoyable with an unusual storyline, humorous dialogue and situations, and a variety of dynamic secondary characters that include a shameless Matchmaking Mamma who knows no bounds, a drama queen who'll make you shake your head, a noble brainiac you can't help but love-especially when he issues a duel he has zero chance of winning, a shrew who's out to snag the hero one way or the other, a cackling villain and a minister capable of innocent deceit.

    This book isn't your typical alpha-male meets simpering heroine who can't think for herself historical. This was a huge part of why I liked it from the start.

    Brooke, the heroine was a nice change from how most historical heroines are described. She's not docile and biddable or in need of a savior in the least. As a young lady who is visiting from America and cares very little for the rules of English propriety, she is headstrong, bold and sometimes too outspoken for her own good... Read more
