From the Back Cover of Book: He gets crankier and crankier as the Moon gets full… The rules of Society can be beastly – especially when you’re a werewolf and it’s that irritating time of the month. Simon Westfield, the Duke of Blackmoor, is rich, powerful, and sinfully handsome, and has spent his entire life creating scandal and mayhem. It doesn’t help his wolfish temper at all that Miss Lily Rutledge seems not the least bit afraid of him. And in fact, may be as untamable as he is… A woman whose charm is stronger than the Moon… When Lily’s beloved nephew’s behavior becomes inexplicably wild, she turns to Simon, the boy’s cousin and guardian, for help. But Simon’s idea of assistance is far different than hers, and Lily finds herself ensconced in his house and engaged to the rogue. They both may have bitten off more than they can chew when each begins to discover the other’s darkest secrets…
This is the first book in the Westfield Brothers series. Lily comes to the Duke of Blackmoor to get help with her nephew whom he is the guardian of. As he has changed from her sweet boy and she believes that he might be able to help. Simon just wants to live his life as he has but realizes he does have a duty to the boy. But he wants Lily to leave more for her own good. The two are drawn together and yet Simon keeps pushing her away. The story is brilliant. I love the characters and dialog of this. Once I started reading it I couldn’t put it down. History has been a passion of mine and even though this is a Historical Romance it is also a Paranormal Romance too. Which the writer merges together in a beautiful way. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Tall, Dark and Wolfish.
