A Kiss of Lies: The Disgraced Lords Series: A Loveswept Historical Romance by Bronwen Evans
In Bronwen Evans’s Loveswept debut, a pair of damaged souls ignite each other’s deepest passions—even as they tempt fate by deceiving the world.
Desperate to escape her abusive past, Sarah Cooper disguises herself as a governess in the employ of Christian Trent, Earl of Markham, the man who, long ago, she fantasized about marrying. Despite the battle scars that mar his face, Sarah finds being near Christian rekindles her infatuation. A governess, however, has no business in the arms of an earl, and as she accompanies Christian on his voyage home, Sarah must resist her intense desires—or risk revealing her dangerous secrets.
One of the renowned Libertine Scholars, Christian Trent once enjoyed the company of any woman he chose. But that was before the horrors of Waterloo, his wrongful conviction of a hideous crime, and his forcible removal from England. Far from home and the resources he once had, Christian believes the life he knew—and any chance of happiness—is over . . . until his ward’s governess sparks his heart back to life, and makes him remember the man he used to be. Now Christian is determined to return to England, regain his honor, and win the heart of the woman he has come to love.

This review is from: A Kiss of Lies: A Disgraced Lords Novel (The Disgraced Lords Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
This was an amazing book! I loved it! The disgraced hero, the torn shell of a man, the beautiful, smart woman who loves him. This sad, sad story was heart wreching yet wonderful. I couldn't put it down! A lovely story that isn't your average marry for a title story. The depth of these characters and those around them, builds a great book! I'm already dying for the next story in this series! Well written, sinfully sexy and just a fabulous read! This is my new favorite Historical I've read in the last few years~!
