UNDERCOVER WITH THE EARL
Brotherhood of the Sword #1
Robyn DeHart
Releasing Aug 10th, 2015
Entangled: Scandalous
I do not know how I missed these books by Robyn DeHart.
If it had not been mentioned to me I would have truly missed
out on a great read. I love historical Romance, and she writes
one heck of a book. Needles to say I will be seeking out other
books by her, while I wait for book two to come out in this
series. This story was not only engaging it was a utterly
beautiful love story. You know there is a saying. "Happiness
can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one
only
remembers to turn on the light" This book shows that no
mater the situation Love will find you in the most unlikely of
places. I love how a simple country girl could pose as the
Queen and no one figure it out. And how even though they
start out hating each other, they finally find their way to each
other. This was truly a wonderful read, well worth the read.
I
hope you enjoy this book as much as I did. If you do like this
book, please
consider leaving a review. The Authors really
like
it when you do, they value your opinions too.

The handsome Earl of Summersby may just be the most
eligible bachelor in London, but has no interest in a wife. As
a member of the Brotherhood, Bennett Haile is far more vested
in his undercover duties for the crown and protecting the
Queen from would-be assassins. For now he has the perfect
tool with which to lure out the villains—a young woman with
an uncanny likeness to the queen.

The spirited Evelyn Marington is about to live out every
country girl's dream—becoming royalty overnight. Under the
tutelage of the arrogant Earl of Summersby, she'll have to
fool the entire court that she is, in fact, the queen. But as
danger threatens from every side, Bennett realizes that his
lovely little protegé isn't just placing her life in his hands...
She's stealing his heart.
“Stand and walk to
the other side of the room,” he said.
“I beg your pardon?”
“I must evaluate how
you walk.”
She gaped at him.
“How I walk?”
“Do try and keep up,
Miss Marrington. People will be watching.”
“Is there something
wrong with how I walk?”
“Your walk is ...”
No. In truth, she walked with an unconscious
grace and agility he
found charming. There was nothing
studied about her
movements, nothing calculated. She
managed to be both
completely natural and totally
bewitching, which was
entirely beside the point.
“Your walk is
unstudied.”
“Are you staying I'm
clumsy?” Her gaze sparked with
indignation, but
perhaps a flash of pain as well. “I am well
aware that I lack the
grace and cultivation of my older sisters,
but I assure you I am
not some clumsy oaf who can't be
trusted to walk into
a room.”
He drew in a deep
breath, praying for patience. This was why
he wasn't yet
married. This was why he was absolutely the
wrong man for this
job.
“Your mannerisms must
match hers,” he said tightly.
She closed her eyes
and took several deep breaths before
standing, then walked
across the room. It was not a clumsy
or awkward gait, but
not regal either.
“No.” He shook his
head.
“Try it again but
slower, yet with more purpose.”
She crossed her arms
over her ample bosom.
“This is ridiculous.”
He allowed his gaze
to linger on her tempting curves before
stepping over to her.
“Miss Marrington, do you want to do this
assignment or not?”
Her mouth opened,
then she paused and
her brows slanted
down in anger.
“My Lord, I realize
that you are an Earl and of
relation to our Queen
and our Society deems you more
important than I.
Perhaps they are even correct; however, it
would seem to me that
you,” she jabbed a finger into his
chest, “need me more
than I need you for this assignment.
Thus far you have
insulted my family, the way I walk and my
hair. You are
arrogant and rude and sorely lacking in
manners.” Her hands
fisted on her hips accenting their roundedness.
How was it that this
little slip of a woman shoed no fear of
him? He’d frightened
women merely by walking into their
drawing room. And
here, he was being a bully—and for good
reason—to Evelyn
Marrington, but she was quite obviously
not afraid of him. He
couldn’t help but find that both
infuriating and
alluring.
“You have obviously
decided that I do not possess the
intelligence nor
grace to succeed in this charade. I will not
stand for this sort
of treatment. I should like a carriage to
bring me home on the
morrow. Good day, Lord Somersby.”
She turned and
marched from the room.
He watched her go in
complete disbelief. No one had ever
spoken to him in such
a way. Arrogant and rude! She was the
only lacking in
manners. This entire assignment echoed with
idiocy. Ellis had
claimed his cousin amiable and clever,
neither of which
Bennett had seen. All he had witnessed was
her sharp tongue.
Damned if he didn’t
find her sass alluring as hell. All the more
reason to send her
back home and tell Potterfield she
refused to
participate. Bennett couldn’t be blamed for this
failure if she was
the one who walked away. This would work
out perfectly. He’d
get to continue with the Brotherhood and
not be distracted by
the ridiculously attractive and fiery-
tongued Miss
Marrington. It would almost be worth
completing the
assignment just to see if she was as
passionate in other
areas. Almost.
