A proper young lady should never attend a Masque...Aphrodite is no lady.

Lady Caroline has lived a loveless marriage and upon the death of her husband she is now obligated to marry his brother Taran Robertson, Viscount of Blackhall. Caroline refuses to allow her first taste of lust, and desire to be at the hands of a man who never wanted her. In her last night of freedom, she attends the Masque as Aphrodite, no inhibitions, just to find a man to show her the intimacies of erotic, sexy loving.

I recently read Lord Keeper by Tarah Scott and I was blown away by her imagination, creativity and writing skills. Since then, Ms. Scott has a new fan and I was eager to read more stuff from her! An Improper Wife was (also) one of the best stories I read this year from a new (recently) author to me. Didn't know about/from KyAnn Waters either, but this, didn't stop me from reading this awesome and delicious story!

I love everything in this book, the characters fit their personalities, the scenes w...more

Before Lady Caroline is to marry the Viscount of Blackhall in a passionless loveless marriage, she wants to have one moment of pleasure. So she attends a Masque...where all inhibitions disappear once the masks are on. There she meets tall, dark and hot in a kilt! Neither of them knew who each other is but both have the same needs....to have one moment of passion before commiting themselves to a loveless marriage Throw in a maze, a carriage and...sorry, you'll have to read the book if you want to...more

*** THIS IS AN ADULT BOOK DUE TO IT'S SEXUAL NATURE AND THIS REVIEW IS INTENDED FOR 18 YEARS AND OLDER**

First I would like to Thank FMB Blog Tours for allowing me to be on this great Tour. I have to say I love this time period. People in this period did not marry for love but for status and convenience. An Improper Wife is one of those reads where you sit back and take a look at a two people who are being forced to marry and they don't know each other but the laws of that time state if a man die...more

I loved Caroline! She was by far my favorite character. She sets off to get one night of passion, to discover a stir of feeling, a hint of decadence, a memory to chase away the cold that will surely surround her marriage. So she dons the costume of none other than Aphrodite herself, and sets off in search of pleasure. Sadly, she discovers she is more nervous than naughty and her blue domino companion just isn't sparking anything but boredom. The last straw comes when she spies a friend and decid...more

***************FIVE STARS, TARAH SCOTT!!!!*****************

Whew, I started this one yesterday and stayed up well into the morning hours reading I was so hooked! This was such a provocative, thrilling story with characters that I just adored!! Set in the late 1700's, An Improper Wife is the story of Lady Caroline Wilmont, a young woman who, when her betrothed dies, is promised to his younger brother. Facing a loveless marriage, she decides to attend a masque and fulfill her deepest desires before...more

The setting is Newcastle, England, 1798. Lady Caroline Wilmont is due to marry Taran Robertson, Viscount of Blackhall, the very next day and become Viscountess of Blackhall. But this night she is Aphrodite, attending a Masque for a last chance at feeling any kind of passion before entering her passionless and loveless marriage to Taran. While fleeing to the gardens of the estate, Caroline meets the "kilted god" and he shows her a night of...more

It's been a while since I have read a romance not based on paranormal and supernatural characters. I love the fact that Lady Caroline sneaks off to attend the masque the night before she is to wed Lord Blackhall. The story has lots of twists and turns which made my eyebrows raise a few time thinking 'Oh yeah?', at other times thinking 'really?'. The hot and steamy loves scenes were well written. The only drawback is that there was so many sex scenes with the same wording that I tended to wanted...more

This book was amazing and I wish it was a little longer

For the first time I read the summary I said I want to read this and I wasnn't dissapointed when I did.I liked the story and it reminded me of the book Her Husband's Harlot(one of my favorite historical romance novels) in some parts.The book had a little bit of mystery towards the end and a last chapter that was like an epilogue.Caroline isn't like the usual heroines in this kind of book.Hell even in the 21rst century books the heroines aren

I will be the first to admit that I haven't been big into historical romances in a long time. I'm a HUGE paranormal romance reader but something about this book called to me. Was it the cover? Maybe. Was it the blurb? Maybe. I can't tell you exactly what it was but I'm happy I listened to that little voice inside my head saying "Download." Okay so I hear that all the time but anyway as I was saying, usually I get lost with historical romances or there isn't enough romance for me or something I d...more

I'm not normally a fan of Regency Romance but I must admit that the title drew me in when I saw it on a friend's reading list. To my surprise it started out hot from the get-go and the fact that I needed to know what was to come next was definitely a selling point. The characters are very endearing and Taran is all male, all alpha and sexy as can be. Two plots in this story that co-incide quite nicely add to the suspense which is always appreciated. This is not your normal regency love/virgin/pr...more

All I want to know is how a woman dressed for a ball, sneaks out of the ball to run away from her husband on horse back, gets kidnapped from a stranger after he chases her, grabs her off her horse and when the husband finds her and chases after them the man throws her on the ground from the horse. Her husband is so happy he saved her they just had to have sex under the trees. Then they go back to the ball and she goes into the ball room and never needed to go fix herself up from her ordeal she j...more

4.5 stars. I really enjoyed it. I think the only thing keeping me from giving it a 5 star rating was that it ended a little too quickly.

I couldn't put this book down. The story was fast paced, the main characters were lovable, and the chemistry between Caroline and Taran was intense. The love scenes were both tasteful and hot. I was rooting for them from the beginning. Definitely a great romantic read.
Tia
I loved this book, it was full of excitement, adventure, romance and tons of passion. The way it was written was perfection. You immediately form and emotional bond to all the characters. The book was not just a love story, it was a crime adventure too. Danger one moment, passion the next. It was pure bliss. Can't say enough amazing stuff about this novel. Tarah Scott has some serious talent!!

I would read this again in a blink for sure. Loved how much fun I had with it!

On the other hand, it had a couple too many sex scenes that didn't exactly fit the story due to the fact that I felt they were out of context. I have absolutely no other complaints about this title, it was believable, organic, with a great pacing and a lovely ending. I had an amazing experience since it overcame my expectations- a highly enjoyable and comic read (oh, and sexy too)!

Tarah Scott and KyAnn Waters have created a tantalizing tale of passionate desire between the sexy kilted Lord Blackhall, Taran Robertson and his arranged bride, Lady Caroline Wilmont.

"An Improper Wife" is a beautiful story that is far more that just an erotic adventure that has an abundance of raw sexuality.

Ms. Scott and Ms. Waters draw you in from the first chapter until the very end. Well done, ladies! I hope to read more from you both!

Highly recommend this! Detailed review to soon follow.
Christine
I enjoyed the back and forth banter between Caroline and Taran. The sexual tension and heck the whole story line. Well written and I do love me some Scottish Highlanders with kilts- yummy!
Tonya
It was a cute fast read. A little too short for me.
Tina
I loved the characters in this one!! I really enjoyed their banter. It is also very steamy!
My only issue is that I got lost a little at the end. Also, there was no epilogue, and I wanted to know more.
