Reviewer by Destiny Rodriguez.
The book is about the life of a
thirty-seven year old editor for a tabloid magazine named
Alice Ferguson. Alice’s
tells her story from her point of view
in this book.
Alice
reflects on the journey that life has taken her through and flashbacks that she
remembers as well.
Alice tells us she had a happy childhood up until her mother died from cancer when
she was very young.
In her teens she was in a lot of pain, so much of anger in
losing her mother and shame on how she’d lived a reckless teenaged life and
sin.
Alice visits Los Angeles California
and attends many high profile celebrity parties.
In one party she met Burton Banister at a party in Bel Air
in the summer in California.
A costume party with many pro athletes and celebrities in
attendance.
Alice
consumes many types of hard liquor and Vicodin pills .
That night ended in a one nightstand as Alice later takes a blood test to confirm her
carrying Burton Banister baby.
Both careless and not wearing a condom is how this all
happened.
Alice really never wanted to
have a baby, as Alice
thinks of her sinful behavior of her one nightstand.
When Alice
returns home and tells her father she’s carrying a baby and slowly wants to
change her life.
Now Alice
is married to a sports doctor Burton Banister.
Alice
searches for forgiveness for her sins and attends church every Sunday bring all
those painful memories to surface.
Pastor Tim says,”: Today were honoring , celebrating, and loving our mother’s.”
Days like this Alice
really needed her mother, even after she died.
This was a great novel to sit back and relax to and read. I recommend this great book to readers.

One Night with a Rake ARC
One Night with a Rake
AUTHOR'S Connie Mason and Mia Marlowe.PUBLISH DATE JUNE 2013
COPY PROVIDED BY Sourcebooks Casablanca.
"THANK YOU."
~SUMMARY~
Mason and Marlowe’s fast-paced second Royal Rakes romance (after Waking Up with a Rake) features a progressive heiress and a jaded nobleman. In Regency England, the Duke of Cambridge wants to marry quickly, hoping to father the next heir to the throne. His enemies blackmail Lord Nathaniel Colton into agreeing to deflower Cambridge’s potential bride, Lady Georgette—the daughter of the Marquis of Yorkingham and sister of Nate’s deceased fiancĂ©e. Georgette often travels to the seediest parts of London to help prostitutes leave their sordid lifestyles, so Nate offers to be her protector; proximity results in romantic trysts that lead her down the path of ruin and him closer to realizing that he has true feelings for her. Mystery simmers alongside the romance as Nate and Georgette seek a killer while contemplating a future together. Passionate interludes and scintillating twists and turns will entice historical fans.
