Historical Romance
From Goodreads:
"The 2nd in the Cynster Sisters duo, #1 New York Times
bestselling author Stephanie Laurens thrills with this fantastic tale of a
Cynster who'll stop at nothing for love.
Lady Mary has been waiting years for this opportunity. Now that her sister has thrown off her spinster ways and become betrothed, it's finally Mary's chance for true love. She knows exactly who she wants --and it's not someone as wild, unmanageable, and sinfully seductive as Ryder Cavanaugh.
Ryder Cavanaugh, Marquess of Raventhorne, had never met a woman who wouldn't happily fall at his feet--or into his bed...until Lady Mary Cynster. But Ryder has made some decisions about his life and he'll only succeed at being the man he wants to be with Mary by his side. And convincing her of that fact is just the kind of challenge he thrills at."
While it is not a requirement that you follow the Cynster
books I do think The Taming of Ryder Cavanaugh would be more enjoyable if you
were a fan of the series. Many of
the characters from previous books are scattered through out the story. In some ways they are a distraction if
you do not know their history. It
makes it difficult to recommend this as a stand-alone although it can be read
as one.
Both of the main characters are well written. Lady Mary always knows what she wants
and does not hesitate to go after it.
. Ryder Cavanaugh is the
same. At the first of the story
they are at cross-purposes but that changes. Once they come together the story changes. Now there is danger thrown into the
story. All of the elements add up
to a easy enjoyable light read.
Avon published The Taming of Ryder Cavanaugh by Stephanie
Laurens in 2013.
