The Bad Luck Bride

Our Review

Lady Claire Cavensham is cursed. Three broken engagements have propelled Lady Claire further towards a depressing outlook of being single, doomed to live out her life with her aunt and uncle, the Duke and Duchess of Langham. When Alexander, the Marquess of Pembrook, comes to her rescue after her fourth disastrous broken engagement to Lord Paul, Claire agrees to become his wife, determined to live out her dream of having a loving, close family. The Lady Claire Curse will finally be broken.

Alexander Pembrooke has no love for Lord Paul, believing him to be the reason his sister, Alice, was now buried in the family crypt. When Lord Paul’s financial situation becomes shaky, Alexander sees his chance to exact revenge on the man who took away his sister. Lady Claire unknowingly is thrown into the middle of a vicious retribution and Alexander is balancing a very thin line as he starts to fall for the beautiful and mysterious Lady Claire.
