#AD Book Review: The Rake’s Enticing Proposal by Lara Temple

The Rake’s Enticing Proposal is the second instalment in the Sinful Sinclairs mini series, Charles Sinclair is a globetrotting  adventurer who visits Huxley Manor to sort out his late cousin’s affairs.  He meets Eleanor Walsh, a practical lady who wants to clear her family’s debt. He senses that she wants to escape her staid existence at the Manor.  Charles can offer her an exciting trip to Egypt, if she will agree to his shocking proposal.  They travel to Egypt to solve a mystery and find the missing box whilst the chemistry between them gets stronger all the time. 

The first part of the book dragged and could have been condensed without losing the flow of the storyline. The trip to Egypt was an enjoyable read, the storyline picked up and the descriptive scenes were an added bonus. This is an enjoyable, if you skim read the first few chapters, read with a slow burning romance/mystery element.

I received this novel from Mills & Boon via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review
