Five well-bred sisters, one sensational scandal. Now the Duke of Marymount's daughter Ida is about to find love in the most unconventional way...

It was easy for society to overlook Lady Ida Howlett; they found her bookish, opinionated, and off the marriage mart. But little did they know that behind a calm exterior beats the heart of an adventuress, one who, determined to discover her runaway sister's whereabouts, steals a carriage and sets off on a daring mission. Then she discovers she's not alone! Bennett, Lord Carson, is inside, and he refuses to leave.

Lord Carson's plans had always been to find a soft, gentle wife who would run his home and raise his children. Still, he makes a bargain with Ida—he won't desert her during her mad adventure. He'll make sure she's safe, and then find a suitable lady to fall in love with. But when rules (and garments) become discarded during this long, intimate journey, it's soon clear that this surprisingly daring lady is the woman he's needed all along.

I received The Lady is Daring for free. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

While Lady is Daring is the third novel in the Duke’s Daughters series, it is my first read by Megan Frampton. It will certainly not be the last! This was an exciting adventure in romance with a twist of family loyalty.

Bennett, Lord Carson, has been thrown at one or another Howlett sister throughout the series. One married his brother, another his best friend. Bennett has sworn he won’t be caught by another Carson Hunter. He never thought at all about the youngest Howlett sister, Ida, until he sat with her at tea one afternoon. While she was pleasant enough, she wasn’t the quite and genteel wife he was looking for.

Ida didn’t want a husband of her own. Certainly not one who had been linked to two of her older sisters. All she wants is to find her sister, Della, and Della’s illegitimate daughter and bring them home. While Ida is intelligent in some ways, she is rather incompetent in others. A rash decision leads her on a journey to find her missing family with Bennett along for the ride.

The development of Ida and Bennett’s romance as they were on the road was as curved and bumpy as the travel itself. They both agree from the very beginning they would not suit, but continue to get along famously and have a smoldering attraction that just can’t be denied. I love Ida and Bennett and hope they will be a big part of the series as it continues.

Three sister’s down, two to go! I’m excited to go back and read the first two books in the series so I can be all caught up for the next Howlett sisters adventure.
