Scoundrel In My Dreams: The Runaway Brides Review

I would just like to start out saying that I haven't read the other two books that go with this series. In the future I might read them because I really did enjoy the premise behind the series even if it was a little out there. When I first read the story I was a little confused by what was going on. Just an fyi it starts with a story and then goes into the future, but then goes back in time and then goes in the future four years later....see why I was confused. Just keep reading and all the back and forth will make sense.
Jack and Laurel well they have an interesting back story. Jack is "in love" with Laurel's sister and Jack had to leave while they were courting because of war. He comes back and Laurel sleeps with him to soothe his heartache over the loss of his cousin who died. When Jack wakes up he think that he slept with Amy instead of Laurel and goes and talks to her father for her hand in marriage. He comes to find out that Amy has moved on to bigger and better things and doesn't want to marry him. He leaves and doesn't come back for four years when he gets a letter from his friend telling him to come home.
Laurel tries to get Melody back from Jack and he locks her in an attic...I know.....seriously who does that!!! This is one of the things I mean by out there. I still liked the story. Jack is an interesting character he isn't charming and doesn't know exactly what to say he struggles...a lot. You are really able to see his and Laurels growth throughout the book and that is something I enjoy in any romance novel. It is like you are on the side lines to their romance. I don't want to say much else because I don't want to give away the rest of the story. Anyway, Melody is seriously adorable and I wish that if I were to have a child she would be just as cute, but I am not going to get my hopes up.
I use to be a nanny to an adorable little girl. Melody made me think of her and what a blessing children are and how they really have the power to open people's hearts.

Scoundrel In My Dreams: The Runaway Brides Overview

The child is his: Jack, or rather, Lord John Redgrave knows it the instant he glimpses the blue-eyed girl who was abandoned on the steps of his gentleman's club. Her mother came to his room one dark night more than three years ago--and spurned his proposal the very next day. But when Jack visits Amaryllis Clarke to demand an explanation, he receives the shock of his life. For it wasn't proud, worldly Amaryllis with whom he spent that soul-stirring night. It was her infatuated younger sister, Laurel.Laurel was only seventeen when she gave her innocence to Jack--and paid a steep price. She might be overjoyed about her reunion with little Melody, but Laurel won't surrender to her desires again. Jack, meanwhile, has no wish to give up the daughter he never knew he had. Nor will he part with the sensual woman who makes him feel alive with longing. He intends to use any means possible to convince Laurel to stay. After all, all's fair in matters of seduction--especially to a scoundrel in love...

Devil In My Bed: The Runaway Brides Review

Celeste Bradley has a new historical romance series called The Runaway Brides. The first book, Devil in My Bed is so unrealistic and loopy. There is that "big misunderstanding" plot device and a cute little toddler who takes up many of the scenes she is in that may annoy. If you like your villains, who remind you of those old fashioned ones that twirl their mustaches and tie the poor woman to the railroad tracks, give this one a go.
Aidan de Quincy has never gotten over the widow he had a passionate, all consuming love affair with. Madeleine Chandler leaves him when he expresses his desire to marry her. Because Madeleine just wanted him for sex and not his name, he becomes bitter and heartbroken. How dare the woman blow his mind and his body with wonderful bed play and run away from him because he wanted to marry her Now three years later he still cannot forget the one woman who he gave his heart to, or rather the woman he is obsessed with. But this is quite alright because Aidan is the hero. While he is at the Brown's Club for Distinguished Gentlemen, he notices a small child named Melody who is only three years old. Melody was left there by her mother who can't support her anymore. Aidan knows this poor child's father is not part of the club because most of the men are well past their prime to have a child. Aidan has no choice but to take care of this little girl until he can figure out who her father is.
Madeleine had to end her affair with Aidan because she is hiding from her husband who is an abusive psychopath. She pretends to be a widow and has kept hidden for three years. But the jig is up because a friend of her husband has spotted her. Aidan finds her once again and rescues her because he comes to the conclusion that she is Melody's mother. He hides Madeline in his rooms. For some reason Madeleine doesn't tell Aidan that he is mistaken, but he thinks she is a lying wench anyway, so what would be the point? Even though he thinks Madeleine is a lying, deceitful woman who broke his poor heart, he will get to the bottom of this so they can finally be together.
Madeleine's psycho husband figures out she is in London and will make her pay. All she wants is her freedom and a future with Aidan and little Melody, but her lies and deceit have become too much to keep under control.
Devil in My Bed has some moments of comedic relief that are bound to make you groan more than laugh. I will say that Aidan and Madeleine are crazy for each other and there is one scene where they are playing hide and seek with Melody and hide in the wardrobe. Aidan's hands go a wandering and Madeleine combusts into a puddle of mushy lust. Watching Aidan and Sir Colin Lambert, who also resides at the club, figure out how to take care of Melody is quite hilarious. These two reminded me of the movie, Three Men and a Baby.
I guess you could say this a screwball regency romp. The out of the blue scenes that are dark and full of tension come out of left field and just don't fit. And again, the situation Aidan places himself in with Madeleine and Melody is a bit unbelievable. You will have to suspend your belief because the majority of the story is a bit fantastical. Fans of Celeste Bradley know what they are getting and if you have enjoyed her past work, I think you will feel the same way with Devil in My Bed.
