Artfully Wicked by Virginia Taylor
The Earl of Langsdene is being lampooned in the daily press, but who is the cartoonist? After being depicted as fool and an oppressor of the poor for the past five years, he has given up his rakish ways and plans to take a wife. And yet, the cartoons of him continue to appear. Then at a ball, he spots Winsome Carsten, whose knowledge of art impressed him in the past.
For years Winsome has avoided the handsome earl. She certainly didn’t expect to meet him again. And now the persistent man wants her help to find a certain artist. Somehow, she needs to put him off the trail by fair means or foul. Although she cannot resist his wonderful kisses, she is determined to guard her heart. She will not fall in love with the man she has persisted in using as the foil for her artfully wicked humour.

This book was so full of humor. I loved the rapport between the Heroine and her mother. They played off each other so very well. Even her friends and the Hero shared in the humorous repartee throughout the book. The chemistry between the Hero and the Heroine was pretty hot. One could almost feel the sparks between them. The passion that flared whenever they were together was what every reader of a romance novel longs for. The only thing wrong with this book is how long it took the main characters to dance around the issue of getting together. There was a great deal of just talking about it and not enough actually doing anything about it. It became quite frustrating for the reader. There was drama and angst throughout the story, but mostly it was a romantic stroll through the main characters' lives with some reminiscing to the HEA. It was a sweet love story that touched the heart, allowed a few misty tears, and brought a whole lot of laughter to the reader. Definitely a Keeper for the Shelves.
