Foxing the Geese by Janet Woods

There is definitely a Trigger Warning for this book.

I hadn't read this author before so I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt. And this was an okay book. Vivienne was a strong character who knew her mind and I mostly liked her although she did fall in love with... well... Yeah. Alex was a pretty big asshat. He got better at the end. Mostly.
Foxing the Geese by Janet WoodsVivienne Fox has inherited a fortune. Lord Alex LeSayres needs a fortune. But he doesn't know that she has a fortune and seems to be falling in love. The two met when they were younger and Alex dumps her in a pig sty. Now he's going to help lend her some countenance during the Season and in return, he gets some time to pay back some of her father's debts.
The more I think about it, the more problems I have with this story (her uncle starts off as a menacing character but ends up benign for no good reason, Alex really is an asshat, etc.) but I had an overall good feeling reading this story so it ends up being a three-star for me.

Three stars
Book comes out April 1.
