The Duke and Lady Scandal by Christy Carlyle

The Duke and Lady Scandal by Christy Carlyle is a new book out this month.  The book also introduces a new series called Princes of London.  The main characters are Alexandra Prince and Detective Inspector Benedict Drake.  

Alexandra Prince is the youngest of the Prince siblings.  Her parents and siblings are often out and about doing archeological digs, while she was often left behind. As an adult, she runs the Prince’s store with the selling of artifacts and other special items.  

While Alexandra was getting coffee one morning, she overheard three men speaking about how they were going to steal the crown jewels.  She then contacted Detective Inspector Benedict Drake and told him about what she overheard.  Meanwhile, things get a little twisted with other characters and various points of views. Alexandra and Benedict certainly have strong feelings for each other, but with so much going on they seem to be in everyone’s sights for questioning.  
The Duke and Lady Scandal is an interesting title that caught my attention although the characters are not part of the Upper Establishment, they are interesting, strong characters.  The Duke and Lady Scandal by Christy Carlyle is a great read!
