Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. The Rake is the story of misunderstanding, miscommunication, redemption, and tenacity. Tristan was a young, stupid, and reckless young man who badly hurt Georgiana six years earlier when he seemed to seduce her into falling in love with him simply to win a wager. Once she learned of the wager she left him, only to spend the next six years hating him and tormenting him at every opportunity. Now, she has made plans to teach Tristan a lesson about how to properly treat a lady, and she plans to do this by seducing him into falling in love with her, only to leave him heart broken in the same way that he did to her so many years earlier.
But, it turns out, things are not quite as she thinks they are. Tristan's motives six years earlier were not quite as nefarious as Georgie imagined, and it turns out that despite the tension that follows them when they meet, Tristan actually likes her quite a bit That's going to throw a giant wrench in her plans to teach him a lesson. This is the first book I have read by Suzanne Enoch, and I really enjoyed her writing.
She manages to tell an engaging, sometimes funny, sometimes heart pounding, and occasionally touching story of two people who both have a few things to learn about how to trust and how to love each other. I really loved the hero, Tristan. He has obviously overcome some pretty huge flaws from his youth.
The book doesn't really dwell much on those flaws, but it does show a man who has learned from his mistakes and has the strength to fight to prove his redemption to those he loves. Georgie could be a bit irritating at times when it seemed clear to EVERYONE that she was in love with Tristan, but she still held on to her lack of trust and inability to truly forgive him for his past deeds. However, having said that, I think that the emotional trauma that she faced because of Tristan's wager, whether or not he truly meant to hurt her, gives her the right to hold a pretty large grudge, in my opinion.
The secondary characters in this story, especially Tristan's family, were wonderful. I am especially excited to read Robert's story and see how he comes to overcome the trauma that occurred to him in a French prison. That issue was barely scratched in this story, but I have a feeling that it will be an amazing story to read eventually.
After Georgie and Tristan decide that they aren't going to fight these feelings for each other, I was so glad to see them talk to each other about the bad situations they were facing rather than keeping it to themselves in order to "protect" the other from being hurt It allowed the two of them to solve their problems together.
This is your fairly typical regency romance. Something keeps them apart. There is nothing highly original in this story, but it is told in such a sweet and fun way that it makes it worth the read. I truly enjoyed it. The latter two books in the Lessons in Love trilogy are such gems that it's hard to believe this book was written by the same author. I actually rather liked Tristan. Since his past tryst with Georgiana, he clearly had changed and matured a lot. She was irrational and impulsive and acted like a petulant child through the majority of the story.

There was also that scene toward the end of the book in which Tristan and Georgiana broke into the villain's house and became so aroused listening to the girl having sex with her lover that they just couldn't keep their hands to themselves and were caught fondling each other. Wow, such a cute and romantic scene. I have enjoyed several of Enoch's books, this is not my favorite. It started slowly and I initially didn't like either the H or h. He had treated her callously in the past, and she was bitter, with good reason.
Neither of them seemed able to communicate or recognize anything good about each other. I adored the time that we spent with Tristan's family. They were excellent side characters and I loved that they were all so different. They felt like a real family and I loved that.
Runt was adorable, especially when he talked about "rolling," but my heart broke for Bit. This book never lagged. Tristan and Georgiana's interactions popped and kept me turning the pages. I am a fan of clever banter, and this book had it in spades. The humor made me giggle and I enjoyed the sense of fun this book had. The only thing that really kept this from being a straight 5 star book for me was Amelia.
I felt that she didn't have enough depth and that she was a bit of caricature. Also, although a scandalous scene at the end was funny, it felt a bit too silly and out of place. Although this book isn't terribly unique or cutting edge, it's still one that makes me smile each and every time I read it. It's a lighter book, but not quite Julia Quinn light. Just don't go in expecting something terribly angsty while they resolve their differences. View all 10 comments.

This could easily have been a great book for me: But then there's Georgiana annoying tendency to jump to conclusions and run away to be fair, she has her reasons and she does get better towards the end, but there were just too many misunderstandings and people hurting each other out of a stupid refusal to have an honest conversation with each other for me , the girl the hero originally intended to marry to fix his money problems turned into a complete psycho view spoiler [seriously, she hires a coach to take her to his house in the dead of night, marches in, and just strips naked to compromise herself; she then steals something from the hero and blackmails him into marriage hide spoiler ] , and then there was that huge WTF???
I can't even bring myself to type it. Let's just say that they're about to have sex while two strangers are having sex in the same room View all 6 comments. Aug 19, Eastofoz rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: This book is so good! There are some great twists and turns and sex in some very unexpected places—refreshing for a regency! The additional Shakespearean verse at the start of each chapter are excellent additions and the ending just leaves with you with the biggest smile on your face and your heart skipping a little beat: A really sweet and slightly humorous romance without anything extraordinary but very well written.
It's the story of Tristan and Georgianna who have a past; a past only the two of them know about and enmity is all that remains after years. But now Georgianna decides to teach him a lesson about how a gentleman should really behave; break his heart in the process and leave him as he did with her years ago.
Of course trying to win his love means she has to be friendlier with him and charm him. Tr A really sweet and slightly humorous romance without anything extraordinary but very well written. Tristan is not stupid to not realize that Georgianna is up to something, unfortunately he cannot figure exactly what.
He seizes this opportunity to ask her forgiveness for what he did all those years ago -got a kiss from her and not only that just to win a bet- and hopes she might be giving him another chance which he's determined not to screw up. He also has to convince Georgianna that he's changed and he's not after her money alone. In the middle of this fray, comes a wealthy heiress that Tristan had courted before Georgianna attracted his attention once more.
Amanda wants Tristan's title and he needs her money to say his family from ruin; she's not going to let Georgianna steal her prospective husband, when it becomes clear that Georgianna has more than lesson in her mind where Tristan is concerned. This leads to a few fast paced chapters near the end and some humorous situations. Nice, sweet romance which I really enjoyed reading and would recommend to anyone wanting a light, easy read.
However, I liked the other two of the trilogy better than this one.

He will fall in love with her and she will rip his heart out and stomp on it so to speak.

It will be a humbling experience that will forever alter his callous treatment of the fairer sex. However, plans go horribly awry; and, as most comfort zone romances go, the storyline is simply that of "falling in love" Jan 24, Susanne rated it it was amazing Recommended to Susanne by: Witty, charming, lovely and sweet. Suzanne Enoch is becoming one of my favorite authors! She writes books of quality. The language is great and engaging. I could really feel myself walking around the streets and going to fancy parties in regency London. I could feel the grass and the sunshine.
The story about Tristan and Georgiana was everything I enjoy in a romance! It was not at all what I expected from the blurb, but much more amazing. The only thing missing was an epilogue. It one of those books that makes you remember why you fell in love with reading in the first place. Thank you Karen for a wonderful recommendation! View all 11 comments. Jun 01, Kimberly Carrington-Fox rated it liked it Shelves: Em segundo lugar, vamos a resenha: E a pobre debutante inocente, caiu perfeitamente na armadilha orquestrada.
Started off so well, witty fun dialogue and interaction between the two characters. But good golly the middle and ending of the book was like wading through molasses in winter. The heroine's trust issues with the hero appear and then reappear and reappear and reappear. Look lady, maybe instead of flipping the freak out immediately when a stranger relays some info you're upset to hear, perhaps instead, take a breathe and ask your dude "wtf, do you know what this is about?
This should have been a novella. I was so meh towards the middle and end I sped-read. View all 5 comments. Nov 07, Viri rated it really liked it. Georgiana and Tristan seemed very fun and interesting in the latter books in this series, but strangely enough their own book fell terribly short. It had its great moments, because their backstory is actually interesting, and matters of trust always make for good romance stories. And the side-characters, Georgiana's friends and Tristans family are lovely. Unfortunately one third of the plot hinged on Georgie's plan to make Tristan fall in love with her and then break his heart, Very strange book.
Unfortunately one third of the plot hinged on Georgie's plan to make Tristan fall in love with her and then break his heart, and anyone who has ever read a romance novel knows that always comes back to bite you in the ass. So that part was so terribly predictable. And then there was Amelia, the other woman in the equation. For some reason, she turned into some wanton evil masterbrain, and it totally didn't work. It was so terribly over the top. Everything about the story that wasn't related to Amelia or to Georgie's lesson was actually quite good, and I enjoyed those parts a lot - I really loved their interactions and how their relationship developed there.
Unfortunately that just wasn't enough. Some chapters I sped through because they were so engaging and lovely. And then other parts dragged and dragged and dragged so that I actually put down the book for several days. In the end I had to force myself to finish this, even when the ending had some flares of greatness. It just wasn't enough. Now that I've read this entire trilogy, I'm not sure if Enoch is the author for me. I've yet to read a book from her that doesn't drag at some point or has totally non-important plot developments.
She does have interesting ideas for characters and storylines, she just never seems to have enough for a complete book. View all 4 comments. Como no he conectado mucho con ninguno de los dos, ha sido una lectura agradable, pero no de las que dejan huella. Jun 11, Sangria rated it really liked it Shelves: Honestly, I think this book should of been called The Wager. I got a bit of whiplash in this romance, however in the end it was an enjoyable enemies to lovers historical rom-com in my mind.
Our Lord Dare, was a rotten man apparently at one time, and took her innocence in a wager. Our fine Lady decides to teach him a lesson to return the favor of hurting her, apparently he did that on a bet, but never let it become public because he was shamed by what he did. Lord Dare is broke, must marry, Lady Georgiana wealthy. But, she has a better plan. Make him fall for her and leave him, like he once did her. As she gets to know a new Tristan, we see his immense love for his 4 brothers and his elderly Aunts The second half of the book is eons more enjoyable In the end though, I found myself laughing thru their antics several times.
Jul 25, Ilze rated it did not like it Shelves: This might have been a 3 or 4 star rating up to the point where an 18 year-old debutante tries to seduce the hero in his own bed, after sneaking undetected out of her own house, at 2 in the morning, by herself, finding a hackney cab and simply walking into the hero's house and finding his bedroom in a mansion of 20 bedrooms, in total darkness. I just couldn't buy into that scene at all.
After that it went pretty much downhill, and the gratuitous and trashy sex scenes near the end, especially the This might have been a 3 or 4 star rating up to the point where an 18 year-old debutante tries to seduce the hero in his own bed, after sneaking undetected out of her own house, at 2 in the morning, by herself, finding a hackney cab and simply walking into the hero's house and finding his bedroom in a mansion of 20 bedrooms, in total darkness.
After that it went pretty much downhill, and the gratuitous and trashy sex scenes near the end, especially the voyeur scene in the aforementioned debutante's bedroom, were the final nails in the coffin for me. Aug 11, Julie rated it it was amazing. Ok, this one was my first by Suzanne Enoch and all I can say is how did I go so long with out reading her? They were funny without being over dramatic and stupid.
And I loved the fighting between them was for something that actually happened and not just some stupid big misunderstanding that could be fixed with a simple conversation. Loved the ending, so sweet without being cloying or syru Ok, this one was my first by Suzanne Enoch and all I can say is how did I go so long with out reading her? Loved the ending, so sweet without being cloying or syrupy. Now must go read the next one!! I enjoyed Georgiana and Dare quite a bit although I wasn't expecting to. The blackmail plot I could have done without. Apr 28, Rosie Read rated it liked it Shelves: I actually thought the novel had a lot of potential and it certainly started off well.
Six years after Viscount Dare seduces Georgiana she decides to make him the object of her lessons in chivalry. The whole ton knows of the animosity between Georgiana and Dare and there are plenty of opportunities for witty barbed exchanges between the two. However, for some reason I felt a bit disappointed with the direction of the plot.
Some details were adorably sweet fans is all I shall say and others had I actually thought the novel had a lot of potential and it certainly started off well. Some details were adorably sweet fans is all I shall say and others had no anchor at all. Part of Georgiana's plot involves her moving into Dare's family home, which with its rag-tag collection of relatives is an enjoyable side to the novel I guarantee you'll fall for reclusive war hero 'Bit' and the youngest brother, Edward and Georgiana's friends and relatives all feature in Enoch's novels either previously in the case of her cousin and later for her two friends who make up the following two novels of the lessons in love trilogy.
On that point however, I found it strange that considering their appearance in the next two novels we learnt very little of Georgiana's friends, especially Evie whose book is the second in the series.

View all 7 comments. May 19, Ursula rated it liked it Shelves: The rake in this story, Dare, took the h's virginity when she was 18 linked to a wager.
The h, Georgiana, found out about the wager and refused to have anything more to do with him. He didn't tell anyone about it, which was nice, I guess, and does his usual screwing around etc. With me so far? Some years later she decides to get even, revenge is a dish best served cold taken to extremes , scheming to have him fall in love with her so she can jilt him. Of The rake in this story, Dare, took the h's virginity when she was 18 linked to a wager. Of course, she falls in love with him and the feeling is reciprocated. Cue some evil machinations from a would-be wife to Drake, some more sex between Drake and Georgiana and then their HEA.
Firstly, I don't believe it would have been acceptable to take the virginity of a member of the upper classes her Auntie is a Duchess and not have to marry her. Secondly, I don't believe said member would have compromised herself so thoroughly. Georgiana was so stressed about being ruined- well, don't sleep with the guy! It was just too unrealistic for its time for me. He seemed to suddenly only have thoughts and feelings for her. Where were these feelings for the last 6 years? I just didn't buy the whole trope. Modern tale dressed in period costume.
It wasn't awful, just not great. Sep 27, Rachmi rated it liked it Shelves: This is my first Enoch books, I'm happy it's quite good I enjoyed it. I especially really liked Tristan and Georgiana's banter. It's funny and also adorable.
