Scandal in the Wind by KT Grant

Summary:
Lily Odell was the belle of Charleston, South Carolina high society until her husband, Beau, walked out on her after believing she’d been unfaithful to him. Lily has always been devoted to Beau, although she has kept a dark secret concerning her relationship with her childhood girlfriend. Now Lily has been ostracized because of the gossip and lies and has no one to turn to for help.

Charleston’s most popular brothel madam, Mrs. Rose Ware, lives her life on her own terms and answers to no one. When she discovers Beau abandoned Lily and has thrown her out on the street, Rose takes Lily in until she can get back on her feet. Rose has always been attracted to the spirited and beautiful Lily, but kept her feelings to herself because of her wanton reputation and her past with Beau. Now that Beau’s out of the picture, she might have a chance to seduce the heartbroken Lily.

Lily wants revenge against Beau, and Rose is more than willing to help her. Soon both women come up with a plan, one that will scandalize Charleston, and expose a forbidden passion between a brothel madam and a genteel Southern lady.

Reviewer: Jasmine
I really liked Scandal in the Wind, because it is a very unusual love story between a high-society beauty, Lily Odell and Charleston’s most popular brothel madam, Rose Ware.

Lily is abandoned by her husband, Beau, when he thinks she has been unfaithful. She has been ostracized by the lies and has no resources, and she keeps a dark secret about her relationship with her childhood girlfriend.

When Rose discovers Beau abandoned Lily and has thrown her out on the street, she takes Lily in because Rose has always been in love with her.

Lily and Rose's scenes and dialogues are very good, and the sexual encounters throughout the book have a lot of heat and fire.

But the development of the story does not quite feel right to me. I would have expected more depth in the development of the story ... But the author's style is easy to follow. I will give it 3.5 stars, it is worth reading.
