While she has never revealed the details of her miserable marriage, she spent most of her time as far away from her husband as possible – drinking, driving fast, smoking, and spending money - until her husband found her in bed with Aidan Carr, the Duke of Trathen. Julia, the Baroness Yardley, has finally been granted a divorce from the man to whom her parents basically sold her after her scandalous and disastrous affair with a penniless but handsome poet and political radical. Structurally, I feel that Scandal of the Year suffers from the same pacing problems that the previous book does, but emotionally, I find the romance more satisfying. Although their match-up was anticipated by the first book, they are, in many ways, an unlikely couple, and, in my opinion, engaging and compelling.
