Eluding her chaperone, Lady Emma Watson dons a simple maid's outfit and sets out to discover London during celebrations of the Waterloo victory. Just when Emma thinks it's time to return home, she encounters a dangerously sexy tradesman.
A veteran of the Peninsula campaign, Jack Howard, Viscount St. Albans, may be simply dressed, however he is by no means a tradesman. But when he meets the lovely Lady Emma clad as a housemaid, he all too willingly plays along. Seduced by her snow-white skin and dazzling features, Jack quickly discovers he'll do anything to make sure this game of disguises never ends.

I really enjoyed this story! Love the troops with disguising 😁 And already was planning to give 5 stars, but the end was somewhat a bit disappointing 🤔

***Caution: Contains some spoilers***
A Lady in Disguise is billed as a Historical Romance but there is also some suspense involved. I really wanted to like this book but it seemed rather long and drawn out. The chemistry of the two main characters seems to fizzle out part way through. The subplot with the previous suitor/next door neighbor leads almost nowhere. I kept expecting things to get dicey but the author neatly wraps it up at the end in one page.
I received this book from eBook Discovery in exchange for an honest review. -

Great historical romance. The characters just flowed right off the pages and felt like you were right there feeling everything.
