Part of "Bedwyn Saga" series

In "Slightly Dangerous," Mary Balogh weaves a captivating tale of love, honor, and self-discovery set against the backdrop of Regency-era England. The novel, first published in 1992, tells the story of Wulfric Bedwyn, the Duke of Bewcastle, and Judith Law, a young woman who has spent her life hiding from the world due to a disfiguring scar. Wulfric, known for his cold and aloof demeanor, is drawn to Judith's quiet strength and inner beauty, while Judith finds in Wulfric a man who sees past her scar to the woman within. However, their love is threatened by societal expectations, family obligations, and their own personal demons. Balogh's writing is rich and evocative, bringing to life the opulent world of the Regency aristocracy and the struggles of those who exist on its fringes. She skillfully explores themes of identity, self-worth, and the true meaning of love, while also delivering a deliciously romantic love story. The novel is the fifth in Balogh's beloved "Bedwyn Saga," but can be read as a standalone. It is a must-read for fans of historical romance, and for anyone who appreciates a well-crafted story of love and redemption. In "Slightly Dangerous," Balogh has created a timeless tale that will resonate with readers long after they have turned the final page. It is a testament to the power of love to heal even the deepest wounds, and a reminder that true beauty lies within. Overall, "Slightly Dangerous" is a captivating and deeply moving novel that is not to be missed.
