Book of the Month: Infamous

June’s book of the month is specifically for fans of historical romcoms. If you haven’t read Lex Croucher’s Reputation, firstly you should go away and do that, and secondly you should get extra excited for their next book, Infamous. It’s not one you want to miss out on, trust me!

Sorry to anyone on the other side of the pond, though, as you’re going to have to wait until next March for this one (though, there are ways and means of getting hold of it…should you find yourselves (understandably) too impatient).

So, ready to be convinced? Read on!

22-year-old aspiring writer Edith ‘Eddie’ Miller and her best friend Rose have always done everything together-climbing trees, throwing grapes at boys, sneaking bottles of wine, practicing kissing . . .

But following their debutante ball Rose is suddenly talking about marriage, and Eddie is horrified.

When Eddie meets charming, renowned poet Nash Nicholson, he invites her to his crumbling Gothic estate in the countryside. The entourage of eccentric artists indulging in pure hedonism is exactly what Eddie needs in order to forget Rose and finish her novel.

But Eddie might discover the world of famous literary icons isn’t all poems and pleasure . . .
