When pressured into accepting a husband of her father's choosing, Lady Iona seeks out the notorious rake Lord Nathan Wynter for his help in learning how to stand up for herself.

While Iona is looking for adventure, Lord Nathan is doing his honest best to reform his ways in order to repair his reputation and his disastrous relationship with his family. Winning the very proper Lady Iona for a wife would go a long way to achieving that end.

However, the more he tries to protect Lady Iona from running headlong into disgrace, the more he grows to admire her daring spirit and unpredictable antics. Instead of returning her to the obedient world in which she was raised, he encourages her blossoming passions. Such a move is surely going to lead them both to ruin. But for love he is willing to risk everything.

Lady Iona is almost considered an old maid. When pressured by her father to marry she rebels. She seeks out a former friend, who has now turned into a scandalous rake, to learn to be more daring and unpredictable. Lord Nathan Wynter though wants to repair his reputation by marrying her. Can he keep her from a great scandal and win her heart at the same time?

Lady Iona is full of spit and fire and Lord Nathan is charmingly earnest. I kept on laughing throughout this story because of all the situations they get into. Their families and friends are funny too. I haven't been this amused by a book in a long time. The pace is wonderful and you don't want to walk away from it, especially in the middle with all the fast moving scenes. The ending was very, very satisfying and well worth the wait. Lady Iona's Rebellion is a definite must read for those that like historical romances.
