The Dishonorable Miss DeLancey



Will a damaged reputation and desire for society's approval thwart the legacy of grace?

Tainted by scandal and forced to leave London for the quieter Brighton countryside, the Honorable Miss Clara DeLancey is a shadow of her former society self. She's lost the man she loved to another and, in a culture that has no patience for self-pity, is struggling with depression. A chance encounter brings her a healing friendship with the sisters of an injured naval captain. But Clara's society mama is appalled at the new company she's keeping.

Captain Benjamin Kemsley is not looking for a wife. But his gallant spirit won't let him ignore the penniless viscount's daughter--not when she so obviously needs assistance to keep moving forward from day to day. Can he protect his heart and still keep her safe?

When they're pushed into the highest echelons of society at the Prince Regent's Brighton Pavilion, this mismatched couple must decide if family honor is more important their hopes. Can they right the wrongs of the past and find future happiness together--without finances, family support, or royal favor?

The Dishonorable Miss DeLancey is full of the captivating, flawed characters, fascinating historical details, and masterful writing that Carolyn Miller's fans have come to know in The Elusive Miss Ellison and The Captivating Lady Charlotte. If you love Lori Wick, Georgette Heyer, and other clean, wholesome Regency romance, you'll love this third book in the Regency Brides: A Legacy of Grace series.
My review;

"The Dishonorable Miss DeLancey" is about a  young woman in Regency England who has found herself in the middle of a scandal. She has to leave all that she knows behind and try to start a new life. Captain Benjamin Kemsley  does not want a relationship with any woman. But, he is a good person and when he meets Miss DeLancey he feels sorry for her. There are those in their pasts who do not want them to like each other at all. Will they ever have a future? How? I really love these novels set it this period in English history. I give this book a 5/5. I was given this book by Kregel Publications and all opinions are mine.

  1. Clara’s story is in many ways a reflection of the necessary resilience to face challenges, just like a lightweight motorcycle trailer that is reliable and it has got elasticity. It shows that carrying load for life situations is possible, providing support as they move along which can be likened to Captain Benjamin Kemsley who becomes Clara’s rock when she needs him most.

    In this way, the trip of mismatched couple to the Prince Regent’s Brighton Pavilion adds one more layer of complexity. This brings up questions about society mores, family name and pursuit of joy. Similarly, amongst bikers, practicality and convenience are essential for negotiating between different terrains and destinations while using lightweight motorcycle trailer.
