Lady Tabitha Pemberton wants nothing more than to enjoy her first season without becoming attached, but when Lady X writes of a forbidden tryst between Tabitha and Colin Brooks, the earl of Harcourt, everything changes. Now Tabitha must choose between her reputation and her desire to remain unattached.
One Moonlit Tryst was originally released as part of a limited edition boxset titled It Started with a Whisper. But that boxset is no longer available. This is a short novella and a delight to read. I enjoyed the character’s development and the pace of the story. I will be searching out more of Ms Mariel’s stories. I highly recommend this clean romance.
I am just caught so into this story. I loved it. Would have liked it to be longer. It is very short. True to its time period.
Well written with great story line and plot. Likeable characters who all are well described and likeable. I like the bet and how it develops.
The mix of secrets, humour, drama, love and twists are what makes it worth the read.
Sweet Story in a Tidy Little Package
This story was well-written and flowed well. The characters were likable, and the conflict quickly resolved for a happy ending. A good, light read if you have a little time for a short escape.

What a great read. Very enjoyable. You have twin sisters dating two gentlemen. One is considered a rake and one of his past indiscretions comes to light it puts a wrench in the relationship of one couple. It is exciting, enjoyable, emotional, suspenseful and so much more. I was given a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
This short charmer was a fun read. Not just one rogue in this one but two who will find fate has something in store for them and their names are Pricilla and Tabitha. Fate has some bumps waiting for our group, but that is what makes this a fun book to read. I am a real fan of Ms. Mariel her writing always has a touch of magic with entertaining characters and storylines. Tabitha and her rabbit, the interaction between the sisters oh, and our wonderful Lady X and let’s not forget the meeting in Hyde Park all these scenes make up this marvelous story. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.
Reginald St. John, Viscount Lowell bet his friend Colin Brooks, Earl of Harcourt a thousand pounds that he wouldn’t be able to charm Tabitha Pemberton by season’s end. Colin courts her to achieve this and in the process ends up ruining her and having to offer her marriage. But his rakish ways and unfortunate choices catch up with him and makes Tabitha question his claims of faithfulness and love. Short instant love romance story.
When Colin Brooks, Earl of Harcourt, wagers Reginald St. John that he can kiss Lady Tabitha Pemberton, he doesn’t expect to be caught, but he was. Once engaged to Tabitha, he spends time with her and they come to love each other. They discover that falling in love is the easy part. Colin has the reputation of being a rake, and when one of his past indiscretions comes to light, it could spell the end of his relationship with Tabitha. Both are heartbroken. Can Tabitha learn to trust him? Can Colin prove that he has changed and is worthy of her love?
There are actually two romances in this sweet story. Twins Tabitha and Priscilla Pemberton meet and become betrothed to Colin and Reginald. The girls have strong personalities and a wonderful relationship. Colin and Reginald are rather typical rakes until they meet the girls when, of course, they become perfect gentlemen. All four characters are likeable. You want things to work out for them.
Stevie Zimmerman is an excellent reader and made this story a quick and enjoyable listen.
