The Absolutely Positively Worst Man in England, Scotland and Wales by Anne Stuart was a delightful treat to read. The hero Christopher St. James Constant, 3rd Earl of Adderley, truly is.just that bad, which made it all the more enjoyable when he received his comeuppance from the heroine Byrony Marton. Kit Adderley wins a large sum of cards from George Latherby, and George, unable to pay, asks Kit to wait until he marries as his bride has a large dowry. Bored and not interested in waiting a few weeks for the money he’s owed Kit suggests that they just kidnap the bride to be and head off to Scotland. Thoroughly soused at this point, they mess up and kidnap not only the Byrony but her cousin as well, and Kit finds himself intrigued and enchanted by the supposed antidote of a bride to be. I’ve always had a soft spot for the villainous hero, and Kit makes a spectacular one. Quite Steamy. Publishing Date: August 15, 2020.

Kit Adderley is the worst man in England, a bored libertine who'll do anything to entertain himself, including kidnapping the strong-minded, freckled dab of a girl promised to his partner in crime. Bryony Marton is trapped in a quiet life and looking for escape, when her awful fiance's best friend inadvertently offers it. Everything would be fine if he hasn't kidnapped her pretty young cousin as well. And now there's a handsome young Bow Street Runner chasing them...! On the road, Bryony embraces her freedom, and she's more than willing to embrace her captor, a man who kicks over convention and isn't nearly as bad as he and the rest of the world think he is, but now she has a new problem: how to convince the worst man in England, Scotland and Wales that he's the best man for her?

Bryony only accepted the proposal from the drunken friend because she was compromised and doesn't really intend to go through with the wedding. She's more concerned with rescuing her cousin before she's also compromised. But Kit is making the whole rescue thing pretty difficult.
Ms. Stuart has a formula: her hero is a bad alpha male, the heroine is plain but spunky (she usually gets prettier as the book goes on), and there's a secondary romance involving another couple. I rely on her characterizations to differentiate the stories and this one was pretty good. Kit is a pretty good hero but I really liked Bryony. She's practical and exactly what Kit needs. The secondary romance between the cousin and the Bow Street runner sent to save the girls was also better than some in her other books. Despite the title, I enjoyed this story a lot. ( )
