Determined to secure another London season without assistance from her new brother-in-law, Mary Alsworthy accepts a secret assignment from Lord Vaughn on behalf of the Pink Carnation: to infiltrate the ranks of the dreaded French spy, the Black Tulip, before he and his master can stage their planned invasion of England. Every spy has a weakness, and for the Black Tulip that weakness is black-haired women--his "petals" of the Tulip. A natural at the art of seduction, Mary easily catches the attention of the French spy, but Lord Vaughn never anticipates that his own heart will be caught as well.--From publisher description.

Review of 'The Seduction of the Crimson Rose' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

4/2/2021 - from what I remember, once upon a time when there were fewer Pink Carnation books, this one was my least favorite. Not to say I didn't necessarily like it, but just simply the least. However, perhaps because I'm older than I was back then, it feels like I came away from rereading it this time (well, listening to it) vastly appreciating Vaughn way more than I think I did then. So I think I can say I like it more than I did when I first read it.
