In book 2 of "The Bliss Society" "Courting Scandal" we find Amanda Hayworth, still writing her gossip column. She takes great pleasure in destroying others with her words. She refers to Isabel Lawrence as a klutzy, babbling young lady that has caught the eye of Jordon Lenox. Isabel questions why Jordon would want to marry her. He is concerned with the curse that affects all the men in his family. Cecily, wife of Viscount Byford is ready to return to her father in the United States. Their marriage has appeared to be on the rocks for quite some time and that's more news for the Gossip Rag. Byford enlists the aid of the Bliss Society to help him save his marriage. Cecily's father is going after Ms. Hayworth tooth and nail. He wasn't expecting things to backfire on him. Can these two marriages survive? Will the curse show up in Jordon? Will Byford with the help of The Bliss Society, fall in love with his wife? Will she decide to stay or leave with her father? Will Amanda relent some of her gossipy ways?
There are a lot of side plots to this book. They are all connected by gossipy Amanda Hayworth. The plot is interesting but a little busy. To fully understand some of the situations in Book 2 of "The Bliss Society" Courting Scandal, one really needs to read book 1 "More Than A Wife, although it can be read as a stand-alone. This was just as enjoyable as Book 1 and I am hoping that there will be a book 3 out. I always like to point out when there is some sensuous parts to a book so no one would be offended and this book gas a few. For the most part the book is cleaning written and an enjoyable read.
