Kitty's review posted at Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews 
 What a deliciously entertaining book "A Wicked Way To Win An Earl" was. Expecting the usual Historical Romance, I was really surprised with the way this story unfolded. It definitely wasn't what I had expected. 
 Alec was a real ass throughout this story. He had his reasons for not wanting the woman who was the spitting image of the woman who brought scandal to his father to have any effect on his family, especially his brother Robyn. He would make sure she was ruined and made to go back to her little country home. 
 It's up to him to show everyone that she is only after the prestige of the Southerland name and money. But, what really made him an ass was that he refused to really look inside himself to see the real reason why he was keeping Robyn away from Delia, the real reason why he walked with her in the Rose Garden, the real reason why he was so frustrated. 
 Delia knew that Alec was playing a game with her, luring her into a trap. So, she decided that two could play the same game and they could figure out who the real loser is in the end. What she didn't count on was her feelings when she saw him with the woman who was rumored to become his betrothed (much to the dismay of his family). But, one wicked kiss, one night of pleasure and she knew that he won. It was time to return home to heal her heart. There is no way that the love that she felt for Alec would allow him to snub his nose at the Ton and proclaim his love for her especially when her own family even refused to acknowledge her existence. 
 I was pleasantly surprised throughout this story. Alec just irritated me right from the beginning of the book and Delia stole my heart. Together they played the game that had me grinning and waiting to see who was going to do what next. Who was going to one-up the other. In the end, I was thrilled that Alec knew what he finally wanted and went after it. 
 Anna Bradley really brought to life the differences between the privileged and the underprivileged in 1800's. She defined the line between classes and what can be expected when you become fodder for the gossips in the Ton. She also had me giggling, gasping and hoping that the ending would do this story justice. She did not, in any way, disappoint me. Her writing in this era was crisp and clean and she immersed you in the language and ways of the aristocrats of this time.
