This Weeks Selection:
Earls Just Want to Have Fun by Shana Galen
Published: Sourcebook Casablanca (Feb 2015)
Series: Covent Gardens Cubs, 1
Genre: Historical Romance
Blurb:
His heart may be the last thing she ever steals . . .
Marlowe is a pickpocket, a housebreaker—and a better actress than any professional on the stage. She runs with the Covent Garden Cubs, a gang of thieves living in the slums of London’s Seven Dials. It’s a fierce life, and Marlowe has a hard outer shell. But when she’s alone, she allows herself to think of a time before—a dimly remembered life when she was called Elizabeth.
Maxwell, Lord Dane, is intrigued when his brother, a hired investigator, ropes him into his investigation of the fiercely beautiful hellion. He teaches her to navigate the social morass of the ton while his brother attempts to confirm her true identity. But Marlowe will not escape so easily. Instead, Dane is drawn into her world of danger and violence, where the student becomes the teacher and love is the greatest risk of all.

Why?
First off the title. Okay, how many of you started to hum Cindy Lauper's Girls Just Want to Have Fun, when you saw the title? Don't be ashamed, I did. Other than the fun title the cover is gorgeous. Then again I wouldn't find anything less from Sourcebooks. They seriously have fantastic cover artist. Anyway, what are you lusting for, a fun title or something else?
Hehe -- I love the title, and yes, now I have that song stuck in my head! :) Love the cover, too -- again, such a pretty gown!
