Spy Fall ,(Rebellious Brides #1) by Diana Quincy. ARC Review. Regency Romance.


When a fiery French parachutist lands on a drunken Lord Cosmo Dunsmore, he surmises she’s an angel sent from above. But is she a spy after something far more sinister than his debauched soul? 

A fearless parachutist is out of her depth… 

Mari Lamarre is gaining fame for her daring aeronautic endeavors, but her riskiest adventure begins when she collides with the darkly charismatic son of the Marquess of Aldridge. If her mission succeeds, Cosmo’s father will be ruined. 

A rakehell falls for a dangerous woman… 

Surrendering to a fierce passion, the two embark on a torrid affair, even as Cosmo vows to protect his family at all costs. But in doing so, will he risk losing the captivating beauty who’s swept into his life and made off with his heart?


Lord Cosmo Dunsmore is sure he must be dead when he wakes up to see an angel falling from the sky. He is in the cornfield. (How he ended up in the cornfield in his shirt sleeves we don't know ) As the woman reaches the ground Cosmo walks towards her and she lands on him. (Quite a few giggles here. )
Mari Lamarre is an aeronaut.  She jumps from hot air balloons with a parachute. (I must admit when it became obvious she was parachuting down it confused me. I though how  can she do that before planes were invented. I have not heard that they could do it from balloons. Apparently they did. )
Mari also has a reason for landing there . She is a spy and is investigating Lord Cosmo's father.
This book is so much fun. Our heroine is an incredible woman,  she is brave and so clever. At the beginning of the story our hero is a dissolute rake with a guilty conscience.  However he  gets so caught up in what Mari is up to he starts to pay attention to what is happening. This is the start of a series that I know I will be addicted to. I loved it.


Diana Quincy is an award-winning former television journalist who decided she'd rather make up stories where a happy ending is always guaranteed. 

Fans of Madeline Hunter, Lisa Kleypas and Sabrina Jeffries will love Diana's Regency world of dashing dukes, irresistible rogues and the headstrong, determined women who capture their hearts. New York Times bestselling author Grace Burrowes says SEDUCING CHARLOTTE is "Sweet, steamy, and thoroughly enjoyable...Equal parts action, passion and fun." 

Growing up as a foreign service brat, Diana lived in many countries and is now settled in Virginia with her husband and two sons. When not bent over her laptop or trying to keep up with laundry, she enjoys reading, spending time with her family and dreams of traveling much more than her current schedule (and budget) allows.
