I wasn't aware that The Scandal of the Season was the second book in the Fairfax Sisters series, but it seems like these are companion books and can be read individually with only minor spoilers (i.e. the couple from the previous book end up together, but that's hardly in question when it comes to the romance genre). Nevertheless, I have no doubt that The Mismatch of the Season was also a fun read, though I know that book 2 will definitely be my favorite!
For a historical romance, there was a surprising amount of action along with the usual amount of defying social expectations and miscommunication while our main characters attempt to avoid accidental ruination and forced matrimony.
Looking forward to reading more from Michelle Kenney.

This one just didn't get me hooked for some reason. It could have been the writing style or something else, but I just couldn't get through it.

This second book in the Fairfax Sisters series was a fun, clean, and entertaining enemies to lovers historical romance. The characters were interesting and relatable. i enjoyed the witty banter, emotional issues, and surprising twists, which made for a delightful read. I recommend reading!

Thank you NetGalley, publisher and author for allowing me to read this book!

I enjoyed it but I didn’t at the same time… all I can say is that I slightly enjoyed the author’s first book, “mismatch of the season”, more. And I feel like with regency novels, you’d really have to zone in on the language - i felt like I couldn’t understand some of the regency narrative. I was really looking forward to this novel.

But there were tropes that I did like though and it did pick up halfway through the book. The words exchanged were cute and Lord Rotherby and Sophie Fairfax’s dynamic reminded me of Anthony and Kate’s enemies to lovers mixed with Simon and Daphne’s marriage of convenience from Bridgerton.

•Enemies to lovers
•Wager
•Marriage of convenience
•Scandal

Overall, if you want another Bridgerton-esque regency then this novel is for you! Be prepared for in fact this really was 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏…

Ugh, this book was boring. Sophie is such a naive, judgemental deb, that it was too annoying. And Rotherby was just playing too hard at being a rake. I would not marry him, imagine the diseases, ugh..

Anyway, very disappointed.

#NETGALLEY #TheScandaloftheSeason

Solid writing for a regency book, personally the plot didn't keep me intrestead enough throughout the whole book kept putting the book down.

Michelle Kenney’s latest Regency romp was such a fun surprise. The writing is smart and polished—much better than some of my recent reads—with turns of phrase that felt genuinely fresh and clever. I also appreciated how immersive the historical setting was. Kenney clearly did her homework, throwing in loads of Regency slang (some of which I hadn’t come across before, and I’ve read a lot of Regency!), along with generous helpings of French. While it added authenticity, the constant use of French did take me out of the story a bit.

This is a classic wager trope, but it doesn’t feel stale at all. Sophie and Rotherby have great banter, and their dynamic kept things moving. There’s a twist halfway through that I absolutely did not see coming—it was hilarious, added a ton of momentum, and honestly made me read the rest of the book in one sitting (which never happens for me anymore).

The only thing I really wish we had more of was the romance. It’s revealed and resolved very quickly, and I would’ve loved more time to bask in the tension and payoff. Still, this was a charming, witty, well-paced read that kept me engaged from start to finish.

Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins for the ARC! Scandal of the Season releases May 23, 2025.

Scandal of the season was a great rom com, I really liked reading this novel. The writing kept me engaged and the characters brought a sense of realism. It was easy to get into and I loved the way the storyline played out.

I love historical fiction so this was fantastic. I actually saw this book today at work and thought about picking up a final copy! This was so good! One of my favorite movies of all time is Pride and Prejudice (2005) so I was so excited to pick this up.

In the second book of Michelle Kenney’s Fairfax series, it’s Sophie Fairfax’s turn to step into society for the season. She’s hoping to find the right suitor and is set on marrying for love. But she’s also been warned that there are plenty of rakes around, and she should be careful.

As Sophie meets the eligible bachelors, she ends up caught in an unexpected wager with the most notorious rake of them all. What starts as a playful challenge soon becomes something more, leading her on a journey that takes her all the way to Paris.

There, Sophie faces one of the biggest decisions of her life as she tries to figure out what she truly wants, and whether that includes a charming rake or a perfectly respectable gentleman who looks ideal on paper.

Scandal of the Season is a full on regency romp full of rakes and troublesome misses. If you love Heyer's Devil's Cub, you will love this. It hits all the beats with some fabulous twists, humour and Easter eggs for Heyer fans. Loved the revolutionary dress designer highwaylady with her beautiful breeches

Thank you #NetGalley for the advanced copy of #TheScandaloftheSeason by Michelle Kenney in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first book my Ms. Kenney and there were definitely things I enjoyed about this book like the humor in it. It was borderline ridiculous at moments but sometimes you need that but I would keep that in mind before reading it because if that's not your thing or you aren't in the mood for it, you will be disappointed. Phoebe was at times fun and endearing but she also had moments where she got on my nerves or just made bad choices (like how she ended up in the scandalous position in the first place). As for Dominic, he's a bit forgettable (like I had to go look up his name to write this review) and I'm not sure why Phoebe fell in love with him. This book is the 2nd in the series and while I wasn't completely lost, I really wish I had read book 1 first as it would have helped me to understand a little quicker in the beginning of the book what was happening. I did really love that this was set in France instead of being in England once again.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Michelle Kenney for providing me with a complimentary digital ARC for The Scandal of the Season coming out May 23, 2025. The honest opinions expressed in this review are my own.

This is the second book I’ve read by this author. I really love regency romance and I enjoyed the first book, but this one didn’t do it for me. I wasn’t into the story as much as I thought. I didn’t like some of the decisions being made. It felt like the same old tropes were being used. I’d still check out other books by this author though.

ARC Review

3:75⭐️

✨ This is the only regency era romance series I want to pick up at the moment. I really enjoyed diving back into this world and getting to know this family better. The plot was so fun and so many scenes had me laughing out loud.

✨Sophie really got herself caught up in quite the scandal but I loved seeing the story unfold and all the twists I didn’t expect. Sophie did annoy me sometimes with some of her decisions but I understand she wanted to choose what she wanted for herself. I loved Lord Rotherby from the start and loved seeing him change and fall in love .

✨Overall this was such a fun book and I can’t wait for the next book in the series already!!

Great historical romance that is part of a series. Can be read as a standalone, but the enjoyment would be enhanced by having read the other books first.

Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review

3.5 🌟

In general I enjoyed this more than the first installment in the series, I felt more connected to Sophie as a MC than I did with Phoebe, though her naïveté and penchant for truly not-very-good decisions did begin to wear thin by the end of the book. The romance is more front-and-centre this time around, but the plot was a bit busy for my liking. It felt like a lot of things were thrown into the second half to add excitement but the quiet moments between Sophie and Lord Rotherby were where this really shone for me - her nursing him back to health (albeit after shooting him with an arrow and causing an infected wound which made him delirious), the stolen kiss in the garden, "I exist in a space where no one gets hurt, Miss Fairfax, and I am quite determined to stay there" - it's pretty diabolical that so much of the time they are actually not together on the page, because I didn't like them quite as much left to their own devices.

This was a good historical romance, perhaps not as great as the first in the series, but quite good. It was fun to transport the book to France when so many of this genre stay in England. You don't need to have read the first in the series to enjoy this but it is also good.

The Scandal of the Season by Michelle Kenney

Michelle Kenney’s The Scandal of the Season is a sparkling, smartly written Regency romance that had me utterly enchanted from the very first page. As the second book in the Fairfax Sisters series, it more than lives up to its predecessor, offering sharp wit, slow-burn romance, and a heroine who knows her own mind.

Sophie Fairfax is exactly the kind of leading lady I love—clever, curious, and not easily swayed by society’s expectations. She’s determined to find a husband on her own terms, not her family's—or the ton’s. Enter Lord Rotherby, a notorious rake with a devilish smile and a reputation that precedes him. When the two cross paths at her debut ball, a scandalous wager is set in motion, one that spirals into an irresistible game of charm, challenge, and unexpected vulnerability.

The chemistry between Sophie and Rotherby is electric—filled with tension, banter, and emotional depth. But what I appreciated most was how Michelle Kenney gives their relationship space to evolve beyond clichés. There’s more at stake here than just flirtation; themes of agency, reputation, and what it means to truly choose love are woven throughout.

Kenney’s prose is elegant yet playful, capturing the essence of the Regency era while keeping the tone fresh and modern. The supporting cast—particularly Sophie’s sisters—add richness and warmth to the story, and I loved the feminist undercurrent that pulses beneath the romance.

The Scandal of the Season is a must-read for fans of Evie Dunmore, Julia Quinn, or anyone who enjoys a love story with brains, heart, and just the right amount of mischief. It’s witty, swoony, and empowering—and left me grinning long after the final chapter.

I'm already counting the days until the next Fairfax sister takes center stage.

Scandal indeed! It certainly doesn't pull any punches given the starting scene in a brothel. I have to say that I enjoyed this over the top story - I had me chuckling throughout. The dynamic between Sophie and Lord Rotherby was fun to watch evolve.
I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Loved this so much - addictive, perfect for bridgerton fans. Just joyful reading from start to finish.
