Blog Tour: Interview with Jade Lee, Author of 50 Ways to Ruin a Rake

Author: Jade Lee
Series: Sourcebooks Casablanca
Pubdate: May 5th, 2015

Mellie Smithson has a plan…
Mellie Smithson is trapped in the country with no suitors and no prospects on the horizon except, perhaps, the exasperating—although admittedly handsome—guest of her father. Unwilling to settle, Mellie will do anything to escape to London...

Trevor Anaedsley has a problem…
Trevor Anaedsley’s grandfather has cut off his funds until he gets engaged. Beset by creditors, Trevor escapes to the country—ostensibly to visit his old tutor Mr. Smithson—where he meets Smithson’s lovely daughter Mellie. The obvious solution is suddenly before him—but will this fake engagement go as Trevor and Mellie plan? Or will they find that even the best laid plans often go awry?

Today we are excited to welcome Jade Lee to the blog! Jade’s latest title, 50 Ways to Ruin a Rake, is out May 5th and marks the beginning of her hilarious new Rakes & Rogues series. To celebrate her new release, Jade is here for a “mini-interview” and has answered a set of three questions for us!


1.       Who is your favorite literary character and why?  King Arthur in The Once and Future King by TH White. The pain of being caught between love and duty is so poignant. Especially since the woman he loves is in love with someone else.  Arthur needs Guinevere and Lancelot. They’re his best friends and the triangle always gets to me. Add in the magic of Merlin, and I’m hooked.
2.       If you could be any animal, what would you be and why? Well, it’s not an animal, but I’m trying to be more tree like. Seriously. Rooted, growing, giving oxygen and beauty to the world. It sounds like an odd thing to say, but that’s where my brain is right now. Tomorrow, I might be a hummingbird. Or an ant. Anything but a dog because, you know, I’m really a cat person.
3.       In three words, how would you describe 50 Ways to Ruin a Rake? FUNNY, SEXY, A REALLY GOOD TIME (okay, that last one wasn’t a word, but I can’t seem to follow the rules to save my life)
