Synopsis:
“A duke by any other name! “
Touted as honourable, and a sterling example for all young bucks to emulate, this author has it on the highest authority that a certain duke is nothing but a libertine! Grab your weekly features to keep abreast with the duke of disgrace!”
Christopher Worth, the Duke of Carlyle, has a carefully cultivated reputation of ‘respectability’ but he possesses a dark, lustful heart which he reins in rather well. Except someone is out to reveal him as a wicked rogue in the tongue in cheek articles written about him by a notorious gossip columnist. Determined to unmask this meddler in his life, he finds his heart shockingly captivated by Miss Pippa Cavanaugh.
The hopes of marriage or the charming attractiveness of the Duke of Carlyle didn’t drive Pippa to pursue the most elusive catch of the season, she was out to avenge her dear friend whose heart had been callously injured. Pippa desires to reveal to society that their perfect duke is a wicked, unprincipled seducer. The last thing she expects is for the dratted man to turn the tables on her, engaging her in a dance of wits, soul stealing kisses, and unexpected, sensual adventures. Soon she must decide if he is her path to ruin or her promise of a happy ending.
My Thoughts:
This is a delightful read with misconceptions abound.
Even Christopher’s proclivities were alluded to in a very subtle way making certain this story did not turn the book into a kinky romp which would have turned me off totally.
Stacy Reid respected her characters and remained discreet about their preferences.
I really enjoyed this short read and gave it 4.5 of 5.0 stars for storyline an characterization. The characters are well developed with no need for avert content to boost it’s sexiness and intimacy.
There is a very sexy nature to this novella though so be warned this is not your mother’s regency.
I received a complimentary copy of this book to read. This in no way affected my opinion of this title which I read and reviewed voluntarily.
