This book should have never happened.After reading some 350 odd pages of this book, I must come to that conclusion.The Villiers I recall from previous James books would never be so moronic. The Villiers I recall is intelligent, crafty, witty and an utter snob. The Villiers I recall is incisively p...
The “Desperate Duchesses” series was very up and down for me and this last book was the most up and down of all; one minute I enjoyed it, the next I was bored, the next I wanted to throw it against the wall.The book starts off with a bang, a dramatic, sensual moment between the Duke of Villiers, who...

Talk about your anti-hero. At the beginning of the series, he sets out to seduce Jemma (via a chess game) who was married! So ...
I have never read an Eloisa James book before. My preferred romance category is the contemporary.
