Got halfway through and gave up on it. The main characters didn't really engage my interest. There are no real reasons given for why Darius has to work as a man-whore, even though he hates it, and Vivien didn't have much of a role in the book up to point where I stopped - her role is mostly passive ...

Grace Burrowes is one of my favorite authors to read. After reading some of the Wyndham series, she was bumped up to the top of my list. In the past, her stories have been emotionally driven stories with powerful characters. Darius is the first in this series, and by reading the synopsis I was beyo...

Enjoyed it. Nice touch to bump up against the author's other beloved series. A few eye-rolling moments, but I liked Darius.

I’ve become a Grace Burrowes fan-girl after reading the entire Windham series, although one of the annoying things in those books was the author’s habit of tossing in new characters with little or no introduction.

However, when handed lemons, one should try to make lemonade… Especially when a sister’s future is...

Though the youngest son of an earl, Darius finds himself without an income. So he quietly starts selling himself to a few ladies of t...

I've come to the sad conclusion that Grace Burrowes just isn't for me. I am drawn to her writing style and premises but the attraction always ends there. I couldn't connect at all to Darius or Vivian. Their month in his country estate is a bit, well, boring. Lots of tea, warm fires and hot toddi...
