How I feel about the book, the image that says it all:This book started great, but after the 3rd chapter or so it went downhill. We have the heroine who is about 50% likable who's in love with the hero, or, at least, what she imagines him to be. Then we have the hero who allegedly is a nymphomaniac(...
I've been tired with historical's because they're all obnoxiously predictable. This one is predictable in most ways, but thankfully it was very different in content. Not what I expected... and that's what made me keep reading. Honestly, it's probably only a 3, but I'm so impressed with the fact that...
Unconventional heroine accepts rake Duke's marriage proposal of marriage in return for bailing her zoologist father who was imprisoned by England's king for publishing a shocking book about human sexuality from his animal research.

I read and actually liked Mistress of Pleasure& Lord of Pleasure, but I barely finished this book, a lot of thing bothered me, but I do have the next 2 books in the series on my tbr pile, I hope they get better.
