Lessons in Love
Three determined young ladies vow to give three of London's worst rakes their comeuppance -- but when these rogues turn the tables, who truly learns a lesson in love?
Once upon a time, the notorious Viscount Dare charmed Lady Georgiana Halley out of her innocence -- to win a wager, no less! -- and now he must pay dearly. The plan is simple: She will use every seductive wile she knows to win Dare's heart . . . and then break it. But his smoldering gaze once again tempts Georgiana to give in to desire -- and when he astonishes her with a marriage proposal, she wonders: Is he playing yet another game . . . or could it truly be love this time?

This book.......is a such a typical encounter between Suzanne Enoch and me. The book started great, with Tristan and Georgiana, who had a "thing", the...
This book was okay, and I keep hearing that the 2nd book is much better. The romance was okay but I don't blame Georgiana for being mad, especially in that time period. Crossing my fingers that book 2 is really better.
Started off so well, witty fun dialogue and interaction between the two characters. But good golly the middle and ending of the book was like wading through molasses in winter. The heroine's trust issues with the hero appear and then reappear and reappear and reappear. Look lady, maybe instead of...
3½ Stars
This might have been a 3 or 4 star rating up to the point where an 18 year-old debutante tries to seduce the hero in his own bed, after sneaking undetected out of her own house, at 2 in the morning, by herself, finding a hackney cab and simply walking into the hero's house and finding his bedroom in...
