This book started out awesome. I loved the fact that there was a car. But the more I read the more bored I became. I'd say 200 pages of this book are either the hero or the heroine thinking about why the other isn't going to change, why they should change, or remembering the past.Let me back up. Wil...
Couldn't bring myself to finish this book though I've been reading chapter by chapter for a long time, I just can't get involved, it's just not fun to me. I was looking forward to revisiting some girl-bachelors characters but I don't know now if I'll ever finish this series at all.
The Duke William returns from Egypt at the same time his childhood sweetheart is about to marry. Lady Beatrix has tried but not forgotten the love they shared. Can she forget the broken engagement? Could he give her what she wants?
Wedding of the Season is set in Edwardian England and it was rather surreal seeing an otherwise typical historical romance novel with dialog that took me back to E. Nesbit or P.G. Wodehouse: people calling each other “old bean,” crying pax to make up... I don’t think anyone ever actually said “pip p...
William Mallory, the Duke of Sunderland, is back in England for a brief time to see to his estates and borrow more money to fund his archaeological expedition in Egypt, where he's searching for the tomb of King Tutankhamen. He knows he can't avoid seeing his former fiancee, Lady Beatrix Danbury, as ...
4.5 stars. I finished this yesterday and really enjoyed. It is set in 1902, and I loved the more modern take on historical England. Women are becoming more independent (smoking, driving and showing some ankle!), aristocracy is losing power to commercialism, and the rules of society are quickly being...
Publisher: AvonPublish Date: 12/28/10How I got this book: NetGalleyI must say I was expecting this to be another fabulous Regency Romance, but was surprised to find that we were actually in the 20th century, as the opening scene has Beatrix driving a car, almost plowing over our reluctant hero. Alth...
This was a fun, delightful read from another new to me historical author. We meet up with Beatrix and Will right off the bat....she about runs him over with her motorcar as he is returning from Egypt after six years. That was one of the first things that surprised me about this book, the setting. I ...
I've never in my life read a book by Laura Lee Guhrke but in the space of a couple of days, I read two. This book was the first of the two. I'm pretty impressed with what I've read and I will definitely be reading more from her in the future as well.Six years ago, Lady Beatrix was jilted at the alta...
