" She's not Georgette Heyer but Jo Beverley writes a good period romance. "
— Mary, 2/20/2014 -
" This was a fun, rollicking adventure of a Georgian historical romance. 3.5 stars "
— Julia, 2/16/2014 -
" I really liked the beginning of the book and the interaction between the hero and heroine. The problem came when the two separated. Then, it just lost its spark. "
— Jennifer, 1/30/2014 -
" I think "Cock" Robin would drive me nuts if I had to live with him. Good thing he found Petra instead! As always, thrilled to see more of Rothgar and have more developments in his life. "
— Mary, 1/25/2014 -
" I loved the intro but thought this one bogged a little during the road trip. "
— Jane, 1/22/2014 -
" I know I read this. I have the book on my shelf as a prove. but for the life of me, I couldn't remember. So a book that unimpressive I guess warrant two stars "
— lia, 1/19/2014 -
" The main story was okay but what I really enjoyed was seeing Bey Malloren again, and in a different light. A good companion novel to "Devilish." "
— Rachel, 1/17/2014 -
" An entertaining addition to the Malloren series, featuring the (spoiler!) illegitimate daughter of Bey. "
— Deborah, 1/15/2014 -
" I cant finish this !!, perhaps another time ....will be re-read!! "
— Lucie, 1/12/2014 -
" Not actually reading this one yet, but bought it for the plane trip to (and/or from) England at the end of the month. "
— Lorie, 1/6/2014 -
" Liked: the Georgian setting, the fake nun, and the masquerade. Disliked: much of the characterization, especially of the male lead. "
— Joy, 12/25/2013 -
" Romance and humor, what a great mix!! "
— Onika, 12/15/2013 -
" Oh this one was fun. "
— Angela, 12/10/2013 -
" I liked this book better than the last Beverly novel I read. It moved along quickly and included some very funny moments. "
— Kel, 11/21/2013 -
" One of the women in my book club described this book as "a bodice ripper". It is a pretty hot romance. Not especially my genre. "
— Marilyn, 7/16/2013 -

— Rinku, 4/5/2013 -
" served its purpose. "
— Catherine, 3/30/2013 -
" If it were food this book might be a cream puff. But a good one, with delicious pastry cream filling. It's fun, it's sweet and tasty, not particularly filling or complex, but it's so much better than the ones filled with reddi-whip. "
— Cameron, 1/24/2013 -
" I don't think I will ever tire of re-reading this book. the laughs from each misunderstanding, and the rescues...and the work of fate-all end up creating a nice ending. it could have been stronger-Rothgar punching Robin, or something, so that he could be rescued by the lady. "
— Patricia, 9/19/2012 -
" This was nice and rather lacking in sexual descriptions which is great! did not know it was the 8th of the series though. "
— Cary, 7/6/2012 -
" Better than other Jo Beverly books I've read but I didn't get attached to the male protagonist. 2.5 stars "
— Jaime, 2/16/2012 -

" Historical fiction romance in the 1700's. I enjoyed the book. "
— Denise, 7/7/2009 -
" Read this for a book club thinking it was historical fiction...it's basically just romance/porn. "
— Pamela, 3/23/2009 -
" The hero was a sorta ne'er do well but he was likable and had a code of honor that kept me rooting for him. The heroine was strong and independent but not so headstrong that she didn't need people. I liked them both and cheered for them right to the sweet end. "
— Donna, 3/21/2009 -
