Great Humorous Romance

This book was quite different from Ms.Deauxville's previous novels. This book made me laugh and enlightened my outlook towards the standard romance. Ms. Deauxville captured all the pertinent feelings of a romance including humor I hope she continues her great work and I am looking forward to the next book! Thank you Katherine.

You'll be beguiled, amused and ENRAPTURED

One of the best Regency historicals I've read in a long time. Witty, sexy, charming and moving all at once. Some historicals make you laugh; some make you cry; some make you think. This one does all three. As a romance writer myself, I can't think of a higher compliment than that. Keep 'em coming, faster, Ms Deauxville!

This is wonderful! You will love this book!!

"Warning" Do Not read this book with broken ribs. I laughed so much at times I was hurting and going Oh, God, Oh, Oh. When you have three young women from the country that believe in "free love", and all the teachings of Mary Wollstonecraft, and one, Marigold, is chosen as the spokesperson to confont the very "brutal exploiter of women & children." His grace, Sacheverel Westermere, has no earthly idea what or why this Marigold Fenwick is spouting all the rubbish she is. One thing he will know is when Marigold decides to seduce the duke, lord does that man know he's seduced. Three things in life are important, to live, love, and laugh, Ms. Deauxville gives you that and so much more. Splendid!! 4 1/2 BELLS!! Donita Lawrence 4820 SE 52nd OKC, OK 73135
