My Thoughts:
His Bride for the Taking by Tessa Dare
I liked this one. It was very sweet. Sebastian has been in love with his best friend's sister forever and she who was older never noticed him. And then when she is left at the altar he marries her instead to save her reputation. I mean what a wonderful guy! Also what horrible times when it means being left at the altar ruins her rep cos people will think they did things before.
Most of the book takes place in a little cottage. Oh one part at the beginning made me snort. It was so funny. But they will get to know each other more and more *wink wink* They will have some hurdles to get over and some truths will be had. But it is a funny one.
Oh I almost forgot...Ikea. That is all I am saying *snorts*
His Duchess for a Day by Christi Caldwell
I had a harder time with this heroine. She left her new husband and stayed away for 10 years. Was he an ogre you ask? No, he was her best friend. And then when he shows up she has the nerve to think ill of him cos she has seen his name in the scandal sheets. You left him, for 10 years! He did not know whether you were dead or alive!
Of course we do learn things further in that makes me forgive her a tiny bit, a tiny bit. He is still a great guy all way through. All men should be that steadfast. He loves her and he wants her back.
All in all:
Great Dukes!
Narration
The ever awesome Justine Eyre narrates and you might have notice that I do like her style. She can not do anything wrong
Blurb
Two scandalous brides...
Two rogues who won’t be denied...
His Bride for the Taking by New York Times Bestselling author Tessa Dare
It’s the first rule of friendship among gentlemen: Don’t even think about touching your best friend’s sister. But Sebastian, Lord Byrne, has never been one for rules. He’s thought about touching Mary Clayton—a lot—and struggled to resist temptation. But when Mary’s bridegroom leaves her waiting the altar, only Sebastian can save her from ruin. By marrying her himself.
In eleven years, he’s never laid a finger on his best friend’s sister. Now he’s going to take her with both hands. To have, to hold...and to love.
His Duchess for a Day by USA Today Bestseller Christi Caldwell
It was never meant to be…
That’s what Elizabeth Terry has told herself while trying to forget the man she married--her once best friend. Passing herself off as a widow, Elizabeth has since built a life for herself as an instructor at a finishing school, far away from that greatest of mistakes. But the past has a way of finding you, and now that her husband has found her, Elizabeth must face the man she’s tried to forget.
It was time to right a wrong…
Crispin Ferguson, the Duke of Huntington, has spent the past years living with regret. The young woman he married left without a by-your-leave, and his hasty elopement had devastating repercussions. Despite everything, Crispin never stopped thinking about Elizabeth. Now that he’s found her, he has one request—be his duchess, publicly, just for a day.
Can spending time together as husband and wife rekindle the bond they once shared? Or will a shocking discovery tear them apart...this time, forever?
A Regency duet? No thanks. Give me a Gothic trio any time...

DeleteUh... she leaves him for ten years for a not good reason? No...
ReplyDeleteShe does have a reason, but omg, she could have talked with him!!
DeleteSounds really good.
ReplyDelete2-in-1! Fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd I did not count it towards the challenge as I read a 2 in 1 and not a separate one ;)
DeleteMarry the girl you've always been in love with, save her reputation at the same time - sounds like a win-win for him, lol,

Total win win
DeleteOh... I'm listening to my first Justine Eyre audio... At first I was taken aback by the gruffness of her voice, but I like it - it works! I'd love to hear her do other genres.
ReplyDeleteWhen you get used to her you really like her :D I started with highlanders with her so it took me a while to forget those
DeleteI would probably wonder more about the one that left her husband for 10 years too.
ReplyDeleteOh yes
DeleteSounds good, and I am a Tessa Dare fan.
ReplyDeleteShe sure is good
