My biggest problem with this book and the others in this series is that there are too many other storylines going on at the same time. I didn't feel as if this was Bea and Stephen's book. It felt as if they were just one of many stories going on. I don't mind multiple storylines but feel that the couple advertised on the book should have a primary role. It was a good read but definitely not great. I am finding that I much prefer Julia Quinn, Mary Balogh and Lisa Kleypas over Ms. James.

This is the third book in the Duchess Series series. Anyone who likes Eloisa James will love this book. Scandalous Beatrix Lennox falls in love with uptight and upright Stephen Fairfax-Lacy. She is definitely not what he is looking for, but of course she is perfect for him.

This story of three lady friends, other books in the series, Your Wicked Ways and Fool for love. All steamy and great romp plus Ms. James is a witty writer.

This book is great. I read it in one afternoon, I just couldn't put it down. Lady Bea is such a delightful character and as you read her story, you can't help but relate to her. Stephen is such a delightful man. The way he shows her that she is not "unmarriageable" and that she is in fact a beautiful desire. What a great journey! I love Eloisa James and she doesn't disappoint with this one!
