Never Resist a Rake - Review

If you love Regency romances, RUN to purchase this book! It is, without a doubt, the best I've read for a very long time.

John Fitzhugh Barrett has recently learned that rather than being the penniless bastard he was raised to believe he was, he is heir to a marquessate! Now he must manage to become the person his new family wishes him to be, without totally giving up his free-wheeling, roguish ways.

Rebecca Kearsey is the daughter of a baron... usually a perfectly respectable title. However, this particular baron has a bad habit of gambling away any amount of money that crosses his path, much to the detriment of his family. Rebecca has no hopes of making any sort of match with a family such as this.

John and Rebecca meet in a most unusual way... she has gotten herself into an awful scrape, and without giving any spoilers, of course John rescues her. They get to know each other, and begin to fall head over heels for each other. 

As with a typical Regency romance, of course there is the usual boy meets girl, disastrous events occur, and many misunderstandings happen on their way to eternal happiness. But Ms Marlowe has turned this story into so much more than that. Highly recommended!

Frontier Engagement - Review

Alexandrina Eugenia Fosgrave is a proper and polite young lady, refined, polished and poised, newly transplanted to Seattle from Massachusetts. James Wallin is a rugged frontier man, a little roguish, yet well meaning and kind. Neither of them have any intention of falling in love....

Mr Wallin comes to Seattle to hire Miss Fosgrave to teach school in the tiny village his family dwells in. She reluctantly agrees after meeting the families and her three prospective students. However, someone does not want a teacher in town, and soon Rina decides she simply must return to Seattle.

Mr Wallin devises to plan to try to convince her to stay, with disastrous results, and soon they are lost together in the deep woods! Of course, this places the reputation of both of them in grave danger. 

This is a truly delightful short read, perfect for a beach read or a plane ride. I absolutely loved meeting the charming people in this story, and highly recommend it!
