Staff Pick
As a romance writer, Eloisa James is in a class by herself. She consistently presents us with delicious tales of historical England, and A Duke of Her Own is one of her most scrumptious gifts to romance fans yet. A Duke of Her Own tells the tale of Leopold Dautry, the notorious Duke of Villiers, whose character is interwoven into previous storylines in the Desperate Duchesses series. This time, it's Leopold's turn, and he finally gets his own "happily ever after." The best thing about a James romance is the lack of clichés, the authentic plots, and the wonderful characters. Her novels are lush and full of witty conversation and wicked interludes. A Duke of Her Own is a fitting conclusion to one of the best romantic series ever. Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:
Leopold Dautry, the notorious Duke of Villiers, must wed quickly and nobly—and his choices, alas, are few. The Duke of Montague's daughter, Eleanor, is exquisitely beautiful and fiercely intelligent. Villiers betroths himself to her without further ado. After all, no other woman really qualifies. Lisette, the outspoken daughter of the Duke of Gilner, cares nothing for clothing or decorum. She's engaged to another man, and doesn't give a fig for status or title. Half the ton believes Lisette mad—and Villiers is inclined to agree. Torn between logic and passion, between intelligence and imagination, Villiers finds himself drawn to the very edge of impropriety. But it is not until he's in a duel to the death, fighting for the reputation of the woman he loves, that Villiers finally realizes that the greatest risk may not be in the dueling field . . . But in the bedroom. And the heart. About the AuthorAuthor of eleven award-winning romances, Eloisa James is a professor of English literature who lives with her family in New Jersey. All her books must have been written in her sleep, because her days are taken up by caring for two children with advanced degrees in whining, a demanding guinea pig, a smelly frog, and a tumbledown house. Letters from readers provide a great escape! What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
