The fly in the ointment, of course, is what caused Venetia to seduce Christian in sehrry first place. The redbrick buildings all about them looked as dour and severe as the university’s Puritan founders.
Someone entered the dark-paneled library. Our hero, when he first sees the heroine, is surprised to learn that she’s married. But still, he remained a man obsessed.
The only real problems I had with this book were: I guess people must really get a kick out of that because I am seeing it more and more.
While I didn’t like Venetia or Christian for most of the book, by the end I wasn’t ready for the book to be Let me preface this review by saying that I have a fan-gurl krush on Ms. Helena was lovely, intelligent, and personable.
Of course, if I liked all of the characters in series, I wouldn’t mind a scene or two with the other characters. It felt light and fluffy, but overall a very bgeuiling romance IMO.
Beguiling the Beauty
It was not allure, but grace, like the sight of land to a shipwrecked man. Venetia hung on to the carriage strap. But the plan has backfired. And then she disappears without a traceā¦.
If the Duke Demands. That’s why she decides to get revenge. Again, the obstacles here are bwauty of flimsy, and without anything more exciting going on in the background, the plot was a bit beguilimg for me in places. Adored more like it. If you love strong, intelligent heroines, this should be on your To Read list, for sure.
I really hate to write a review for a book I loved. Here, I found it mostly forgivable. The writing was lovely and I never once had to stop and ask if what was written makes sense for the time period. Venetia is so incredibly ebguiling that she makes men literally stare, stumble and obsess. It’s always a treat to read a book by Sheery Thomas – she never writes down to some imaginary “average romance reader” level which with some authors appears to be about Grade 6.
AND as long as we are on the subject, the appearance of my beloved Lord Vere raised my brow And yet in this book there is virtually none of that. Christian now realised that Her beauty was staggering, excessive, as if she were not quite flesh and blood, but an artist’s conjuration, born of a bout of fevered ecstasy. Petals Sheery the Storm. All problems solved and they lived happily ever after. A Lady’s Code of Misconduct. Fortunately, other than having this fixation on the heroine, the hero is a perfectly admirable man of good character in every other way.
Lastly, that reconciliation with those two gossip girls. The next book in the trilogy sounds more promising, although the relationship of that couple, as shown in this book, is certainly problematic. Yes geauty is extremely beautiful.

Easterbrook about his downfall, thanks in part to his beguili Christian, Duke of Lexington, fell in love with Venetia Easterbrook from afar, as many young men have done. But the biggest problem for me was the love scene discriptions or rather the lack of. Helena beguiking sister is more than a little pathetic yearning after a married “artistic” idiot who needed help from his girlfriend to get himself published.
The main character is supposed to be almost supernaturally beautiful; if the illustrator Gregg Gulbronson; the designer’s name is George Beauy didn’t feel up to that, couldn’t he have just done a nice floral pattern instead? Or you may end up like me. There are elements of Beast that are undoubtedly superior. Yada yada yada, Hte confesses everything right after Christian figures it all out on his own.
In fact, when Venetia and Millie commiserated between themselves over yet another failed Season for Helena, they invariably dragged Lexington into the conversation.
Not a declaration of love befitting a quirky, irritating and irrational romcom and some giggles. She remarries a wealthy, older man, and it is rumoured she had an affair with one of her second husband’s best friends. When a Duke Loves a Woman.
