Summary

Lady Eve's got the perfect plan. Pretty, petite Evie Windham has been more indiscreet than her parents, the Duke and Duchess of Moreland, suspect. Fearing that a wedding night would reveal her past, she's running out of excuses to dodge adoring swains. Lucas Denning, the newly titled Marquis of Deene, has reason of his own for avoiding marriage. So Evie and Deene strike a deal, each agreeing to be the other's decoy. At this rate, matrimony could be avoided indefinitely...until the two are caught in a steamy kiss that no one was supposed to see. Contains mature themes.

Too drawn out

It was mostly dull & felt overly long.

It might've been slightly better if it had been a short story or even halved, IMO.


Evie was a dreary character, too emo, melodramatic & her constant woe is me attitude really did start to grate after just a few chapters.

She wants a white marriage (unconsummated), yet gets angry when she thinks he's only after her money, when he's been nothing but sweet & loving towards her!

Lucas was a sweet man who was really dopey, naive & too trusting, as it's blatantly obvious from the get go, who the "villain" is.

There was no real resolution at the end, which just made the book seem pointless after suffering through a book that was mostly fodder.

It was baffling that no one in Evie's family seems to know the extent of her "secret" & her trauma, but none try to speak to her about it either & it's been 7 years...

There weren't any real stakes.

Dysfunctional and Bizarre

The Hero is easily manipulated.
He and the Heroine kiss alot, yet they are estranged.
He has a brother-in-law, who has his own agenda and a dislikes of the English.
The Heroine has her own trauma, which no-one talks about, not even her "supportive" family.
It is obvious that they will be compromised and marry. Then due to a lack of communication the muddle fills the pages, then all is resolved.
The biggest confusion is the Heroine's need for a "white wedding". Yet a rampant need to participate in all sexual acts. Definitely a case of "have your cake and eat it".
Disappointing and inconsistent.
If sex has to play a big part.
Why chose this particular scenario ?
