Synopsis

Dear Lady Truelove . . . I have fallen in love, truly and completely in love, for the first time. The man whom I hold in such passionate regard, however, is not of my station. He is a painter, a brilliant artist. Needless to say, my family would not approve . . .Henry, Duke of Torquil, wouldn’t be caught reading the wildly popular “Dear Lady Truelove” column, but when its advice causes his mother to embark on a scandalous elopement, an outraged Henry decides the author of this tripe must be stopped before she can ruin any more lives. Though Lady Truelove’s identity is a closely guarded secret, Henry has reason to suspect the publisher of the notorious column, beautiful and provoking Irene Deverill, is also its author.For Irene, it’s easy to advise others to surrender to passion, but when she meets the Duke of Torquil, she soon learns that passion comes at a price. When one impulsive, spur-of-the-moment kiss pulls her into a scorching affair with Henry, it could destroy her beloved newspaper, her career, and her independence. But in the duke’s arms, surrender is so, so sweet . . .

I absolutely loved this book! In fact there were a couple of points in the story where I had to put the book down and just breathe--I mean it was that good.

Laura es de mis autoras favoritas en romance histórico y debo confesar que este no ha sido su mejor libro. Para empezar no me gusta mucho las protagonistas sufragistas porque para ellas es todo negro o blanco y al principio Irene así era. Segundo la historia romántica tardó en arrancar, todo era muy e......more
