A story of secrets, assumptions, pain, and desire when two orphans unknowingly bring Dominic and Victoria closer than they ever imagined.

A spicy read. The exploration is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting. Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or moments that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.

2 Flames 84x150 Book Reviews: Eloisa James, E.B. Asher, and Lia Rileyโ˜• ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ A sinfully sweet story. The characters have expressed their feelings as they begin to explore a physical connection which many include kissing and sexual touching. There is plenty of sexual tension on the page and the bedroom door is open. The intimacy between characters is warm, sensual, and inviting but will will fade-to-black leaving the details off the page. The reader can confirm the characters have taken their exploration to the next level and are now connecting in a more intimate nature. In some books you will find a little extra drama that might be paired with a third act break-up which hopefully leads to a reunion sprinkled with a little romance of some kind before the story ends.

Note Trigger Warnings: divorce, grief, past loss of siblings, kidnapping, and violence.

Four Nights with the Duke is Eloisa’s best book yet! Review, Giveaway and more…

Four Nights with the Duke (Desperate Duchesses), by Eloisa James, is herย best book yet! Emilia “Mia” Gwendolyn Carrington has found herself in an unfortunate situation and is determined to make things right for her family. When she proposes marriage to the Duke of Pindar, Evander “Vander” Septimus Brody, he’s absolutely shocked. Fifteen years ago she swore that she’d never go near him again, ever.

When she presentsย her terms and conditions for this happy andย blessed union,ย Vander counters her proposal, and the games begin. Will either of them agree? Both have everything to lose if they don’t give in.

All Mia secretly wants is to be loved, but protecting her family must come first. They both have secrets that can destroy them,ย each assume they have the upper hand. Will time heal old wounds?ย Too many people have been betrayed, how long will theyย live with the fear and guilt?

This was my favorite book to date by Eloisa.ย I could not put it down! It had everything that I love about her books – fantastic and well defined characters, vivid and colorful details putting the reader right into the middle of their world, and a heroine that is a force to be reckoned with! The chemistry is sizzling and is a must read! Check out the following excerpt and discover a taste of this decadent treat.

EXCERPT

Prologue

Spring, 1787

~ A Music Recital ~

The Duke of Villiersโ€™s townhouse

ย 

At fifteen, Emilia Gwendolyn Carrington already had a pretty good idea of what hell was like. Miaโ€™s governess had taught her all about Danteโ€™s nine infernal circles.

Miaโ€™s first circle had required her to make her debut at fifteen, under the aegis of a hired chaperone, because her mother was dead. Her second circle had added a far worse indignity: her charming, widowed father was conducting a flagrantย affaireย with a married duchess that everyone in the fashionable world knew about.

She had entered the third circle over the last year or so, when against all reason, she had fallen desperately in love with the same duchessโ€™ son, Vander. He was the most sensitive, intelligent boy in the world (or so Mia thought). And he was beautiful too, with a face that resembled the stone angels that guarded babyโ€™s graves.

The remaining circles of hell? All six?

They were revealing themselves in rapid succession. Mia had begged her father to attend the Villiers musicale on the chance that the object of her adoration, Evander Septimus Brody, future Duke of Pindar, would be present. It seemed probable since the Duke of Villiersโ€™s eldest son, Tobias, was best mates with Vander.

As it turned out, the house was indeed overrun with boys on holiday from Eton and among the horde was Vander, who roundly ignored her. Mia didnโ€™t mind that: she was happy worshipping him from afar. He was too godlike for someone like her.

Besides, it wasnโ€™t as if he danced attendance on any other girl. He and the other Etonians spent their time swigging brandy although it was not yet noon, cursing loudly, and generally pretending to be far older than their fifteen years. Mia finally retreated to the library, a tranquil room with book-lined walls.

She was searching the shelves for anything resembling her favorite novel, Eliza Heywoodโ€™sย Love in Excess, when she heard, to her horror, the sound of boys approaching. Even worse, she quickly recognized the voices as those of Vander and his friend Tobias, who seemed to be calling himself Thorn these days.
