Dear Mrs Justiss,
“A Most Unconventional Match” lives up to its name. I fear that the back blurb won’t give readers much enticement to choose it over any other Regency set historical though. When I first read it, I thought, “hmmmm, okay. Sounds….nice.” Which I would guess is not the “gotta buy this [...]
Dear Ms Grange,
Despite at times feeling as if I’m “Regency’d” out, a good one can still pull me in, entertain me and leave me feeling good. Your book has lots of elements I look for such as believable lead characters and period detail yet avoids obvious historical mistakes and makes use of Brighton instead [...]
Dear Mrs. Merrill,
Thank you for sending me the arc of your newest Regency, “A Wicked Liaison.” I like how you stick to convention Regency lore yet still give us something new. Most of the titled characters are either villains, idiots or snobs while the hero is a plain Mister. Ah, bliss. And there’s no sudden [...]
Dear Mrs. Justiss,
I think if readers are looking for a nice, safe Regency that doesn’t rock any boats then “Rogue’s Lady” is a good bet. There’s the rake hero who’s trying to reform in order to land an heiress with money to resurrect his crumbling estate, there’s the “daughter of a misalliance” heroine who’s fiercely [...]
Dear Ms Gaston,
A few years ago I read the first book you had published, “The Mysterious Miss M,” and was delighted that you turned a few Regency standards on their heads. I then tried another of your stories and have to be honest and say that it seemed more of what everyone else was churning [...]
Dear Ms McLeod,
What a delightful regency novella. It’s sweet but not saccarine, has a nice period feel, and characters who felt true to times. When they meet, Peter Trevayne and India Pottersby feel an attraction yet neither acts on it since India is busy as the sister of the young vicar of the village and [...]
Dear Mrs. Harris,
When I got my hands on the hardcover edition of the third book in this mystery series, it was another moment when I wished I’d already read the other books in the series. But since, and especially with a mystery series, I try to read sequels in order I knew I’d better haul [...]
Dear Ms. Carlyle,
At this point, I think I’m going to stop with this trilogy even though the hero who’s left is a character I initially had the most interest in. I had problems with Never Lie to a Lady and they’ve only got worse with Never Deceive a Duke. For one thing, the plot [...]
Dear Readers,
For those interested in trying Dinah Dean who don’t want to pay a fortune for her Russian set Regency books, this is one that was reissued in the US and which is easier (and cheaper) to find. It’s a sweet, more old fashioned type of book (it was written in 1982) and is [...]

Tara Marie did a great review of this book when it came out in hardcover.
"This is one of those books you want everyone you know to read. When I sat down to review this I picked up the book to skim different passages, and found myself rereading huge chunks of the book, finally giving up and rereading the whole thing."
