The Taming of the Rake by Kasey Michaels

This is the first book in a new series by Kasey Michaels.  It is about three bastard brothers who are the sons of a marquess and an actress.  They are beloved by their father, wealthy and sexy but to the ton that makes no difference.  A wealthy bastard is still a bastard.  Oliver "Beau" Blackthorn was leading a charmed life until the day a beautiful woman destroyed his innocence and his hopes for the future.  Now he is slowly getting his revenge on the ones who thought that he was nothing, until the day a familiar face shows up at his door.   Lady Chelsea Mills–Beckman knows the truth behind the changes in Beau and has devised a way for him to get his revenge and help her at the same time.  I think this is a great story.  I read a lot of books based on titles and it was nice to see one that wasn't but still has the power to draw you in and keep you there.  I can not wait to find out what Ms. Michaels has in store for Jack and Puck!

Dukes to the Left of Me, Princes to the Right By Kieran Kramer

I was not familiar with Kieran Kramer when I first read this book but you can guarantee that she is on my must read list now!  This is a great book and I have actually read it twice now.  To be or not to be...a Spinster.  That is the question and Lady Poppy Barnes-Smith most definitely has an answer for.  She is and will always be a Spinster, unless true love comes her way.  She has turned down over a dozen proposals all with the guise of a suitor that is on the verge of proposing, a fictitious peer named the Duke of Drummond.  Unbeknownst to Poppy the Duke of Drummond is a real man who also happens to be a spy.  The chance to use Poppy and a betrothal to further his agenda is a chance Nicholas Staunton, Duke of Drummond can not pass up.  Can Nicholas convince Poppy that being a Wife is better than being a Spinster?

Catching up...

So, I know it has been awhile since I have posted any books.  That doesn't mean I have stopped reading!  My summer has been so packed.  My family and I went on vacation to Mt. Rushmore and had a blast!  My husband, William, and I are both college students so we were finishing up summer classes.  Add to that two wild and crazy boys and two jobs, I am surprised I know what a book is!  I will be adding more to my blog as I go along but this is a small beginning and I hope it will continue to expand.  Thanks!
