books

These are all from a few weeks ago; I haven't read much lately. I do have a couple of more serious things on deck!

Eloisa James, The Taming of the Duke (Avon, 2006). Unbelievable characters, but speedy and witty enough that I didn't mind, much.

Edith Layton, How to Seduce a Bride (Avon, 2006). Unusual premise, executed okay.

Jane Aiken Hodge, Marry in Haste (Dobleday, 1970). Rare use of actual history that doesn't annoy me. Also dealt reasonably well with childbirth and cross-country escapes with a one month old.

Carola Dunn, Lavender Lady (Walker, 1983).
Carola Dunn, Lord Iverbrook's Heir (Walker, 1986). Both on the theme of cosy county homelife appealing to citified men.
