This was a fun duet. I really enjoyed Tessa Dare’s but that isn’t surprising to me. On the other hand, this was my first Christi Caldwell and I liked it a lot! Will be checking out more from her.

I wanted to like this one more than I did. It had potential but could have been better.

His Bride for the Taking by Tessa Dare
I liked this one. It was very sweet. Sebastian has been in love with his best friend's sister forever and she who was older never noticed him. And then when she is left at the altar he marries her instead to save her reputation. I mean what a wonderful guy! Also what horrible times when it means being left at the altar ruins her rep cos people will think they did things before.
Most of the book takes place in a little cottage. Oh one part at the beginning made me snort. It was so funny. But they will get to know each other more and more *wink wink* They will have some hurdles to get over and some truths will be had. But it is a funny one.
Oh I almost forgot...Ikea. That is all I am saying *snorts*
His Duchess for a Day by Christi Caldwell
I had a harder time with this heroine. She left her new husband and stayed away for 10 years. Was he an ogre you ask? No, he was her best friend. And then when he shows up she has the nerve to think ill of him cos she has seen his name in the scandal sheets. You left him, for 10 years! He did not know whether you were dead or alive!
Of course we do learn things further in that makes me forgive her a tiny bit, a tiny bit. He is still a great guy all way through. All men should be that steadfast. He loves her and he wants her back.
All in all:
Great Dukes!
Narration
The ever awesome Justine Eyre narrates and you might have notice that I do like her style. She can not do anythign wrong

- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
