Amanda Quick like writing style

Sara Blayne wrote this novel and an earlier novel "Theodora" in a style similar to one of Amanda Quick's works. Strong, gutsy female and male heros, exciting storyline, and fun. She does get a little carried away with the cutesy, repetitive phrases like "conundrum" but I believe it will fade with time as she matures as an author. If you are a fan of Jayne Ann Krentz, aka Amanda Quick, you will enjoy both of these stories.

Perfectly Romantic and Funny

I found this book to be exceptionally funny and romantic. You couldn't hope for a better romance than the one that makes up the wonderful book, "Enticed". I personally don't know what "puzzled in Boston" was reading, but I do recommend them reading Jo Beverly's "English Titles in the 18th and 19th Centuries", for Miss was quite a proper title for Pandora Featherstone. You only use the "Lady" title when you are addressing the woman by her full name such as "Lady Pandora Featherstone". The "Miss" is reserved for when you address her by her last name, such as "Miss Featherstone". Sara Blayne, as always, has done an exquisite job on this book. I would recommend this to anyone who has a love for romance and humor!

Pandora and the duke share more than a love of conundrums.

An earl's daughter with four lively nieces and nephews to support, Pandora Featherstone supplements her meager income by offering her services as a "confidential inquiry agent." Chance True-Son Quincy Ridgeway, Duke of Rivenoak, seeks to discover the villain who ordered the massacre of his family and an entire Indian village. Thrown together in their quest for the truth, the duke and his "confidential inquiry agent" discover a "strong mutual physical magnetism" that transcends the duke's desire for revenge. But will he still feel the same when he discovers that her brother may have been involved in the massacre of his family?The heroine reminds me of those found in my favorite Amanda Quick novels: strong, intelligent, compassionate, unselfish, energetic, with a thirst for knowledge beyond the type of feminine pursuits typical of the time. Add an unconventional hero--a half-Indian duke with a sense of social responsibility beyond paying his tailor and collecting the rents--and a touch of mystery and danger, and you've got a recipe for a delightful romantic romp.And if you don't know what a conundrum is, well, you should have a pretty good idea by the time you finish this book!
