Something about Emmaline

by Elizabeth Boyle

Book Overview

Alexander Denford, Baron Sedgwick, is a gentleman to be envied.

Customer Reviews

The MOST FUN I've ever had reading! 10 STARS

I LOVED Something About Emmaline! I could not put this book down. Yes, the story is a little far-fetched, but so what. It was so much fun and I was thoroughly entertained. I love the way Ms. Boyle writes. I normally skim through the boring parts of books, but there truly weren't any. As a matter of fact, I re-read parts that I especially enjoyed (and there were many of them!) If you want to lose yourself in a fun, laugh-out-loud romp, with lots of twists and turns, then this is the book for you.

Made me remember why i read romances!

I had been reading pretty bad romances...finally I hit gold. this was actually good! In this book I see how much her writing had progressed. I think we can expect good things from this author in the future. The characters are blanced and I was very happy the leading lady wasn't so virginal that gets annoying! I can't wait to read her next book about Alex's devilish friend Jack!

A Great Read

I really enjoyed this book. I liked all of the characters and loved Alex. He was so stuffy and duty bound. Emmaline was just what he needed. I am glad to know there is another book pior to this one. I will be reading it.

Loved it!

I think this book works even if you don't know it's a prequel. I didn't and I thought it was great. Definitely a different sort of plot and heroine. The story held me to the end and I fell in love with Alex..just like Emmaline.
