Customer Reviews

I disagree. I highly enjoyed it.

Lady Lucianne Gordon was commanded by Queen Charlotte to attend a grand masquerade she was holding. It would be the first time Lucy was seen in public since the humiliating scene in the park, two weeks previously, when she and her fiancé broke up! Unfortunately for Lucianne, Queen Charlotte was her godmother! And the queen intended to play the role of match maker. Lucy would be one of the main players in a game during the party so all the eligible men would see her in a fresh, new light (and hopefully court her afterward.) Things went well, until her ex-fiancé showed up, trying to woo her back. Lord Victor Oxenby was surprised when Queen Charlotte called his name as the one to participate with Lucy in a game! Lucianne was the sister of his best friend. In fact, he had watched Lucianne as she grew up. Yet once they had reached maturity, they cared nothing for each other. Victor planned to remain a bachelor and used his scars, from a horse accident, to his advantage. Neither Lucianne, nor Victor, expected to be wed by the end of the party! ***** The thing I find most fascinating is that the first half of the book IS the night of the masquerade! Only one night! However, the story is so incredibly written that the pages flew by in a blur! I still cannot believe how much time had past as I read! Those two facts alone prove this author is VERY talented and the book is awesome! Highly recommended! *****
