Customer Reviews

Excellent Debut Regency

This a stylish and enjoyable debut Regency. I have read all Ms. Cornick's books and what I like about them is their originality in such a popular genre. Perhaps TRUE COLOURS a little over-written in places - every noun seems to have at least one accompanying adjective - but this could be put down to the author's inexperience. The plot is exciting and the characters engaging. Ms Cornick is a fresh and welcome addition to the Regency writing scene.

THIS IS DEFINITELY A KEEPER!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED -- Don't pass up this book or any other by this author -- the stories are so refreshing and a delightful change from the contemporaries.You will thoroughly enjoy these characters and their story.Find out the truth behind the troubles and confrontations of James and Alicia and how the resolved them.

Traditional Regency

Harlequin / Mills and Boon have some gems in their backlist and this is one of them.From the back cover of the Mills and Boon large print edition: They shared a past... The first person the Marquis of Mullineaux meets upon his return to England is the very last person he wants to see - Lady Carberry, the woman who scandalised the haute ton by breaking off their engagement. She is just as displeased to meet the man who sacrificed her reputation to save his pride. Thrown together by circumstance, Alicia and James find themselves constantly at war with one another. James is determined to discover the truth about their past and only then does he also discover that behind their anger lies a passion that has never died.Glittering Seasons... country estates Matchmaking mamas...a Regency delight!
