Review: How to Tempt a Duke by Kasey Michaels
From the back of the book: How to Tempt a Duke? By refusing to be tempted at all… He’d returned from war a duke.

Review and Giveaway: Mr. Darcy, Vampyre by Amanda Grange (New Author Challenge)
A MARRIED MAN IN POSSESSION OF A DARK FORTUNE MUST BE IN WANT OF AN ETERNAL WIFE… I have to admit that I struggled with this book. It took me a while to get into the story. But once I did, I was thoroughly entertained. The story is told from Elizabeth’s point of view and […]

From the straight adaptations of her novels (Emma and P&P are my favorites) to the Austen inspired versions (Bride & Prejudice and Lost in Austen). My favorite scene is the lake scene from the Colin Firth version of Pride and Prejudice. […]
