ON THE DUKE’S ERRAND by Rebecca Connolly - - I tried to like the story. There were no glaring errors in grammar and the dialog was written well, but I just couldn't find myself liking the characters much or being interested in the story. There were some historical socio-political things shared that were kind of interesting to learn about, but the story dragged and didn't catch my interest or my heart.
VINGT-ET-UN | TWENTY-ONE by Nichole Van - - I liked this one a lot. I loved the way Eliza and Liam played the card game twenty-one betting "truths" and the way this became their way of sharing their hearts with each other. The story was sweet and the truth that came out was unexpected in some ways, though as I got further into the story I began to have my suspicions. The story was well done.
I KISSED A DUKE by Janelle Daniels - - Parts of this story were just plain sweet, and parts were a little too far-fetched for me to believe. I liked the way that Ethan treated Madeline and how he was charmed by her. I thought that Madeline and her attitude of not possibly being important enough to catch his attention was good. But Lady Louisa, for all her sly conniving, made some perfectly stupid mistakes that didn't fit.
