review 1: Lucas and Chastity were such fun characters to get to know. I loved the slow but steady build in their relationship. I appreciated how they each had their eyes opened to the possibility of a true love match. Initially I thought Lucas was caught up in a self-pitying role, but I was so wrong. He wanted to want. What a phenomenal line. (Thanks, Cecilia!) Chastity, on the other hand, was a very determined, very driven, very crafty woman who was quite intelligent. One could see that from the get go. I love strength of character in my heroines, so Chastity was perfect. (Thanks, Cecilia!) Lastly, I must say that I simply adored the passionate chemistry that these two had. The slow building led to that wonderful ending. Most excellent!!!Rating: 5/5Recommend: YesAudience: True roma... morenticsStatus: Clean (a spot of innuendo)Category: NovellaHEA: Yes
review 2: Cecilia Gray has done it again! An amusing and romantic regency story, An Illicit Engagement is a quick and easy read! Poor Lucas is known as the man who cannot make it to the altar, every woman leaves him for someone else! Chastity knows that the future of her father's shipping company rests in her ability to negotiate trade routes through an older single man. She needs Lucas to introduce her to that man. What they don't plan on is that together they might just fall in love! This is the second book in the Gentleman Next Door series, but you do not need to have read the first book to understand this one! I received this book for free and this is my honest review. less
