review 1: I really enjoyed both these novellas, and I can't wait to check out the other Entangled historical romances. I also haven't read anything from these authors before, so I'll have to change that! Both stories were fun, although I did like the second one a bit more. My one complaint...

review 1: I've been tired with historical's because they're all obnoxiously predictable. This one is predictable in most ways, but thankfully it was very different in content. Not what I expected... and that's what made me keep reading. Honestly, it's probably only a 3, but I'm so impresse...

review 1: I loved this book. Right from the beginning the heroine cracked me up with her unique blend of scandalous book knowledge and complete lack of experience in reality. She was a breath of fresh air in a genre where heroines take themselves way too seriously sometimes. I didn't fe...

review 1: What a great start this book was to a new series set in the 1830's New York. What really set this book apart from the genre is that it doesn't take place in the beautiful drawing rooms and glittering ballrooms of the day instead it takes place in the slums of the Five Points are...

review 1: This was not even a novella. It was like picking up a book that was missing the entire first half. I wanted to read a love story. She skipped all the fun parts. And to top it all off, we didn't get to find out what happened to her brother. I checked out the missing chapters that ...

review 1: Once upon a Scandal is second in Marvelle's Scandal Series and I have to say I enjoyed it much better then the first. Remington's overly passionate and romantic nature is swoon worthy, although he is overly idealistic. Victoria is a wonderful character, and the 2 combined was e...

review 1: The best part of this book is that it's sent in a more unusual locale than the average historical book: 1830 New York. From the streets of the Five Points, to rich parlours, Ms. Marvelle brought history to life. The message from the author at the end of the book explains some of ...

review 1: Maybe 3-1/2. The thing that really held it back for me was that there was little to no tension between the hero and the heroine. They pretty much met and fell in love. The love story was sweet but not particularly "grand." Can't really tell you what "grand" is but I know it w...

review 1: I did enjoy this one, I really did, but there were a few things keeping me from enjoying it as much as I have enjoyed my latest reads, so when comparing this to them I felt compelled to only go with three stars. The idea of the romance was a good one, and the characters unique. T...

review 1: I had read a novella by Marville which I enjoyed so when I saw this book at the library I decided to give it a try. Sexual addiction due to becoming a Duke at 14 and having a mother who never loved his father seems a little far out, but I went with it. I just couldn't really get ...

review 1: When an author like Erin Knightley comments on your blog with a romance novel recommendation, you better well listen. Mr. T has no reason to lecture me. I’m no fool. And so Prelude to a Scandal by Delilah Marvelle made its way to my nightstand.Had it not been for the recommendati...

review 1: I was truly enjoying this book at the beginning but by time it ended I was perplexed. First, I loved Jonathan's character at the beginning and how he wanted and waited for Victoria and how they both shared their first kiss...I loved the letters that were written between them...no...

review 1: Lady Charlotte Chartwell is a self respecting widow – she really is. Right at this moment while trolling up and down the street you could not prove it to anyone including Charlotte but she knew at one time she had been. At that moment she was trying to find a man, any man who w...

review 1: I don't hand out five star ratings very often, but this book definitely deserved it. This is the second in a series set in the 1830's and revolve around an interesting group of people. There are dukes, thieves, boxers and even a missing heir. Here we had Matthew's story, who w...

review 1: I normally don't read series out of order, (have read the first in this series, still need the second) but couldn't resist the combination of a Polish heroine with strong feelings for her homeland and an English hero who struggles with urges toward self-harming to deal with the t...

review 1: Another fun installment in the School of Gallantry series. I really enjoyed the first two books, Mistress of Pleasure and Lord of Pleasure, so I'm pleased Delilah Marvelle is continuing the series! As usual, the hero and heroine are intriguing and entertaining. Caroline is more f...
