review 1: I read this book first, long ago, and out of order. I enjoyed Alex's story as he is a careless rake who is bitter about being the second son and therefore less worthy in the eyes of the ton. After a wager with his friend he attempts to get a kiss from the beautiful Lady Blythe, but find himself in a battle of wits with her older sister Emmeline. Before he knows it, it's Emmeline he wants to kiss and not her sister. But she's not too happy to find out about the wager. I loved both the characters in this book, the plot, the romance - all of it comes together very nicely for a very enjoyable book!
review 2: Re-Review: Sir Alexander Thornton where can I find a guy like you in our world today??? I mean, you've been a really really bad, bad boy! LOL.. Well this
... more second book of Gayle Callen's His series is very, very cool!The story goes...Alex Thornton is your average rake. Due to a wager he must get a kiss from a maiden. Not so hard but it IS difficult for her chaperone and sister is no other than the uptight miss, Lady Emmeline. Alex must win the wager, he must get the kiss and he must escape Emmeline...but through the game, his sights get set on not anymore a mere kiss from the little girl, but the heart of Lady Emmeline.My thoughts...I simply love Alex Thornton who happens to be Spencer's (His Betrothed) TWIN! *spolier?* Yes. Alex poses as Spencer in his stead so Spencer could work as the spy. But Alex was a known rake and he ruins Spencer's good reputation, like everyone expects...Emmeline did. But as the story goes on, we see the highs and lows of society and how society in general could be asses especially when ranking in society is what matters (like who's the influential Duke, who's not, etc.)Emmeline is such a sweet sister and a kind woman for taking Spencer as he is...not for what he did, or what he's not. This series just keeps getting better and better! less
