review 1: WHAT THE LADY NEEDS by Kasey Michaels is an Regency Historical Romance set in 1810 London, which follows Lady Katherine Redgrave and Simon Ravenbill. #2 in "The Redgraves" series, but can be read as a stand alone. See, "What An Earl Wants". Both Katherine and Simon are on separate missions. One to find a father's journal, that may hold the key to a conspiracy. The other the secret society that murdered his brother. Together, they find passion, reveal secrets long ago hidden, danger, and love. Sizzling desire,and a dangerous mission only bring these two closer together. Well rounded characters that are engaging as well as realistic. An intriguing plot. What's next, you ask, will the siblings ever find truth that has scandalized society for years? If you have read one of Ms... more. Michaels' stories do pick up this series you will not be disappointed. Received for an honest review from the publisher and Net Galley.RATING: 4HEAT RATING: MILDREVIEWED BY: AprilR, Review courtsey of My Book Addiction and More
review 2: My Rating: 4/5Not completely perfect, but still a wonderful read! What a Lady Needs was a book that mixed sweet romance with the intrigue of a secret devil's club.I really liked the first book in the Redgraves series, What an Earl Wants, so I was hoping to like this book as well. Though I didn't love it as much and I did book 1, I definitely liked this book. I love the Redgraves. That family is so lively and reading about them is a blast. And the whole premise of uncovering a secret society is positively thrilling. So, though I didn't adore this book, I really liked it.Kate was a great character. She was so hilarious. She was incredibly stubborn and, while that worked to her advantage sometimes, other times it just got her stuck in odd situations. Her reactions to everything that was going on had me cracking up. But, besides that, she was a strong, determined heroine. She was totally awesome.Simon was just as great. In the beginning, he was a serious, staid character. But, as his relationship with Kate deepened, he loosened up. He was clever, focused, and a force to be reckoned with. But, he was also sweet and absolutely endearing at times. He was a wonderful hero and I adored him.Kate and Simon were a wonderful couple. They seemed to balance each other out. They were so sweet. And things definitely got spicy on a few occasions. I loved them together-one of my new favorite romance couples.Val plays a big role in this book, and I already adore him, just from how he is in this book. I believe his story is next, and I'm so excited to read it. Adam, Jessica's brother, also showed up a lot. He was still so ridiculous that it was hilarious. His foppish ways had me laughing so hard. It was so funny. I hope he showed up even more in the next books because I just love his character. He totally cracks me up.The plot was the weak spot in the book. The first quarter and second quarter were fast paced and had me hooked. But the middle half dragged. Despite my enjoyment of the characters and their story, I didn't feel like anything truly important happened in the middle. It wasn't terrible, I wasn't tempted to stop reading at any point. But I did skim a little in some parts. So that brought down the book a little. However I still loved it. When the plot picked up, I was on the edge of my seat. The new revelations about the secret devil's club sent chills down my spine. I can't wait to read more revelations about it in the next books. And the ending was a sweet happy ending, with a nice lead into book 3.Other than the slow plot in some parts of the book, I really enjoyed What a Lady Needs. I loved the characters, the story line, the writing style. And I'm so looking forward to the next Redgraves book. To all romance lovers, you should definitely read this book.*Thanks to Netgalley and Harlequin for a copy! less
