review 1: This story was not just a love story but also a story of women's rights, or lack thereof in the 19th century. Poor Verity, she was trampled on left and right, and it made this story so painful to read. Not like your typical romance with just a little twinge of angst. No, this rea...

review 1: Castleford is definitely one of the most entertaining characters that I have read in a romance novel in a very long time. When he makes appearances in Ravishing in Red, Provocative in Pearls and Sinful in Satin he has this Tony Stark like charm what with all the boozing, carousi...

review 1: Madeline Hunter is a relatively new-to-me author. Everything I've read of hers (so far) has been consistently very high-quality. This was no different. I'm torn between four and five stars, and my exceedingly minor quibble is below.Blurb: Audrianna's father was disgraced by a sca...

review 1: RATING: 2.5 stars-ish.Já há algum tempo que não leio um livro de Madeline Hunter, porque o primeiro que li dela não me encantou assim muito. Mas o tempo apaga muita coisa, e sendo Hunter uma autora tão popular entre o público português, decidi que talvez tivesse apenas pegado no ...

review 1: This is the best of the series yet! The storyline was interesting and I love how Celia's friends rallied around her despite the blemish to their reputations that could and most likely would happen if they were not friends with a certain duke. :). This is the story of 2 black sh...

review 1: Até agora este foi o mais fraquinho da série :/Não houve grandes desenvolvimentos, apenas segredos descobertos sobre o casal principal.Nada de grandes emoções ou peripécias.Tudo demasiado previsível.Se não fosse aquele parvo do Castleford a espevitar a coisa no final não sei como...

review 1: I'm going to simply chalk this book up to "just not my type of hero". I know a lot of readers don't like the heroin. I like her. I like her a lot actually. I find her endearing, well meaning, sad and broken a little bit and yes, childish and stubborn. But, that's who she is. I li...

review 1: Dangerous in Diamonds is the story of Tristan, the Duke of Castleford, and Daphne, the owner of Rarest Blooms. Tristan is quirky--only works on Tuesdays--but also very intelligent. Daphne is sedate, calm and collected, on the outside. Inside, she's highly intelligent and passiona...

review 1: I confess I just read this book for the second time--or was it the third? This was my first Madelyn Hunter book, as well as the first book in a quartet. All of the four heroines are introduced, and though the book stands alone, there are hints and foreshadowing of events in the t...
