review 1: This romance read started with a feisty Jocelyn pointing a derringer on the cold & unfeeling Duke of Calydon, Sebastian. All Sebastian sees is a hellion with an inner fire that gets him hard! She is pissed off because his brother (book #2 in the series), Anthony, teased her with marriage & her dad's estate is falling around her young siblings' ears. Sebastian sees what he wants & totally agrees to marry her. Sebastian believes all females are lairs & unfaithful, courtesy of his mom, her lover, that she marries after only 3 months after his Father's death, & the discovery of his brother & sister's true father. These 2 have absolutely no problems in the bedroom, desk or even a couch, as Jocelyn inner HO is unlocked by Sebastian's lips, tongue & glorious hands. When they are ... moreout of the bedroom, it sucks royally! I read this book after The Irresistible Miss Peppiwell, which is book #2 in this scandalous series, but I think I enjoyed it that way. Either book stands alone, but Ms. Reid teases you with her writing style & she make you CRAVE the next book. I think Ms. Reid could write cliffhangers for TV shows, like Sleepy Hollow or the scandalous Scandal! Ms. Reid gifted me with so many "PULL THE FIRE ALARM" & pantie melting scenes that I needed a chocolate fix ASAP! I loved both of her books in her Scandalous House of Calydon series & I am waiting, NOT SO PATIENTLY, for Connie's story. I must give my top score of 5 fingers up & 10 toes & I am even adding my furry reading buddy's 4 paws into my score because she had a derringer as a fairy Godmother & that my peeps takes writing talent!
review 2: Refreshing Victorian romance! 4 starsTHE DUKE'S SHOTGUN WEDDING is a wonderful historical romance, written by Stacy Reid. This is the first book that I read by this author and it won't be the last one! It is the story of Jocelyn and Sebastian, set in England's Victorian era! I liked her two main characters. Jocelyn is a bold and strong minded person, who wants justice done because of the humiliation she had to live. She had been promised in marriage to Anthony, Sebastian's brother; but Anthony decided to marry another woman. She desperately needs a husband and hopes that in meeting Sebastian, he will understand her predicament and offer a money settlement. So she offer him a proposition that he will not be able to resist and accepts her deal. Sebastian is passionate and handsome Duke, will their new relationship be intense? Will this arrangement please Jocelyn and Sebastian? Can their marriage survive under these conditions? This was a short novella, very well written, with a good plot and lovable characters. I am looking forward to read her next novella! less
