5.0 out of 5 starsWonderful!
Reviewed in India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ on 10 June 2018
The Duke of Ashbury is a scarred war hero. Emma Gladstone is a seamstress. She lands on his doorstep to claim money for a wedding she made for his ex-fiancee. The Duke is impressed by Emma's pluck and wit. Also that she didn't want to puke upon looking at his disfigured body. Sparks fly. The Duke ends up offering marriage to her with certain conditions.
1. It is a marriage of convenience.
2. They will have sex with no lights and no kidding.
3. When Emma gets pregnant, she will have her own house in the country to raise the child.
Emma begs to differ.
1. They will have dinner together every night.
2. They will have conversation.
3. There WILL be kissing.
The whole book is strewn with their carnal activities but it never goes overboard or sleazy. The chemistry between the two is clearly perceived and their fallible in love, a given. I loved the humor between the two protagonists. Usually the heroine, at some point feels scared of the hero, but not this one. Thank God. She gives as good as she gets which I liked. No simpering, no kow- towing, no nervous twisting of the hands.
I liked this book and would definitely recommend it.

If you love to see how two battered souls fall in and of course passion ka big part of it, then pick it up. Pick it up for dry wit and wonderful humour and then leave it without much expectation.

2.0 out of 5 stars Descriptive Porn
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 28 December 2019

This book started out great. After reading only the first few pages and listening to the narrator of the audio book, I downloaded the next two books in the series. Then about less than halfway through the book, I no longer enjoyed the content. And I returned all the audio books and deleted the ebook. Actually if you take-away the superfluous sex scenes, the book could have been a 4.5. She writes very well adding great humor. The main characters have great chemistry. The sex was way over the top. Women, don't complain if your men watch porn and read nudie magazines if you relish these type of romance books. Descriptive porn. There is no difference. Really! Even the epilogue had gratuitous sex. Some sexual situations are fine because it enhance the story. Mary Balogh does a very good job of incorporating sex in her books. But Tessa Dare.. maybe she needs to read Mary Balogh

2.0 out of 5 stars It is quite fun itโ€™s just not for me
Reviewed in the United Kingdom ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง on 9 January 2021

If you are just here for a good time then ignore me and go right ahead.

I did like that the book is lighthearted, fun and enjoys not taking itself too seriously.

However I also felt it was superficially written, lacking in substance and devolved very quickly into smut. I personally didnโ€™t finish it.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Duchess Deal: Girl Meets Duke
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 11 January 2022

The story was a teen age romance novel - hardly for grown ups to read except the intimacy wasnโ€™t suited for young readers. The story line was really lacking, the dialogue was immature and not at all resembling periodic conversation. It was painful reading for those reasons.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 6 September 2017
Verified Purchase
So very disappointing. Didn't feel like a Tessa Dare novel at all. The story was ok, a bit tired story line but could have been a quick, fun read. I just couldn't get over the language. Not only modern, but a bit teenagery. For example, they sit at opposite ends of a long dining table. She picks up her bowl and wine glass and goes to sit next to the H. He says "Really?". She answers "yes, really". There was another exchange that felt like it came right out of a Dr. Seuss book. The butler talks back to the Duke like a rude child throughout the book. Way too many other examples.

It was a disappointment. Not sure how it has such a high rating.

Just got the new Sherry Thomas and hope for a better read.

I wanted to return it but Audible did not allow it. Only thing I could use it for is to go to sleep. What audience is this written for?

2.0 out of 5 stars You may like this if you are in your teens.
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 14 March 2018

Let me start with the positive. I liked most of plot in the beginning, unrealistic as it was I do not read romance novels for their similarities with real life. I like the way this author writes, the dialogue, the descriptions of places and things. That being said, this book is silly, the concept of the Monster of Mayfair is so silly it almost made me stop reading. Maybe if I had read this 10 years ago I would be fine with most of the silly parts, but I felt my I.Q. dropping while reading this.

2.0 out of 5 stars I really enjoy Tessa Dare
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 25 August 2017
Verified Purchase
I really enjoy Tessa Dare. Her novels have wonderful character development and a natural flow most romance novels lack. However, this one left me feeling dissapointed. It is common to find the heros are often egotistical donkeys arse leaving the heroine to make up for it. It is a rare find when a hero is actually kind to the heroine... but this one never made up for it. The hero was not only an arse but he was an ugly arse. When I got to "I'm dying to take a piss" part I gave up hope.

2.0 out of 5 stars Beauty and the Beast with sex
Reviewed in the United States ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ on 27 April 2018
Verified Purchase
It started off sweet and I liked the interaction between Ash and Emma. The theme not unlike Beauty and Beast does a good job of how poorly those who are scarred are treated. However, there was way too much graphic sex throughout the book. At times I thought I was reading a porn book. I've read numerous books that are sensuous and have some sex but this was unbelievable. I was going to pre-order her next book, but I cancelled. I only regret I paid $4.99 for the e-book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Soft core pornography

This is fun but the only one would know if takes place in the past is it includes a duke, duchess, King, etc. It has none of the charm of Regency novels. The repartee is amusing and people may enjoy to endless sex scenes!
