Book Reviews of Duchess By Night

Book Review: Deserves Zero Stars
Summary: 1 Stars

This is one of the worst books of any sort I have ever read. The plot is worn out, shallow and contrived. The book is filled with the dullest and stupidest converstaions one can imagine. The main characters are bland, dull and not particularly appealing. The supporting characters are even more lifeless.
There is no electricity between the hero and the heroine. The final confrontation between the two is implausible.

We are told at the beginning of the story that the hero, Lord Strange, is dissipate and runs 24/7 orgies in his house. Then we learn that he has never slept with another woman since his wife died. And - hear this - he is only inviting light-skirts into his house because his dead father would have wanted it!

The dull duchess at the center of the story is a wallflower, but this supposedly attractive male falls for her ont he spot. It is not clear why.

And one can only guess at the purpose of the other two duchesses in the story.

I think this book is an insult to romance readers.

I skipped through till the end just because I wasted eight dollars on it, but this is the last I will ever buy from Ms. James.

Summary of Duchess By Night

A Mischievous Charade . . .

Harriet, Duchess of Berrow, is tired of her title and the responsibilities that come along with it. Enough with proper tea parties and elegant balls; what Harriet really wants is to attend an outrageous soiree where she can unleash her wildest whims and desires. But to attend such an event—especially if the event in question is Lord Justinian Strange's rollicking fete, filled with noble rogues and rotters, risqu? ladies and illicit lovers—would be certain scandal. That's why she must disguise herself . . .

Looking forward to a night of uninhibited pleasure, Lord Strange is shocked to discover that beneath the clothes of a no-good rake is the most beautiful woman in the room. Why is a woman like her risking her reputation at his notorious affair? And can he possibly entice her to stay . . . forever?
