A Night to Surrender

“An engaging love story with strong, believable characters. I can’t wait to read the sequels!”
—Mary Balogh

“Prepare to fall in love.”
—Julia Quinn

Presenting the winner of the Avon FanLit contest, the immensely talented Tessa Dare! Tessa’s first Avon historical romance, A Night to Surrender, is a love story to remember—kicking off her wonderfully inventive Spindle Cove series, set in England’s Regency Era in a small seaside resort town that caters specifically to ladies “of good breeding and delicate constitution.” Fans of Lisa Kleypas, Christina Dodd, and Liz Carlyle will delight in the passionate chaos that ensues when a dashing British officer, under orders, “invades” this community of strong-willed “spinsters,” only to discover he’s met his match in Miss Susannah Finch!

Clever writing, great narration

What a superbly clever written book. It had some great lines that truly made me laugh out loud. The storyline was also well thought of and characters well developed. As much as I try not to read books in a series I’ll have to make an exception in this case. If the next two books are as filled with clever one-liners, then I can’t wait. Can’t believe I got this book on sale for $4.99 but once the sale is gone, it will still be worth the credit for those who are looking for not just a good story, but light humor.

Great fun read with great narration!

Loved the start of this new story - keep writing Tessa!
Love the mix of humor, romance and characters
Thanks

Funny and sensual!

The story was fun, had me laughing out loud and sharing with my husband. There were a few scenes I thought far fetch, but was still enjoyable. I have just started reading Tessa's books, but I'm becoming a fan! :)

The narration made the story droop I think.

The story was nice, but I'm more interested I think in the world Dare has created in Spindle Cove than these two particular characters; and I don't know if that's writing or narration or perhaps both. The narration, though adequate, was too austere for my taste--it took the sparkle out of the dialogue. Once I got used to it I could enjoy the story better, but overall this one was a bit lackluster for me.

Laughter through the tears

It isn't often that you find an author who can combine all of your emotions. Tessa never fails to do just that.
