Reseñas de la Crítica

"MacAlister brings wit and charm to her lighthearted fourth Noble historical." ( Publishers Weekly)

Someone please restrain this narrator.

Katie Mac has a strong bent toward the cutesy. This is something that can be totally beaten to death by the narrator who goes for the I'm an adorable, breathy, 6-year old, Marilyn Monroe. And Alison Larkin just can't let it go. I've read this whole series and was aware of the cutesiness quotient, but reading in my own head, it was survivable. Someone please restrain this narrator. She just destroys the book.

Short But Full Of Entertainment

This is my second venture with the author after "The Noble Intention" which also I like because the leading female character has the signature of the author which is saucy,funny,courageous, and witty, which in my opinion, in real life I wouldn't find a single female dare or have a gut to say it aloud.
As usual Allison Larkin is always giving her very well performance to voice the characters and make the story always enjoyable.

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK

This book was pure entertainment. Nothing to think about such as historical correctness or any hidden messages, etc. This is one of those books you either love it or hate it. I loved it. The main character sounds to be very fluffy and dumb, however, when you get beneath the layers...something different emerges. What I liked the most is they get together early in the story and there isn't any of the angst and occurrences that would keep them apart. Just the right about of steamy moments, however, made lighter with the humorous banter taking place. I found myself laughing out loud at many moments in this story. The narrator did a good job and made it even more enjoyable. Worth the credit or purchase? I think so...anytime I can be entertained without having to think too hard is worth it to me!!

Silly Regency romance,very light adult read

This book reads like a spoof of Regency romance novels.
The H/H and the sub characters are ridiculous and the sexual content is almost constant. It does make you laugh at the absurdity of it all. If you're looking for a no brainer with plenty of ditzy characters,with a touch of mystery, this is for you.

I laughed out loud!

The series is hilarious. I love how it all came together and hope to hear more about the kids when they grow up.
