Another treat from Eloisa James!
I loved
DUCHESS
BY
NIGHT
because it was sophisticated, sweet and oh so sexy! It was wonderful seeing Harriet from the other DUCHESS books again and her adventures at the yummy Lord Strange's masquerade were classic romance with a fresh twist. Aside from the wonderful romance, it was also fun to watch Harriet explore the expectations of the male/female role in Georgian society. You can always count on Eloisa James for her sophisticated wit and delightful characters. I loved it!
Loved it!
This was a wonderfully witty, engaging story for me. From beginning to end, Harriet and Jem had my full attention.
There's a fencing scene that in my opinion is one of the cleverest and sexiest scenes in romance!
The characters Eloisa James's creates just keep getting better and better. In
Duchess
by
Night
it was very empowering to see Harriet go from a sad, lost Duchess to a woman sure of herself and in true love for the first time. Eugenia is one of the funniest children in fiction I've ever read. I hope one day to see her have her own HEA written by James. And well, Villier, what can be said other than with every book in the Desperate Duchesses series he gets better, just like fine wine.
I do recommend reading the first two books in this series; Desperate Duchesses and An Affair Before Christmas. There's incredible story and character arcs that flow throughout the entire series. Don't miss out on the evolution of these naughty Georgian members of the ton!

Ignore the cover! This book is fun!
Yes, I know books like this are hard to read in public because the cover is embarrassing, but it's worth it. Harriet was a great heroine, wanting to escape her boring life, and I loved the "girl masquerading as a boy" thing. The scene where she had the actress after her to make love made me laugh out loud, and the scene where Lord Strange taught her to fence was very sexy. This book was fun. I would have given it five stars, except for the cover.
