Seriously, is no one else bothered about there being zero wagers in this book?

The Wallflower Wager (Girl Meets Duke, #3) by Tessa Dare

December 21, 2019 by narfna 2 Comments

Much better than her last book. And for once the hero isn’t a man who thinks he’s broken and thus doesn’t deserve love. She’s played that card way too often. The premise here is that Penny, the titular wallflower who resigned herself to being a spinster ten years before, has a ton of animals in her care, and her family is threatening to move her back to her ancestral home if she doesn’t: a) Get rid of most of the animals, b) Get a new […]

The Governess Game (Girl Meets Duke, #2) by Tessa Dare

September 28, 2018 by narfna 5 Comments

I do love Tessa Dare, first off. I need to say that right away. Also, that as usual, I’ve had a great time listening to a book of hers. They are always tongue in cheek, silly, and completely anachronistic, and sweet. BUT. There’s this one thing she does that she’s done in her last three published books, and I’ve had enough of it. This book is about Alexandre Mountbatten, who we met last book as Emma’s friend who sets rich people’s clocks to Greenwich Mean […]

My favorite Tessa Dare since Romancing the Duke.

The Duchess Deal (Girl Meets Duke, #1) by Tessa Dare

December 28, 2017 by narfna Leave a Comment

Sometimes I just really need a ridiculous, historically inaccurate Tessa Dare book in my life. Disfigured Duke (from the war!) wants heir so he proposes marriage to the first convenient woman, the seamstress who was to have sewn his former fiancé’s wedding gown? Sign me up. A historically accurate version of this book would have been so depressing. Emma (a seamstress, formerly a disgraced vicar’s daughter) would have worked her fingers to the bone, losing her eyesight by the age of thirty and then descended […]
