Alguien a quien amar

Por Sabrina Jeffries

Siete años antes, Louisa North fue la culpable de que destinaran a Simon Tremaine a la India. Ahora él ha vuelto y está decidido a meter en cintura a aquella niña rebelde que no sólo destruyó su reputación si no que le robó el corazón.
Como líder de las Damas de Londres, Louisa y su exaltado grupo de seguidores mantienen en jaque al mismísimo gobierno inglés creándole algo más que simples incomodidades. No obstante, existe en el monarca la férrea idea de que si consigue que Simon contraiga matrimonio con la chica, no sólo se reduciría el peligro que este grupo representa si no que además podría restañar una ofensa acaecida años atrás.
Pero Louisa no está por la labor de volver a caer bajo la seducción del que una vez logró hacer sangrar su alma. Su deseo de revancha y su humillación pública de entonces no le permiten perdonarle; pero si hay algo en esta vida que pueda con las intenciones de venganza, es el vigoroso poder del amor.

Another story right up my alley from Sabrina Jeffries. The hero and heroine both have secrets that torment them. Betrayal, angst, all the good drama. (4 stars)

For me there wasn't enough wit or romantic "chase" - and it had way too much of the hero and leading lady fighting for their own interests. - His in his quest to become prime minister and her with her reform of the prisons. I got just over half of the book and then skimmed the rest. - Though i enjoyed the notes between Cousin Michael and Charlotte at the beginning of each chapter. I may check out their book. If they have one.

Hero comes back from being GG of India, seeks former flame- natural daughter of the Prince of Wales. Good character, plot and background. Introduces woman centered contraception.

A thoroughly enjoyable story!

Louisa North is a beautiful, strong, passionate and kind heroine, and illegitimate daughter to an ornery king.

Simon Tremaine is a carefully raised and ambitious man who thinks he is incapable of love.

After ruling India, Simon returns home to England to take his place in English politics. When the King returns to his old antics, Simon is given one last task before he can be appointed to his desired position - get the stubborn Louisa to back down on her radical reforms and out of the King's way. Simon's obeyed the King before, but the beautiful and challenging Louisa is about to change everything.

Only a Duke Will Do is a delightful book full of romance and adventure. A must read!

This is my very favorite of Jeffries' books (so far). Simon is the perfect hero - arrogant, ambitious, handsome, with a dark past and ulterior (political!) motives for doing what he does. This book is well written and fast moving, and a great deal of fun - I highly reccomend!
