To Pleasure A Duke
Sara Bennett

Reviewed by Kathyrn Little

Romance Historical

Another great historical romance from author Sara Bennett. In TO PLEASURE A DUKE, the reader meets Eugenie, a young woman whose heart has already settled on the man she is to marry. The only obstacle? The man in question doesn't even know and currently has a lot on his plate. Sinclair has a dukedom to worry about, along with a dowager and sister, neither of whom are easy to handle. He doesn't know quite what to make of the stubborn, determined young woman with an outrageous proposition. Luckily for Eugenie, she is not a young woman who is easy to forget. Sinclair finds himself thinking about her rather than more eligible young women. TO PLEASURE A DUKE makes for a passionate romance. Eugenie and Sinclair bring to life the Regency fairy tale for the reader. The love scenes are realistic and the growing relationship is just that, growing and not instantaneous. The challanges the dowager and Sinclair's sister throws his way keeps the story fresh and exciting. The author's writing style is engaging and enjoyable, persuading the reader to continue turning pages long into the night.

SUMMARY

It has taken Eugenie Belmont but a moment to decide who to marry. Unfortunately, the gentleman in question, the Duke of Somerton, hasn't yet offered -- a mere formality for a confirmed member of the Husband Hunters Club of Miss Debenham's Finishing School. Like her friends, Eugenie is unwilling to wait demurely until the perfect mate happens by. And, despite the handsome duke's imposing reputation, she can feel his heated glances in her direction are charged with desire. . . and possibilities. Saddled with a dukedom, a haughty dowager, and an irresponsible younger sister, Sinclair St. John is far too occupied with important matters to indulge in romantic whims. But for the first time in his life, a brazen temptress has him utterly distracted. He could -- and he should -- dismiss her and court someone more befitting his station. But he is irresistibly drawn to this bewitching woman. . . and must match her game of seduction, move for passionate move.
