Summary

The course of true love never did run smoothly - not when it involves a duel at dawn, a fight with a monkey, and mysterious goings-on at a séance.

An unexpected encounter.

Lucius Valentine has vowed to marry. Being an only son, duty and obligation weigh heavily on his shoulders. But how does a man choose a bride when his heart is devoid of emotion?

Deciding on the widow, Lady Durrant, he soon realises he is not the only gentleman vying for her attention. The conflict ends in a dawn appointment where a surprise encounter sends Valentine’s marriage plans awry and throws his ordered life into turmoil.

Even strong women crave love.

Miss Ava Kendall has a hell of a game trying to keep her wayward brother out of trouble. In rescuing him from his recent escapade, she is thrown into the path of the enigmatic Lord Valentine. The man is charming, intelligent, beyond handsome, and clearly unused to dealing with a woman possessed of a sharp tongue and original mind. Gentlemen of his ilk usually avoid the bluestocking types. So why does he stare at her with hungry eyes? Why does their verbal sparring awaken a passion more profound than anything Ava has experienced before?

A wild adventure leads to a passionate affair.

After the theft of his mother’s prized blood ruby, Valentine is tasked with finding the culprit. And who should be on the list of suspects? The outspoken Miss Kendall. All evidence points to her guilt. But there is more to the mystery than meets the eye and the couple find themselves embroiled in plots of murder and blackmail. While their attraction deepens amidst the chaos, a villain is busy working behind the scenes to ruin their happy ever after.

Features:

  • Regency historical romance novel
  • A novel of approx 70,000 words
  • Contains some descriptive sex scenes

Valentine's Vow

Another good book by Adele Clee. She certainly keeps you guessing as the story unfolds. Lord Valentine is captured by female machinations. Enthralling and intriguing.

Melodramatic and totally Unbelievable.

I think the author has run out of ideas, so put this "mish mash" together. I read the first two books and enjoyed them, but will not bother with rest, on this experience.
It is filled with alot of gratuitous sex, physically and mentally. In fact there is alot of mental cogitation, " should I shouldn't I" " will I won't I" and so on. The heroine is portrayed as a sensible, efficient woman and turns out to be an idiot. I am not sure; whether she has been waiting for a tall dark haired, blue eye, honourable man, to come along. Enabling her throw herself into the most ridiculous situations, so that she can be save, or she is just plain dumb. As for the hero, it is any-bodies guess, so his father was mental disturbed, he left home to escape his memories, but found they came with him. he loves his mother will do anything for her as he knows what she has suffered, yet he leaves her for years. Then there is the brother, not worth the effort of comment.
The narrator has a wispy voice, so adds to the drama, I don't know whether it is naturally or she felt the book needed it.
