Taming The Duke
There Was Comfort in Her Touch…
A kind of healing that brought peace and stirrings of love where Dalton Warfield never expected to find them — within himself! But could he truly surrender to the graciousness that was Alicia Spencer — when he was the Duke of Wexton and she outcast by the Ton?
Alicia Spencer's first foray into Society had brought about her reputation's ruin — all through the scheming of one dowager duchess. Now her healing talents with horses had bound her to a passionate bargain with her enemy's son — Dalton Warfield, a man who'd courted her gift yet captured her heart…!

The book was an easy read, moved along at a good pace. Everything was wrapped up by the end. Clean romance with some mystery involved. And it involved horses. Also in my favorite time period, 1800s England. An overall good book.

The author didn't stay true to the manners and mores of the time period.

"«Siete la donna più testarda che…» iniziò, ma non concluse la frase, perso negli occhi nocciola che lo guardavano divertiti.
«Siete furba come una volpe, lady Alicia Spencer» commentò. Furba e bella, la donna più accattivante che avesse mai conosciuto. «Quattro settimane, siamo d'accordo, ma non un solo giorno in più» concesse.
«Grazie» replicò lei semplicemente.
Era diversa da tutte le altre, rifletté Dalton. Fresca, sincera, Alicia possedeva una grazia naturale che lo affascinava. Per un incredibile istante desiderò guardarla negli occhi per sempre. Era come incantato. Diavolo, quella donna era una sirena, una maga che poteva conquistare uomini e animali con i suoi incantesimi."

This book kept me interested, but many of these stories just run together.

This book was a quick read, and entertaining enough. It's mostly glances and feelings, with one sex scene. Though I enjoyed the horses and the intrigue. The writing isn't going to blow you away, but for a brief diversion it is a fun enough story.
