If you love steamy Regency romances that feature strong women of the era and determined, yet charming, male protagonists, then you are going to love this collection!
Each book is a standalone, sizzling hot story of approximately 80,000 words. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a sweet happily ever after.
Henrietta Harding was born in Atlanta, but she moved to Europe with her parents at the age of 7. She fell in love with France, and especially Paris, a city that inspired and continues to inspire her a lot.
No one is born a romance writer, but she got a good start. She has been writing since she was 4 years old; while other children had just started talking more fluently she had already written her first poem! She studied French literature at the University of Strasbourg where she met her husband during her second year in college.
Henrietta makes her home in Boston where she spends her time writing her own enchanting historical romances, and chasing around her dog for long hours, without even noticing. She truly believes the most perfect heroes and heroines are imperfect, and she rather enjoys torturing them before giving them a well deserved happily ever after!
I believe I have read some of these books before, but enjoyed them again. Some of the stories have second chance at love, wicked stepmother, and heroines with hidden depth. It is a good box set and will keep your interest.
You lost some stars in the first book of the set. I feel the hero was wrong in the approach. With young girls getting raped I can't see it being love. She was innocent.
