I Close My Eyes
The last thing The Duke of Greystone wants is a wife, until The Lady Jane Blackmore seeks out his quiet corner of Earl Braxton’s ballroom. But there she stands, attempting to shut out the rest of the world by simply closing her eyes, but the duke understands better than most that life is never that simple.
The last thing Jane wants is a husband, until she opens her eyes to find the scarred and much too handsome stranger secluded in her chosen quiet corner. Why can’t the obstinate man understand she just needs a brief moment of solitude before returning to face her tormentors? But no matter how many times she tells him to go away, he remains. So is it her fault that her father misunderstands the young duke’s intentions?
Whilst marriage isn’t on Phillip—as she learns the duke is called—or Jane’s mind, when society’s trials and tribulations come, they soon become each other’s touchstone, and by it discover that joy is tantalisingly within their grasp, although others seem intent on thwarting their every wish.

This is the beginning of a historical romance series that I will definitely keep reading. It was beautiful! Regina Puckett has captured me in her world of Lords and Ladies on their search for love.
Jane has a terrible home life. She often closes her eyes and imagines herself somewhere else. When she does this at a ball while hiding behind a pillar she is found by a Duke. From there the story takes some twists. Some are lovely and some are horrible.
Excellent story. On to the next one. 😊

Hum..... Where to begin. I enjoyed the story line and the main Heroine. These were the redeeming factors of this book. The writing was ok it just felt to rushed and disjointed almost like parts were missing. Transitions were not smooth and things happened too quickly. It was also very unbelievable. The bad guys just didn't have a good enough reason for what they did. All the other characters were not well developed, even the leading man. This was clean-ish. The Hero referred to body parts and lusted after his wife a little too often, so not squeaky clean. There is a way to write that, that is not so explicit. I won't be reading another of her books.

Wow. I didn't know what to expect from this book, since this is the first book of hers that I've read. But I couldn't put it down. These characters are going to be with me forever.

Take one duke who is reluctant to marry and continue his ducal line; add another duke’s daughter whose every social appearance ends in disaster due to her seeming clumsiness. Place both in a quiet corner of the Earl of Braxton’s ballroom where the lady (Jane Blackmore) seeks to shield her ruined gown behind some large potted ferns unaware that she is not alone. She closes her eyes to escape the venue and mentally retreats to the one place she loves above all others – a cottage by the sea. Her brief respite is interrupted by the Duke of Greystone who is captivated by the winsome miss. Now add in a jealous young woman and a vengeful stepmother and you have a terrific romantic story awaiting your reading pleasure.
I Close My Eyes follows the usual storyline of happiness after overcoming personal trials and tribulations. The characters are endearing or vengeful, depending on their role, and the ending is one you won’t want to miss.
Author Regina Puckett wastes little time on superfluous description as her story is concisely woven. If you enjoy historical romance, don’t miss this one!

Amazing!
I absolutely love this story, it has it all happiness and sadness done so well. The characters life's aren't a fairy tale they are everyday people who go through the same struggles many people go through. This story draws you in and you can't stop reading. I will probably be reading this story again because of how well it was written!!!

What a touching novel by Regina Puckett. It was short and filled to the brims with warmth and love the two main characters had for each other. Her novel truly demonstrated that despite being set at a time when marriages were business transactions and contracts, it so happened that two people could find love.
Puckett also touches upon the immorality and inhumanness of the top of the aristocratie; how power hungry and entitled so many of them feel; how they are blinded by titles. It is clearly demonstrated on multiple occasions that these members of society will stop at nothing to achieve what they set out to do.
I enjoyed how Puckett alludes to the fact that being yourself and not forcing yourself to fit the mould society expects you fit, you can not only find happiness, but love. I think that this is even true today; that people are oppressed and sculpted bu society, when in reality, we should just be ourselves.
Overall, a great, heart warming book that proves that love and kindness conquer all.

Excerpt: 'Phillip ran a finger down her cheek and whispered, "Where do you go to when you close your eyes?" Jane opened them and stepped away. "Sometimes I just have to run away, but then I open my eyes and here I still am."
In the late 1800's a woman was expected to obey her parents and do what society expected of them. Jane manages to resist at every turn what is expected of her when she knows in her heart what she must do to remain true to herself. She meets every challenge with courage and grace for a young woman who is expected to fold and withdraw. Her strength of character, which the author, Regina Puckett portrays with such depth and heartwarming emotion makes this story one to savor and enjoy until the very last page. A very talented author indeed.

Overall, the story was interesting and the main characters were likable. The villains were truly horrendous. There were a lot of typos, which I found to be somewhat distracting from the story.

What struck me was the legitimacy the author gave the story’s characters for the time period. We’re shown the struggles and social etiquette of royalty in short, but effective glimpses that help bring the characters to life. I Jane, we’re introduced to a young woman who is similar to Cinderella in many ways with a wicked step-mother and a rival that could easily be an evil step-sister.
While Jane struggles to maintain her dignity against the onslaught of bad luck and vindictive socialites as she’s thrust into a marriage she didn’t want, we’re introduced to Phillip and his struggle to purify the family name in the only way he can think of. I’d go into more detail, but I don’t want to give away too much. Sorry.
The story itself is fast paced and an enjoyable read, but that’s also the downside. There were a couple of instances where I would’ve enjoyed seeing scenes expanded and given more teeth. One example is there are a couple of characters that I would’ve liked to see their downfalls chronicled in greater detail, but I understand how that could have slowed the story and taken away from the readers’ perceived occurrences.
This is a highly enjoyable read, and I enjoy seeing the author slide effortlessly from one genre to another. I can’t wait to read more of her stories.

A sweet historical romance
Regina Puckett did some homework on this researching traditions no longer practiced (thank the stars). I'm not big on romance but when my longtime Goodreads friend offered it for a free read, I thought I'd see if it matched her steampunk books, which I'm now a fan of.
If you are the type that likes history and romance, you will not be disappointed.

I love this book! I started it and finished it in one sitting. I just couldn't put it down. When it started I was amused with Jane's character and her hiding behind the ferns. And Philip's teasing her was so sweet. The story went from sweet one moment to how mean the people of the ton could be. Jane's step-mother and father were absolutely horrid. When I become so wrapped up in the people in the book that I laugh with them and cry with them it's has been a wonderful moment in time.

Review of ‘I Close My Eyes’ by Regina Puckett
Lady Jane Blackmore, attending the Earl of Braxton’s ball, searches for a place to hide, her gown ruined by drink stains, caused by her nemesis, Violet. To her dismay, she discovers she is sharing her hiding place with a very handsome man, save a scar on his face. As they’ve not been properly introduced, Lady Jane is scandalized, and fears for her future on the social scene.
The man quickly calls in a mutual friend to arrange for them to properly meet. Lady Jane knew the friend, Robert, the Viscount of Worthington, but doubted he recalled her. She soon found herself introduced to Phillip, the Duke of Greystone.
Then, things get worse. Lady Jane’s father, His Grace Stratton Blackmore, the Duke of Rutherford, levels unfounded accusations against the Duke of Greystone, but to Phillip’s surprise, he also berates his lovely daughter without mercy.
But, Lady Jane is aghast when Phillip declines to defend himself against the most serious of the charges leveled by Stratton Blackmore – that Phillip killed his father.
The evening continued downhill from there. Suddenly, Lady Jane finds herself betrothed to a complete stranger, Phillip, the Duke of Greystone.
Will Phillip rescue Lady Jane from her uncaring father and her devious, hateful step-mother? Her hopes are dashed when she discovers Phillip doesn't want children. Was she to be a wife in name only, well provided for, but otherwise on her own?
But, all is not as it seems. Can there be happiness amid the pain? Does Lady Jane’s step-mother succeed in murder? And, what of the nemesis, Violet? Does she get what’s due her?
This delightful short story, with its equally delightful surprise ending, is a wonderful read. There is nothing ordinary or routine about Phillip and Jane’s relationship. I give Ms. Puckett’s offering a well-deserved 5-stars.
Disclosure: I purchased a copy of this book. All thoughts, opinions, and ratings are my own.

I enjoy reading about the Regency period in historical fiction and I especially loved this book. Jane and Phillip's story is a sweet-attraction-at-first-sight saga that eventually changes to love, but it's also a healing of hearts tale that left me with a good feeling. Of course, their journey to that all-consuming love and healing wasn't without its share of controversary and characters who wanted to ruin everything for them. I find it interesting what society dictated for their nobility during that time period. Any least little thing could sully a person's reputation. That was just one of the many problems Jane and Phillip had to deal with. I won't list them all because discovering what the author threw at them and how they handled things was what made this story great. The author did an amazing job with a surprise ending.
July 10, 2017
A nice period romance. Regina weaves a beautiful tale. It's sort of a Cinderella story with Jane at the center, but the whole hate angle adds new twists and turns to it. One sees how hatred can run so deep that people will go to any length to get what they want. But fate has other things planned for them.
All in all a good read.
All in all a good read.

Five stars!
I don't usually give five stars to romances that are not steamy. However, this story was just so sweet, with the characters love for each other. Staying with one another through everything that happens.

Sweet story
A sweet love story. It's a quick read. Both of our main characters are so easily likable that you root for them from the very beginning. And the ending left me a little misty eyed.

This book had me giggling and crying from how sweet and sincere it was. The family drama was wild, which made the sweeter moments between the two main characters oh so sweeter. Definitely worth the read!

Lady Jane Blackmore is introduced to the reader after she has hidden herself away in a corner of a ballroom and closed her eyes to 'escape' the many mortifying things that plague her when she is out socially. The author had me at that point. What a very young female thing to do... close your eyes so no one sees you! Yes it may seem childish but the way the author has presented disasters already in her very recent past, I can fully understand this way of escaping. I may have done so myself in the past. Lady Jane is interrupted by a handsome stranger who sees the humor of the situation and refuses to leave before they have been properly introduced. He pulls a friend of his into the corner, who introduces Jane to Phillip, The Duke of Greystone. They are discovered, and before a scandal can even begin, Phillip and Jane are wed. Then the story gets more interesting. Much is revealed about the past of both families, and time goes by until finally Jane and Phillip are together again. I really don't want to give anymore away.

What an unexpectedly brilliant piece that captured me the moment I began reading it. Set in the 1800s England, the story involves a young woman desperately trying to escape from her tormenting family and happens to catch the eye of a nobleman. Puckett's clean, concise and highly descriptive writing and charismatic characters bring to life another world. While I rarely pick up this kind of genre, I found this novella to be compelling and amazingly told. Wonderfully done!

Bittersweet and Happy-Sad
This romance tells the love story of Jane and Phillip. Both have abusive fathers and neither one of them cares for adhering to the strict rules of the era the society they live in. I enjoyed reading it and that's saying a lot because romance novels aren't my favor genre. It was well-written despite a few typos. I loved hating Jane's stepmother and the psychopathic sow, Violet.

Writing style?
Many, many, many mistakes. All over the place, really. No infinitive when it was needed, wrong tense, your vs you're, then vs than, no negation when it was needed, wrong name once,...
Plot?
Great. Drama, love, friendship - definitely recommendable.
Characters?
Loved Jane, liked that she wasn't overly fond of society and that she had her own mind. Didn't like how she judged that French designer. So rude and awful.
Other than that, I was pretty fond of this historical romance :D

Where do I begin?
This was too rushed; too short. There's no development of the relationship between the couple.
No chemistry between them.
I would love to see the antagonists being properly punished. Their state left somewhat 'hung' / unfinished / unfair. So unsatisfying.
Hero was not the 'alpha' I would usually go for. He's too nice.
No angst.
Overall: an easy read, s'all.

I Close My Eyes tells the story of Jane and Phillip. Jane is the only daughter of a Duke, married for over 10 years to Jane's stepmother, who has gone out of her way to make Jane's life as difficult as possible. Her father does nothing to stop this, in fact, he supports her stepmother in every way. Phillip had an abusive father who had recently died in 'strange' circumstances, although the gossipmongers of London know exactly who was to blame! These two come together in unusual circumstances, but a bond is quickly forged between them. They are both honest, and there are no unnecessary dramas between them. However, the best-laid plans tend to go awry when emotions come into play - especially at a time when social etiquette could make or break a person's reputation.
This sweet story is very well written, with plenty of descriptions of both characters and places to keep you occupied. Full of action and tenderness, it is a charming story set within society's rules, although Jane and Phillip do love to break the rules together. With happiness and sorrow, this is a book that is sure to delight. Definitely recommended by me.

I enjoyed this romance that is a bit more than your average love story. Lady Jane Blackmore isn't happy with her life, especially her stepmother. She is surprised when she meets Phillip, Duke of Greystone and he has a way to take her away from at least some of her problems, but the last thing she expected was a marriage proposal. The author delves into some interesting characters and their past lives as the Jane and Phillip become husband and wife. As always Regina Puckett delivers a great story in a well written book.
