Regency Romance Bundle 1: Strong Women With Dominate Lovers

by Virginia Vice

Rakish noblemen bringing strong women to finally swoon for a worthy lover. This bundle includes three steamy historical romance titles: Satisfying The Duke & Her Debts She refuses to be ruined by her father's debts Lady Isobel Duskwood finds herself swimming in a sea of indebtedness after her father's tragic passing. Vowing to protect her family's estates, she looks for a match that can save her family's good name. But her father's debts are held by none other than Lord Brighton, the Duke of Norbury. A well-known scoundrel, Lord Brighton is widely thought to be unrefined and an unsuitable match for the prim and proper Isobel. Shocked by a scandalous offer that would cancel her debts, Isobel seeks other means of satisfying her family's obligations. Suddenly exposed to the true character of other men seeking her hand, however, she finds an unexpected protector in the Duke. The rogue of a man introduces Isobel to a primal, pure form of attraction, showing her how to let loose both her heart and her body. This is a steamy 50,000-word Regency era romance novel with a HEA and female main character who is strong enough to think for herself. Taming The The Duke Falls In Love With A Sharp Woman Viscountess Emma Goodwin is at the forefront of the suffragette movement as the British Empire lumbers through the second decade of the 20th Century. With only a few bankrupt estates attached to her title, she is caught in the vise of a world where women are expected to "know their place" and suitors for independent ladies are few and far between. To make matters worse, her overbearing mother is pressuring her to find a match to shore up the family finances. Declan Hughes, the third Duke of Dawsbury, is an unlikely match for the Viscountess. Macho, stubborn, and a well-known playboy, rake and scoundrel -- he is everything she dislikes in a man. Seeing her courtship as the ultimate challenge before settling down with a woman who can finally match him, he sets his sights on her, and in the process strives to become the man she wants him to be. This is a 20000-word novella involving an strong, self-assured viscountess and the masculine duke who falls in love with her. Sex scenes and HEA included. Trained By Her Darling The Maid Earns His Undying Love When her aunt found her a position in the Duke of McClellan's household staff, Audrey Fisher was excited to be entering the service of such a distinguished nobleman. His reputation for both charm and generosity fills young Audrey's head with silly daydreams of being swept off her feet. Of course, no duke would stoop to court a maid. That only happened in fairy tales. But it turns out the virile young Duke wants his new maid to do more than just polish his silver. Being the hands-on type, he's going to train the young, chaste, virginal maid himself. And to his own surprise, he finds himself needing her with every fiber of his being. This is a 23000-word novella involving an innocent maid and the dominating duke who falls in love with her. Kinky BDSM scenes and HEA included.

[Douglas Williamson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a collection of three stories set in the regency era. All three are fairly quick easy reads and feature some steamy sex scenes. But the themes themselves vary a bit.

My favorite by far was the "Trained by Her Darling Duke" story. Our heroine is young and naive and the Duke is indeed a rake. And what follows is the expected seduction of our young miss. As a bonus (for those that like such things such as myself) there are spankings, submission and bondage thrown in the mix. All producing some nicely steamy scenes throughout.

My one complaint is that it was a slow and somewhat tedious start. Every character our heroine encountered for the first quarter of the book went on and on (and on!) about the Duke's proclivities. The reader should have received the message after the first or second repetition. But once we meet the Duke, things perk up, so to speak, and the story gets interesting. And everything wraps up with a nice HEA.

The other two feature strong women, domineering men, and steamy sex, but not so much in the D/S department.

Still, hard to go wrong with a story collection. Recommended for those that like an erotic romance.

Three erotic romances with dominate men and submissive relationships, two of the stories with BDSM. The three stories are: Satisfying the Duke & Her Debts: Trained by Her Darling Duke: Taming the Viscount: Each had enticing, enchanting astute men with beautiful engaging women. The stories take you from noble ladies to maidservants. All the women had strong ethics and personality. However, when with the domineering men they had a penchant toward submissiveness. Each male was caring and romantic. Each short novella had an HEA, usually ending with a wedding planned. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
