| カスタマーレビュー: rich man/poor man (2008-12-17)  The action is great in the beginning and could have led to a better story. However, when a wealthy Duke folows the love of his life to move to a farm in Kansas, it becomes less believable and less romantic and more mundane.
The Heart Knows... (2008-09-17)  Two men meet and connect. One an aristocratic experienced rake and the other just graduated from high school.Although no one approves, especially the aristtocrat's mother. Wealth and power have privileges. When Devon leaves England under pressure Jay follows. The heart knows no boundaries. A beautiful love story where happiness is difficult and wonderful. Intrigue follows. Am looking forward to the second book. Romance or Ghost Story (2008-08-22)  I loved the first half to two-thirds of this book. The romance between the two main characters was stunning and charming and rather realistic (for a romance book), so I enjoyed it. Then the two guys got married in Canada (OK, so far) and moved into the ancestral home of one of them in Kansas. That's when it disappointed me. It became focused too much on a paranormal story (a ghost) instead of continuing the heretofore delightful romance between the two main characters. It even introduced a third character, James, the Duke's valet (etc.), who threw in a stunning (and totally believable) kink in the story of the romance. His story line could have really raised some engaging conflict between all the main characters and made it really interesting, but the paranormal piece of the plotline kept that from happening. I enjoyed the characters and the early part of the plotline; wish the last half of the book had been as much fun as the first half. If you like the authors, you'll find much to enjoy about this one, even if I thought it a bit flawed. To me, four stars, maybe three and a half, not the five stars from the other reviewers.
Regency Romance with a Twist 4.5 stars (2008-08-13)  I have a guilty little secret - I read Barbara Cartland. There's just something about a British noble (be he Duke, Earl, Marquis, or whatnot) winning his true love that tickles me. Such stories are surely the inspiration for this wonderful gay romance from Black and Carmichael. Jay is the Duke of Wharton. Much to his mother's consternation, he refuses to choose a duchess and beget heirs. Devon's mother is British, but he was raised in the U.S. by his father. While visiting England, his mother drags him to endless boring social gatherings to "network." When he meets Jay, sparks fly between them and quickly develop into deeper feelings. But the pressure of dating a media darling finally chases Dev back to the US - but Jay won't let him get away.Happily, the authors take care to actually develop a relationship between Dev and Jay. They date, spend time together and talk. And, in an unusual but delightful move, Dev is a virgin who intends to wait for a committed relationship before having sex. Bravo! This also adds angst to the story as Jay and Dev both struggle with their lust. When they do finally consummate their love, the poignant scene made my heart flutter. However, this simple romance takes a surprising turn when the two men marry and move to Kansas. Dev's family has a dark secret. The family house they've moved into may just be possessed by a malevolent spirit that wants Dev. A lovely romance blossoms into an interesting mystery with a lot of action and a clever plot. The authors' trademark hot sex is abundant, but the story is more than just window drssing for it. Though the novel has a nice conlusion, the problem of Jay's family doesn't fade away and the ending promises more from these two men in another novel or two. Highly recommended! The Duke's Husband (2008-07-31)  Jay Wharton is a man trapped by birth into a life that he doesn't want. Being a duke in present day England carries more social pressure that one would think and Jay can't wait to escape this life and his overbearing and disapproving mother. When Jay meets Dev its love at first sight - but will he be able to prevail against all the obstacles that fate places in his path Devon Brooks is young at nineteen - but he is old enough to know what he wants and it's not a casual fling that will leave him feeling cheap the next morning. However, when he meets Jay his feelings run deep but will he be able to stand up to Jay's mother's hatred and the constant scrutiny of the press As Jay and Devon embark in a new life together as spouses will they survive the malevolent machinations of the spirit that haunts their house Picking up The Duke's Husband is like unwrapping a surprise, as the book is not really what it seems from the blurb. The plot is packed with intrigue that centers in heritage and the power of true love. Jay and Devon are sensitive men that find in each other what they have been seeking. However, as they start their life together they are set upon by strange forces that are determined to pull them apart or see them dead. The Duke's Husband is a suspenseful book that will keep you turning the pages to see how the plot will resolve itself and to see if Jay and Dev will survive unscathed. For a book that will take you in unexpected directions pick up The Duke's Husband! Sabella reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed | |||||||||||||||||||||
