Love it! Love it! Great author! My favorite book of hers. Love the main characters! In 1807 London, Duke Phillip Maddox blames Charlotte Cameron for her sister, his fiancée, jilting him at their betrothal ball. However, he learns that his older twin brother Justin, who died in childbirth, actually is alive. He was kidnapped by Laird MacKenna and was raised in the Highlands. Philip needs to know the truth.------ Charlotte travels by coach in a storm to see MacKenna who she met when he introduced ...more
A wonderful story. I really enjoyed it. It was refreshing to meet a pair of twins that were so unlike each other. That was different, original. Even the heroine wasn't annoying as they usually turn out to be. Charlotte was strong and did not cry or make a fuss at every single trifle. In fact, she actually took control of dire situations more than once. If I had any complaint it would be that they fell in love all too quickly for my tastes. There wasn't much development involved, especially consi...more

I read this out of sequence so not as enjoyable as if I hadn't read the last book already. Based on her previos novels, I was also expecting a little bit more from this storyline. There was so much build up in the first story to the characters extreme dislike for each other that I was expecting a lot of drama. And, I was left disappointed. Instead, they were in each other's arms within the first chapter.
I'm a bit disappointed with the ending, I was hoping for some epilouge to show what the Cameron Sisters says about the lovers. But then, I just have to find out by reading the next books. :)
The only downer in this book is that it seems like Phillip and Charlotte's love story was too fast paced. But other than that, it was cute. ♥
Great part of a great series. My particular favorite of the three.
Just awful. Superficial, empty and full of anachronisms.
disregard....haven't read this one yet. wrong review. sorry

Actual rating: 3.5 stars
A good, but not fantastic historical romance novel. Fast paced, had some nice action sequences, and the romance--while a bit quick to happen, in my opinion--was sweet and nicely done.

Begins in London 1807, continues to Scotland. A woman convinces her younger sister to jilt the duke and then finds herself caught up and falling in love with this "enemy"... Fun story, seems to be part of a series but not a problem.
This book started off really well, but dragged on and went downhill from there. Most of it was predictable and the dialog was very overdone in places.
Very funny book where Catherine falls for the very man she was determined not to like. I didn't realize this was a series book either.
Predictable but an easy read which is what I wanted.
Really enjoy this author, another great book
