Love Unexpected
LOVE A TRIPLE TREAT ROMANCE BOX SET
Three Bestselling Authors, Three Romance Novels, One Great Price
THE STRANGER SHE MARRIED by Amazon bestselling author Donna Hatch
To save her family from debtor's prison, Alicia must marry the first wealthy man to propose. Her choices narrow to a scarred cripple with the heart of a poet, or a handsome rake with a deadly secret. Cole believes he is beyond redemption, yet cannot deny his attraction for the girl who touches his heart. He must protect her from the murderer killing her family before she becomes his next target.
THE SWEETEST KISS by Amazon bestselling author Marie Higgins
Lord Trey Worthington isn’t about to give his heart to a woman. He doesn't want a marriage like his parents. But when his mother brings a childhood acquaintance into the home to sponsor into society, Trey has to get Miss Faraday trained properly. The more he gets to know Judith, the more he yearns for something he doesn’t dare reach for. Judith is after a faithful husband—something Trey has been convinced most of his life he’ll never become. Judith is doubtful her dream will ever come true while living as the ward to the dowager duchess. However, the longer Judith is with the dowager’s son, Trey, an attraction blossoms. Judith now wonders if God has different plans for her life, because Trey doesn’t believe in the sanctity of marriage… the very thing Judith cannot do without.
THE DUKE’S UNDOING by Amazon bestselling author G.G. Vandagriff
Meet the Duke of Ruisdell, who has just returned wounded from the Napoleonic wars. He is weary, cynical, and very bored. Known as the worst rake in England, he finds he has no interest in upholding that distinction, when his friend, the Marquis of Somerset, proposes a "Five thousand guineas says that seducing Miss Elise Edwards will cure your ennui." Because his friend has just lost a packet to him, he agrees that the bet be posted in White's famous Betting Book. Thus begins a train of unstoppable events—dangerous, humorous, devilish, and amorous—that carry his life along at such a pace that the duke soon knows not whether he is on his head or his heels. And then there is that bet…

What a fun idea. Visit www.tripletreatromances.blogspot.com to learn more about it. Basically, they are putting out fun new collections of three books at one great price. I hadalready read all three book in this collection and thought I'd go ahead and review it even though it's not released until August.
The Stranger She Married by Donna Hatch (5 stars)
This is one of my favorite books! I've read it multiple times and plan on reading it many more times. Definitely a favorite in this collection and one I would recommend. This is a great start to a great series!
The Sweetest Kiss by Marie Higgins
A fun regency story of childhood frenemies meeting up as adults and falling in love.
The Dukes Undoing by GG Vandagriff
A fun start to a fun series. This is an enjoyable, lighthearted regency. I like the courtship between the Duke and Miss Edwards.
Overall, this is a fun regency collection.

Read THE DUKE'S UNDOING in this box set and can't wait to read more. I've read a couple of books from Donna Hatch and have enjoyed them, and another book from Marie Higgins. Looking forward to finishing this collection.

This review for Love Unexpected by G.G. Vandagriff
Love Unexpected, a Regency-era mystery, is part of a new series, yet it contains some beloved characters (and one that we love to hate) from some of the other books by G.G. Vandagraff.
Marianne’s 12-year-old daughter, Gweet, (what a cute nickname for Margaret!), was so precocious. I love that she, upon meeting Captain Ernest Saunders, immediately proposed marriage to him. Though I wouldn’t have been quite so bold as to propose when I was that age, I could most certainly see myself being smitten by a handsome sea captain and wishing for that proposal!
It was interesting to delve a little into the world of horseracing and the nefarious activities that can take place in that world of high stakes. The mystery surrounding the death of the jockey was well developed. It was not until the end of the story when the Captain solved the mystery that I knew the resolution, though I do want to take credit for having half of it figured out before then. The red herrings along the way served their purpose well.
Things seemed a little choppy at the beginning, but the story was interesting and sweet, and if it remained that way at the end, I no longer noticed.

I loved reading Donna Hatch's story - The Stranger She Married. I've always been a sucker for Cinderella type stories, and Ms. Hatch does not disappoint! Great writing. Exciting story. I recommend this story to readers who love romance!
G.G. Vandagriff is an excellent writer, and her Regency Romance "The Duke's Undoing" is on my list of favorites. I love to laugh at the characters, and I love a good intrigue, and this book had everything I enjoy about reading historical romance. Another great book I highly recommend!

Great collection of Regency romance books
Purchased this great collection of three romance books for 99 cents and was tremendously pleased with each story. Rather than go into a description of each individual book, I will just say that I found each story thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining. These are clean romances and though I prefer my stories with a bit more spice, I truly didn't miss it in these books. Would recommend this set to anyone who loves regency period romance.

Mediocre 2nd romance, but otherwise very good
October 4, 2017
All three of the stories were very good. Each had a different difficulty to be overcome and getting there was well done.
