Dorothea Donley's "Taste of London" takes the reformed rake motif and gives it a bit of a twist. Fun read!
Jean Ewing's "The Notorious Lord" is a bit more contrived that I like, but it satisfying nonetheless.
Paula Girard's "A Matter of Honor" reminded me some of Sara Blayne's "Noble" series, except the novella length didn't provide for full character development.
Jenna Jones' "Duke of Diamonds" bring a search for a fire diamond teaches the duke he doesn't control a woman worth having. I did find it distracting to have point of view switched from paragraph to paragraph.
Meg-Lynn Roberts' "For All Eternity" tells the tale of a love that spans difficulties and time.
Marcy Stewart's "Lady Constance Wins" not only tells an entertaining love story, but it addresses the issue of slavery in the Regency.
