I enjoyed this even more than Silk Is for Seduction - Longmore is such a sweetie!
And Kate Reading's performance was as wonderful as always.

This was just an okay read. The previous book in the series was much better. I think the primary problem was that the characters weren't that interesting. We hear that Longmore is a lunkhead (which he is), and that Sophia is a crafty mastermind...but that's about it. And you can only read about a guy being repeatedly called various iterations of dumb before boredom sets in. He isn't even endearingly dumb, either. Just a dolt. That's not appealing. There's no real growth on the part of either cha

This second book in the Dressmakers series was delightful. I liked it better than the first one. Loretta Chase's terrific humor shows here. Sophy and Longmore are an interesting combination, with contrasts that move the story along. Great dialogue and verbal repartee. Nothing earth-shaking about the plot, but the enjoyable interactions made the book work.

Ms Chase is back with her most perfect book yet! I adored Sophy and Longmore's bickering while attracted, then bickering while falling for each other, then bickering while even making love. Their adventure while searching for his sister and then saving his sister was fun too. Sophy was such a great character. Perfect scenes and dialogue of their rapid & witty back and forth! My new favorite of one of my favorite authors. But what happens to Fenwick?

The writing started off less elegant than I recall from the previous book. However, it more than made up for it later on. I couldn't believe how well written it was, how beautifully descriptive. I am well acquainted with Ms. Chase's writing, and while I acknowledge it as top notch, I must say she simply blew my mind this time around.
