Download Now The Wedding Runaway (The Dueling Pistols) Illustrated By Katy Madison Accessible As EReader Version

reread this and upped it to a three, I am not sure if it is a three, but I have read so many ones and minus ones lately, this one read better the second time around.
It started out great. Then as it went on, not so much, Good story. A bit too much in the way of repetitious angst, But overall, I liked it, I was in the mood to read about a heroine masquerading as a boy so this one I got interested in after reading the synopsis.
It started good but then it became predictable starting with the reveal of her sex, And then things became dizzying and the writer added unnecessary secondary story plots, Argh! One moment you're reading about the main couple, next paragraph it's about the brother and this Helena,
Plus there are a couple of women in the story that are associated with the hero who btw are disgustingly connected to him one way or another.
Boston heiress Lydia Hamilton overhears her fiancés scheme to wrest control of the family business by wedding her, Refusing to be any mans pawn, she runs away to England, A lone woman would stand out, but masquerading as a young man named Leonard, she can have the adventure of her life and support herself with gambling.


Victor Bartlett, the Earl of Wedmont, has sworn off marriage, but he didnt think hes sworn off women, When he rescues a brash American gambler, who has won too much and too often, Victor finds his feelings for the youth unsettling, To scare the runaway back to America, he challenges Leonard to a duel with notoriously inaccurate and cursed pistols,

But the pistols have away of changing everything, and Leonard is wounded, Victor didnt mean to shoot the boy at all, but when he discovers Leonard is a girl what can he do, but take her home to heal But who will heal whom.
It was really just okay, though the secondary romance was a little better to me than the primary, I thought Lady Helena was a bit more welldefined, though her past with Trevor wasn't very fleshed out, The lead, Lydia, never actually tells Victor why she didn't want to marry Oscar the comment about her being mannishit's a point of inferiority for her throughout the book so to never address it with the hero seemed unfinished.
Madison's best work is still Tainted by Temptation, Nookbook "Why am I attracted to a boy!"

"I really am depraved and evil!"

"Oh, she's not a boy at all! I guess it's OK to be attracted now.
"

"But I'm still depraved and evil!"

"I destroy everything I touch!"

"I want her!"

"I can't have her!"

"I want you, Lydia!" LickFondleGyrate

"NO! I can't have you!"

"Seriously, stay away from me!"

"I can't let her go!"

"Sending her away from my evilness is for the best!"

"Don't leave me, Julia!"

"No! Go, my sweet, you will be better off!"

"I love you! I realized too late!"

"NOOOO!!!.

. . Regency The book is ok and worth it for only,. It hadbut I really think that's pushing it

a bit when compared to authors such as Julia Quinn, Cheryl Holt, Shana Gallen and Elizabeth Holt.
I like to give new authors a try when waiting on new releases, I liked the first part but as it went on, I've lost a bit of interest at pageon my Nook, I hope to return to it and finish it later, This book was horrible. If you are looking for an accurate historical romance put this down and find something else,
Runaway

I enjoyed this book too, This a great series with funny and loving characters, I loved reading Victor' s story ,who was very outspoken, kind and compassionate, .stars

I do enjoy but some I didn't like, Good writing and easy to understand, I haven't read any series, This is the only one I wanted to read, I was interested in brass women dressed as a man, act as a man and take the ton.
But in this one, it was okay, Just didn't like when she's blurry teary eyes,

I don't like it when Vincent went looking to Amelia for "to slake his thirst" while He's thinking of Lydia, Gross! I feel sorry for Amelia, Shes been throwing herself at him,

I don't like when other couples insert in with main couples story, I'm glad good guy, Trevor finally have the love of his life Helena wedded,

He met her gaze with his own intensity, then he dropped to one knee, gathered her hands in his and said, "Lydia, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife, of sharing this home with me I have done much to hurt you and I fear I may yet cause you more pain, but I love you and I cannot live without you.
I was a fool to ever believe I could, "

Yea You, Vincent is a fool! Wanting her, kissing her, longing her, hurting her, runied her, hurt her again then in the end damn to all, and now you're in love with her Finally made up your mind.
Sheesh.

Why do Lydia stayed around til he man up

I liked Lydia boldness and her adventure as inpendent but I didn't like the way she coward when scare or be distress, making her feminine when she's been acting as a man.
. . Kinda throw me off a bit,

I'm gonna stick to Bridgeton Interestingly unique storyline with characters that held my attention, Good conclusion to the trilogy, The premise of this book was catchy she masquerades as a boy to earn a living gambling in London after running away from her wedding in Boston.
He becomes sort of a mentor, they get along well, but if only he could stop having these unnatural feelings towards a boy! Maybe he is completely evil and depraved!

This review is slightly spoilerish, but only if you can't figure out exactly how the book will end.


At last he finds out she's a woman! Hurray, he wasn't attracted to a boy! But he still beats himself up for being some form of evil and undeserving of happiness.
And then it gets worse, Not that anything happens, but because nothing happens, He wants her, she wants him, she's willing and able, he keeps making out with her and then running away, So much selfflagellation! Maybe the first two times were okay, maybe even three, But I can't even count how many times he tried to push her away, then showed up again to show her how much he wants her, then tells her he's no good for her and runs away again, but not before "laving her nipples.
" I know it's a standard plot device, but it went on so many times that he really just needed a kick in the head.


Also, it took up a lot of the book, leaving very little time at the end for him to have a great revelation.
His revelation wasn't wellwritten, either, I couldn't pinpoint a certain instance when he changed his mind, we just catch up to him later and he's realized that of course he's been an idiot.
Well. We already knew that.

Another minor complaint is the style the author would switch from one story to another, She would leave a cliffhanger situation, but then when she returned to those characters, they were already past it, They might think about what happened in flashback, but I didn't like being taken out of the action and never returned,

Finally, this book is the last of a series, I thought it was the first book, so I was confused and annoyed when so much attention was paid to tertiary characters and mystical cursed pistols.
Then I realized that I should have read all the other books, Oops, totally my bad. So, this book doesn't stand alone very well, I'm not going back to the other books because from what I could gather each couple had similar misunderstandings and cat and mouse games that went on for an entire book.
