Proof of Seduction

In Courtney Milan's Proof of Seduction, the first installment in the Carhart historical romance series, this captivating love story would scintillate you and leave you spellbound for more. For years, Jenny Keeble had lived a life of lies and acted as a gypsy named Madame Esmeralda to make money. But when Gareth Carhart's cousin Ned had visited her for years for sagely advice, he had met his match and called her bluff. They didn't start off on the right feet when they first met and hated each other at sight. But when she had set him off in a challenge to find his Mrs. Right at the ball, both Ned and Gareth followed it through to earn points by carving an elephant, doing an ode for his cousin, and then smiling. For Gareth, he lived a very dull life as the marquess of Blakely and had a very choice words for Jenny. When a task failed when Gareth sought out Jenny, it left Ned in a delicate situation with Lady Kathleen Ware. The feelings for Gareth and Jenny were red-hot as he brought material things for Jenny and revealed herself to him. She told him her real name and took off her gypsy gloves, when she later discovered that someone at the bank ripped her off of money. Later on, when Jenny's down on her luck and savings, it would be up to Gareth and Ned to stop her and for Gareth to tell him how he felt about her by saving the magic words she longed to hear.

This was a fantastic and sexy historical romance. This hit all the right notes and then some to have her temperatures rising before it can simmer to a slow burn. I did care for Jenny and how she would deal with unexpected life changes. She had a rough life and deserved a break for a change. I'm so glad that both Ned and Gareth had came to their senses and also to her rescue in the end. I think she had found her match in Gareth for her happily ever after. I did love the scenic settings around England to make it an idyllic location for the series. This would make you fall in love with this story with non-stop action, plenty of suspense, lots of romantic drama, and hints of intrigue to keep us guessing and wanting more.

The Duchess War

In the Duchess War, the first book in the Brothers Sinister series, Courtney Milan introduced us to a love affair of no other between two people who were meant to be. Wilhemina Pursling was no like other woman. She carried a deep secret and her real name close to her heart. She lived a hard life of scandal and shame, and excelled in her true love for chess. Robert Blaisdell, the Duke of Clermont, had his own secret to keep. They've made a betting war like no other. He would seduce her and get someone to marry her, or she would unmask the secret, before he could claim her of his own. With such hardships from his own mother and someone who wanted to ruined her, she placed her life in his hands with a proposal of his own.  Between the two of them, the chemistry was explosive, when they exposed each other's secrets and followed their hearts to love.

I loved this historical romance and would read others in the series in the near future. For both Minnie and Robert, they both have kept secrets from their past. You can't deny the sparks between them. The backstory of her playing chess intrigued me a bit further to keep on reading.  This was more than a war of words, but more of uncontrollable passion. I didn't care for much for Robert's mother and the crowding people who wanted to do her harm with her fears. I despised Walter and George who wanted to expose her to the public. Hooked on the first page, I couldn't stop reading this on my Kindle. You'll be intrigued in this love match, too.
