Review # 1 was written on 2011-03-16 00:00:00 Patrick Corcoran Kasey Michaels has done it again and fabulously so with the most endearing characters you could hope to find peopling Becket House on Romney Marsh! The dialogs are brilliant, the characters are mesmerizing, the sensuality inspiring, and the chuckles are endless! I predict the unconventional Beckets of Romney Marsh are going to wheedle their way into the readers' hearts as they have certainly done in mine. Chance Becket and Julia Carruthers are fabulous protagonists that were simply made for one another. Julia having come to London to find work as a nanny for Chance's motherless daughter Alice, was hired and found herself heading back to Chances' family home in Romney Marsh the very next day. Though somewhat intimidated by his unconventional family, Julia didn't seem intimidated by Chance. Julia's outspokenness and contrary ways seemed to amuse and totally confound Chase who had never met anyone quite like her. The fact that Julia's sincere devotion to his beloved daughter Alice was definitely a point in her favor, and the fact that she was attractive certainly helped him to overlook her cheeky barbs. When it appeared that Julia stumbled upon some Becket family skeletons, she wondered if Chances' passionate advances were based on attraction, or simply to keep her quiet and protect his family and the secrets of a past he so desperately wanted to forget. Along with her clever writing, Kasey Michaels draws the reader in with memorable characters, witty and intelligent banters, and a delightfully woven plot. The love scenes are sensual and overflow with tantalizing emotion. I look forward to reading others in this series.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-03-20 00:00:00 Stephen Hall Maybe not a keeper but I really enjoyed this start to the series. The heroine never played the damsel in distress and I love how she kept the hero on his toes... she said things that constantly had him realizing that all his tactics were NOT working. It was great. I liked the back story and also how every one of the characters was built up. I am looking forward to finding the rest of this series!
