Contest Winners: Never Trust a Contest Duckie!
August 28, 2008
Okay, so the awarding of these books is waaaay overdue. Mea Culpa, I plead too much sun. As you may remember, about a month ago we offered up 10 copies of each book in Liz Carlyle's latest trilogy: Never Lie to a Lady, Never Deceive a Duke and Never Romance a Rake. Then it somehow got lost in the shuffle. Well, I finally got my act together, so click on the cut to see who won.
REVIEW: Never Deceive a Duke by Liz Carlyle
August 23, 2008
Liviania's review of Never Deceive a Duke (Neville Family Trilogy, Book Two) by Liz Carlyle
Historical romance released by Pocket Star 24 Jul 07
In Never Lie to a Lady, Gareth acted the runner-up. He loved the heroine and offered her a good marriage, but Xanthia just didn't feel for him like she did Lord Nash.

The Comte de Valigny likes to play deeply and dangerously, but Rothewell’s recklessness is undeterred. Until one night when de Valigny wagers something just a little more valuable than gold.
Mademoiselle Marchand is a desperate woman in a strange land, and her pleading eyes seem to swallow Lord Rothewell body and soul—assuming he still has one. Now the baron must play his hand with the utmost care, for at last something meaningful is at stake . . .
In honor of (to quote Sybil) "the historical of the summer", TGTBTU presents...
