Publisher Description
Not all dukes are created equal. Most are upstanding members of Society. And then there’s the trio known as The Dis-Graces.
Hugh Philemon Ancaster, seventh Duke of Ripley, will never win prizes for virtue. But even he draws the line at running off with his best friend’s bride. All he’s trying to do is recapture the slightly inebriated Lady Olympia Hightower and return her to her intended bridegroom.
For reasons that elude her, bookish, bespectacled Olympia is supposed to marry a gorgeous rake of a duke. The ton is flabbergasted. Her family’s ecstatic. And Olympia? She’s climbing out of a window, bent on a getaway. But tall, dark, and exasperating Ripley is hot on her trail, determined to bring her back to his friend. For once, the world-famous hellion is trying to do the honorable thing.
So why does Olympia have to make it so deliciously difficult for him . . . ?
Customer Reviews
A Duke in shining armor
Loved the story very witty, funny and romantic loved all the characters it made me want to know more about the others stories
very boring. got to chapter 11 and gave up
got to chapter 11 and gave up. events were unfolding slowly. conversations were dry and bland, the ones that were there at least, but conversations were kind of rare. it was mostly just descriptions of places, and thoughts (uninteresting thoughts)
That was not Loretta Chase I expected.....
I couldn’t even finish the book....story seemed waaaay outlandish and contrived and silly to the point of unbelievable. I was super surprised (in an unpleasant way) how different it was from the writing that i enjoyed in Lord of Scoundrels, Last Hellion, Captives of the Night, etc. Def. disappointed me. Too bad.
