Desires of Passionate Ladies: A Historical Regency Romance Collection by Emily Honeyfield

Overall Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I enjoyed 2 out of three of the books Here are my thoughts on each one.

What a Wicked Duke Demands ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is a fascinating story about disgrace and redemption. A stolen kiss from saving a woman leaves Gerard find this woman desirable, something he hasn't felt in a long time. Beth will not let passion destroy her like it has her sister. This story has a very twisted ending and leaves you wondering about the whole situation with the sister in the first place.

A Scandalous Match ⭐⭐

This story is hurtful and resentful and wouldn't have happened in that day and age. Neither would have been allowed to remarry. Reginald doesn't want his wife's baby and hides it among the village folk with everyone believing she died in childbirth. Things come to ahead years later as Susanna and Reginald find each other. This story may have been good if it did not have all the inaccuracies of Regency law included. It felt like the author wanted to write a truly scathing story about divorce, but failed miserably.

A Bachelor She Loves to Hate ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This story is mysterious but humorous. Oliver is a strange man who works secretly for the King. Oliver comes to Tabitha's rescue with a well paid housekeeper's position. His excuse is that her mother was kind to him. Although Tabitha can't stand him, she takes the job. As Tabitha gets to know Oliver, she falls in love with him. Life can take unexpected turns and this is a nice take on Beauty and the Beast.
