The first book in the new series Desperately Seeking Duke from USA Today bestselling and RITA award-winning author Caroline Linden. It's no love match... Bianca Tate is horrified when her sister Cathy is obliged to accept an offer of marriage from Maximilian St. James, notorious rake. Defiantly she helps Cathy elope with her true love, and takes her sister's place at the altar. It's not even the match that was made... Perched on the lowest branch of his family tree, Max has relied on charm and cunning to survive. But an unexpected stroke of luck gives him an outside chance at a dukedom-and which Tate sister he weds hardly seems to matter. But could it be the perfect match? Married or not, Bianca is determined to protect her family's prosperous ceramics business, even when Max shows an affinity for it-not to mention a dangerous ability to intrigue and tempt Bianca herself. And when Max realizes how beautiful and intelligent and desirable Bianca is, he'll have to prove he's no rogue, but the passionately devoted husband she craves...… (more)

2.5 rounded up. I like Linden's writing, but this was a bit of a disappointment to me. I had such a hard time with the heroine. She is both a goose, with a poor understanding and daft actions, and a shrew! Which is a terrible combination. lol. She assumes some things about the hero's character at the start and basically sets out to be unpleasant to him as punishment for showing any interest in her family or their business. And he pretty much sets out to win her over anyway. And they're pushed together, so really they might as well make the best of it! But she continues to be rude and snipe and assume the worst, even as he's being above and beyond patient and kind. She doesn't let facts get in the way of her conclusions. *eye roll* And there's really no point beyond her mule headedness. Definitely no benefit to anyone, herself included! Ugh. Beyond the heroine it's otherwise fine I guess, but she's not a small part of the story, lol. ( )
