Description

"Three sexy rakes wreak havoc in the romantic lives of three Regency ladies" in these "wickedly entertaining" tales by a #1 New York Times–bestselling author (Booklist).

Oh, those naughty rakes. With their wicked winks, sensual smiles, and bad boy habits, you just can't take them out in polite society. But who wants to go out when you can stay in. . . ?

Stolen Pleasures
Sebastian Blake, Earl of Merrick, long ago fled the responsibilities of his title to become the infamous pirate Captain show more Phoenix. But the booty he's just captured on a merchant ship is a fierce-tempered minx who claims to be a bride . . . his bride, married to him by proxy on behest of their fathers. He could shame his hated family and return his beautiful wife untouched, but no treasure has ever proved more tempting to Sebastian, and making their marriage a true one—in every sense—is his one urgent desire . . .

Lucien's Gamble
Lucien Remington's reputation as a debauched libertine who plays by no one's rules—in business or the bedroom—is well deserved. He gets what he wants, social repudiation be damned. But society can keep from him the one thing he truly desires, the untouchable Lady Julienne La Coeur. Until she sneaks into his club dressed as a man, searching for her irresponsible brother. Suddenly she's in Lucien's grasp, his to take, and his mind is filled with the most wickedly sinful thoughts. A gentleman would walk away from the temptation she presents. But then, Lucien has never claimed to be a gentleman . . .

Her Mad Grace
Hugh La Coeur never wanted to be the Earl of Montrose. Wine, women, and a hefty wager are preferable to responsibility of any kind. It's certainly preferable to spending the night in an eerie, neglected mansion owned by a legendary madwoman. The duchess's companion, the fiercely independent Charlotte, is another matter altogether. Hugh would be happy to spend as many nights in her bed as possible. He knows she's hiding terrible secrets, but for once in his life, Hugh has the desire to take on someone else's burden as his own, no matter what the danger . . .

They're mad, bad, and totally irresistible . . .

"Day provides plenty of richly detailed love scenes . . . and her wickedly entertaining combination of steamy sex and bold language is certain to be appreciated by readers who like hot historicals by Virginia Henley and Susan Johnson." —Booklist

Stolen Pleasures - 4
Things move rapidly once pirate discovers he's kidnapped his own wife. Sometimes the story feels like there are chunks missing. Not sure if it was meant that way or chunks were editted out.

Her Mad Grace - 4
Hugh struggling to prove he's a changed man, finds himself stranded in a house of misfits. He starts being somewhat superficial and then you see him learning to see beyond a persons exterior. I would have liked the story fleshed out more.

Her Lucien's Gamble - 5
Bastard son of a duke and an earl's daughter. While highly unbelievable, it was a fun read
I was given an advance copy to give my honest opinion of this rejacketed title from Sylvia Day. At the beginning it was easy to see that this was one of Ms. Day's earlier writings, but it wasn't long before I was hooked in. The book contains three novella's whose characters are entwined in each others lives. I loved each story on their own, but I really loved how they were linked and played a role in each others storyline. The diligence to the language, style, and social mores' of the period in which the stories are set in, is as always a credit to Ms. Day. I honestly cannot say which story I enjoyed more as they were all equally enticing.
A collection of stories revamped with a new title and cover. These were my first introduction to Sylvia Day, so I have a special fondness for them for that reason. Done earlier in her career, these stories aren't as polished as her work now but they have Day's signature style and sensuality. Lucien from "Lucien's Gamble" is a character who makes an appearance in several of her full length books. As I'm partial to reformed pirates, my favorite in this anthology remains "Stolen Pleasures".
Última novelinhas, Hugh e Charlote
As 3 histórias estão interligadas Sebastian livro 1 e amigo de Lucien livro 2 que se casa com Juliene que e irmã de Hugh livro 3.
Exatamente a mesma história em 3 enredos diferentes
Não e marcante o suficiente p merecer uma releitura
Ainda preferiria uma história completa e bem elaborada com Lucien, amei q o ancinho bastardo tem uma família maravilhosa e foge completamente do padrão do macho alfa com pais odiosos.
