A Peculiar Enchantment by Kathleen Buckley

 


Love is the most peculiar enchantment.  

 About The Book: What can you look forward to when your only relatives call you ugly, unbalanced and a scandal? What would you do if your only friend was threatened? Dependent on her half-brother, the Earl of Lamburne, Adelaide Setbury knows—and wants to escape.

Gervase Ducane needs to marry well—but not to Lamburne’s spiteful chit of a daughter. As the younger brother to a marquess, he has noble connections to offer an heiress, but why is he only now meeting the earl’s delightful half-sister?

Ordered to stay away from the house party, Adelaide rebels. She will make her unwelcome and embarrassing presence known if only to avenge herself and her pet. There, she and Ducane meet and—when you least expect it—magic happens.  

 Our Review: Author Buckley puts a fresh face on the usual staid rules- driven Regency romance by introducing two unique and out of the ordinary characters Gervase Ducane and Adelaide Setbury. If barriers are suddenly erected to their careful plans, they each employ unique and inventive ways to overcome them. Subterfuge abounds in this story—as do multiple layers to their personalities as these two tackle each new threat to their happy ever after ending. Well done!    

On a scale of 1-5, A Peculiar Enchantment deserves a 5.
