The Rogue (Liar's Club, Book 5) 17 reviews
Celeste Bradley
St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2005
B+/A- what pulls this up to an A- is the clever plot and action scenes, Ethan's character development, and continuing the saga
In this romance, the hero really is the main character and focus of the story. And we watch him try to court the heroine. (I'd say the book is 80% his and 20% the heroine's.) He likes to gamble esp. w/ cards - and that's how he's earned his living - he cheats too - he'll take money from the rich and spoiled and ungrateful without feeling guilty at all. And he's damn good at it. Ethan truly is a ...

The Impostor (The Liars Club, Book 2) 23 reviews
Celeste Bradley
St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2003
Couldn't put down
I loved this book. Great lite reading and takes your mind to other places and times. I have read both the Pretender and now the Impostor and if I had lived in England during those times I would have been terrified of Lord Liverpool's political control in England. To think that if he thought you were dangerous, you just disappeared is extrememly scary and mind boggling.

St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2004
Great
There wasn't a dull moment anywhere in this book! I loved the characters, especially young Robbie. James was a wonderful man who didn't deserve all the heartache he went through, but one thing Ms Bradley needs to work on - I've read two of her books now, and James and Dane from "Surrender to a Wicked Spy" weren't exactly top notch spies, were they? The heroines were right under their noses and ...

enjoyable
I was not disappointed with this second in a series. Not sure why some of the reviews are so brutal, bad day perhaps? I found it to be a light, fast read.

Enjoy Bradley
Loved her sense of humor and fast action. Didn't like references to Liar's members and their adventures as I have not read the books. Did enjoy the strong characters and sensual tension.

Totally charming and extremely enjoyable!
Setting - England, 1831--- Izzy Temple is a rather non-descript and plain young woman who has convinced herself that she would never marry. After all she knew was very plain, but she was intelligent and she had a dream. Of course, her dream was not like the one she was experiencing at the moment with someone nibbling at her neck, caressing her body, and causing all kinds of delightful feelings in ...

To Wed a Scandalous Spy (Royal Four, Book 1)20 reviews
Celeste Bradley
St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2005
Bradley fans will love this one! Read the Liar's Club first though....
(NOTE: I would recommend reading Celeste Bradley's Liar's Club books before this one b/c some of the supporting characters play an important role in this one, and the hero in this one plays important supporting roles in those as well.)
Ok, so Celeste Bradley novels aren't for everyone (I realized this when I notice only one or 2 of her books are stocked in B&N or not at all.) but I would ...
