To the Duke, With Love: The Rakes of St. James Kindle Edition

by Amelia Grey (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars (344)

The next lush, romantic novel in the Regency romance series, The Rakes of St. James, from New York Times bestselling author Amelia Grey!

There may be times when a gentleman is desperate to gain a lady's attention, but a gentleman would never resort to desperate measures to obtain it.
—A Proper Gentleman's Guide to Wooing the Perfect Lady
Sloane Knox, the Duke of Hawksthorn is guardian for his sweet, younger sister. Due to his misguided past as one of the infamous Rakes of St James, Hawk is hoping to avoid the Season by securing a match for her before it begins. He has the perfect gentleman in mind, but for one infuriating—and unexpectedly intoxicating—obstacle: the intended groom's own sister, Miss Loretta Quick.
Having narrowly avoided her own arranged marriage to an unacceptable nobleman, Loretta is determined that her dear brother—a gentle, good-natured soul—should marry for love. Matching wits with Hawk may be her greatest challenge yet. . .until she realizes it may also be her greatest pleasure. For the young duke's irresistible charm has not only begun to crumble her stubborn resolve, it has claimed her heart in true love as well in To the Duke, With Love.
"A master storyteller."—Affaire de Coeur

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Sparks arc between perfectly matched protagonists as they fight their feelings and each other in a sexy, spirited story that will not disappoint." ― Library Journal

"The latest sterling addition to Grey's the Rakes of St. James series is another irresistible combination of skillfully nuanced characters, graceful writing imbued with a deliciously dry sense of wit, and lushly sensual romance." ―Booklist

“With its engaging characters, sweet sensuality and Dickensian twist, readers will find themselves cheering on the characters while savoring a double romance and a glimpse into the often overlooked underbelly of English society. Highly enjoyable.” -- RT Book Reviews

“Lively dialogue and stubborn protagonists make this story work.” -- Publishers Weekly

"A delightful tale...The chemistry between these two almost short circuited my ereader. This was such a character driven story and these two did not let me down. They could have easily stepped into any time period or location and have been just as stunning." -- Night Owl Reviews

"The twists and turns toward love are not easy, Grey makes the journey a worthwhile one. Hawk and Loretta are feisty and have a passion that explodes when the two join forces. They became one of my favorite historical romance couples as the novel ended in an unexpected perfection." -- Lindsey Gray

"To the Duke, With Love reminded me why I love historical/regency romance." -- A Quaintrelle in the City

    First let me say that Ms. Grey is one of my go to authors when looking for something new to read. Her writing for me will keep me entertained for hours and have a hard time putting her books down.. I absolutely enjoyed this book I really liked that this book hit on the hard times that children went through during this time period. Loretta was a strong woman who can stand up to arrogant Dukes, but at the same time is willing to help someone in need.

    3.0 out of 5 stars insta-lust historical romance falls very flat
    Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2018
    Format: Kindle
    This is the second book in the Rakes of St. James series. I read the first book and enjoyed it quite a bit, so I was expecting so much from this next book. It fell flat for me. The obvious insta-lust was so strong, it didn't even read right in this historical romance setting. I did not get the feeling that the primary couple actually fell in love with one another. "I want you" is not the same as "I love you." Additionally, there was a great imbalance of financials, which rubs me the wrong way with that type of power play. 

    Sloane Knox, Duke of Hawksthorn, is one of the three Rakes of St. James who played a prank on a dozen debutantes a decade ago. Following last year's season and a possible threat to the younger sister of one of the other Rakes of St. James, Sloane wants to bar any such threat happening to his younger sister, Adele, as she makes her debut. Arranging a secret engagement before the start of the season will ensure that Adele comes out successful with a suitor and free of any retribution. In efforts to arrange what Hawk believes is the perfect match, he travels to Mammoth House, set far in the countryside, remote and isolated. Eager to make arrangements with Paxton Quick, a handsome and kind man, Hawk is harshly surprised to find not Paxton, but his sister Loretta at Mammoth House. A confusing confrontation ensues, with lines drawn in the sand and Loretta firmly making her stance that she will do everything in her power to keep her brother from this marriage. 

    Despite being a drastic act, Loretta was once set up in an arranged marriage herself. It was a business transaction more than a love match. In fact, she didn't feel anything for the man...and left him at the altar. Following her uncle's severe embarrassment and ensuing rage, Loretta has been banished to live at the remote Mammoth House, not even allowed to visit the village. She is required to remain at Mammoth House and not allowed to leave and sees her uncle but once a year at Christmastime. Having suffered the repercussions, Loretta only wants her brother to marry for love. 

    Going against all etiquette, Hawk dines alone with Loretta that night as a massive storm blows in. Midway through, a young urchin is found at the backdoor. Hawk follows him into the storm and brings him back, while Loretta and the other staff nurse him back from the brink of death. Once he revives a little, he is feisty and foul-mouthed. 

    Hawk is bent on ensuring the match between Adele and Paxton, inviting them to London for a meeting. Going to the lengths to visit the Earl of Switchingham and fatten him up to the idea, Hawk also persuades him to allow Loretta to make the journey. Considering the earl will not be out one penny for any of the travel and it will only be acceptable for both siblings to make the journey, the earl agrees. Getting the responsibility of his nephew off his shoulders will be a welcome change. 

    Embarking to London, Loretta makes the last-minute decision to bring Farley with them. He needs to be seen by a doctor, but Hawk is cold to the idea and cold to Farley. He sees him as a street rat who will pilfer anything. The two males almost have a burning hatred in their eyes for one another. The boy is quick witted for sure and brings comedic relief and drama to the unfolding story.

    The insta-lust is palpable even from the immediate start of the book, and continues on throughout the book. There are a few close calls where they are almost caught, and Hawk makes some pre-arranged tasks for others so that he and Loretta can be alone. Ironically, Adele and Paxton hit it off extremely well and their match seems inevitable. 

    There were a couple of inaccuracies (dollars in England?) that showed the lesser planning for this second installment. I was looking forward to this second book in the Rakes of St. James series and the insta-love and some of the awkward wording dropped the book significantly from the momentum established with the first book. I'm not sure what to expect with the next in the series.

    Just read Book 2 of the trilogy 'The Rakes of St. James'. Book 1 was really really good, but this one was really special and sad at times especially as there was a orphaned boy in the mix. Once I started this book I left everything to finish it and well worth it. Another fantastic story from the pen of Amelia Grey. Pre-ordered Book 3 but as it does not arrive until June, 2018 will read books 1 and 2 once book 3 arrives to get back into the swing of the stories. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED READING
