Review: What happened between book 1 and book 2
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 05 3, 2012
When I read a short story, I expect a short STORY complete with plot, purpose, characters, and development. Although well written, this "story" is just a written account of what happened between booksConfessions of an Improper Bride (A Donovan Novel)andSecrets of An Accidental Duchess (A Donovan Novel)without any real plot or purpose except to show us what happened off page. We already are told the important details of this "story" in book 2, so we don't really learn anything new.This type of off-scene story is best done as a freebie posted on the author's website for rabid fans, as it isn't a fleshed out story but rather a "bridge" between books. This story is the scene where the Marquis of Fenwicke tries to seduce Olivia, which is the catalyst for events in book 2. We also see Serena's (book 1) first return to the place where she was discovered in a compromising position.If you haven't read either of these books, this story will hold no interest for you.Donovan Sisters SeriesConfessions of an Improper Bride (A Donovan Novel)ONCE UPON A WICKED NIGHT -- Donovan Sisters 1.5Secrets of An Accidental Duchess (A Donovan Novel)Pleasures of a Tempted Lady (A Donovan Novel)
