Review: A Lady Compromised
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 04 28, 2014
I found this novel to be rather unoriginal.  Delia's guardian is set on marrying her in order to get his hands on her fortune.  The Marquess, Delia's love interest, is definitely a rake, and frankly I didn't care much for him.  The Marquess doesn't even give Delia a chance to explain herself when she suddenly bursts into his bedchamber.  Instead, he starts to seduce her, and accuses her of being a wanton whore who must normally rendevue in this bedchamber with a footman for a quick romp.  Later on, trying to forget about Delia, the Marquess gets himself a French mistress.  The guy was a total jerk and Delia deserved way better.Again, most of the conflict seemed typical of a regency novel; nothing new or original here. It was a bit slow and I didn't care much for the characters.  Some typos, even some words missing from sentences, which totally change the sentences' meaning. I don't think this novel is worth $4.99.
