Review: Quick, fun, & a bit heated.

This was an enjoyable quick read with a fairly likeable heroine & magnetic hero. Really a 3.5 star story for me. The situation that throws our Elizabeth into the arms of the Duke is believable enough (for this type of story) & I happen to enjoy the political twist to it.  Some of the secondary characters are also fairly well rounded (Angelique, the Duke's cousin, the nurse).  Obviously, there is a misunderstanding on both sides of the relationship & much of the conflict could have been avoided by a simple conversation, but this is a romance so that would just be silly ;)  They way it ends lends itself to the possibility of another story in this world with some of the secondary characters taking center stage.The sex scenes are decent but not full blown erotica.  Just enough to warm the blood up a bit.All in all a nice quick read that left me interested in seeing what the author has done in her more explicit "Simply" series.
