This is funny.  It's romantic.  It's well written.  And it didn't cost much and is far better than most recent HRs by known authors that I have read.The title of the book says it all.  10 years ago heroine Prudence Haversham, at the tender age of 16, was disgraced and sent away from home because of an incident involving the 9th Duke of Ainsworth.  She is now a successful apothecary in Bath, but every once in a while she dreams of avenging herself and finally does.The duke is abducted, drugged and tattooed (in a very interesting part of the body).  Unfortunately, Prudence comes to realize that she has avenged herself on the 10th Duke of Ainsworth, who has done nothing to her.  So now the 10th duke is out to find out who has done this to him and avenge himself.  Well, all I can say is read this book if you like HRs.  The dialogue is intelligent and fun, the plot is unique, the characters are splendid.I didn't give the book 5 stars because there's a section about 60% in where it bogged down and annoyed me a little, with a Failure to Communicate on the part of the duke and a Big Misunderstanding because of this on the part of Prudence.  But after that section all becomes truly fun again and just as good as the beginning.  Oh, and the epilogue is great!  Wait until you read it!One little peeve the teacher in me has to note:  The author does not know the difference between the two words "discrete" and "discreet" and consistently uses the wrong one.  Another spelling error which just amused me rather than peeved was her expressing that a certain character received his "just desserts".  (That would be "deserts" unless he's getting chocolate cake or cherry pie, for some reason.)Nitpicking aside, I thoroughly enjoyed this and am looking forward to the next book in the series.NOTE (added on 8/18):  Since the time that early reviewers such as I wrote reviews, the author has taken the trouble to address some issues readers had with this book.  The revised and corrected version is the one now available on Amazon.  I haven't yet read it but I would imagine it's even better than the early version I enjoyed.
