I read "What the Duke Wants" and enjoyed it enough to look for other stories written by Kristin Vaden. I chose this book because it looked to include some of the characters from the first book I read. It was only a dollar, but it was a dollar spent on what can only truthfully be called an advertisement for "What the Duke Wants!"The story starts out promising, but stops before there is any conflict or drama. It is just the weakest possible background story of Lady Southridge.  In a few sentences at the end of this snippet of a part of a story, Vaden attempts to give reason for Lady Southridge's motivation for helping out the Duke. The entire story that I paid for is less than half of the pages of the book. The rest of the book is a sample of "What the Duke Wants." So annoying.  The publisher, Amazon, and Vaden should all be embarrassed to be selling this as a legitimate story.The worst part is that Dianna is such a promising character and deserves a better telling of her story. What a waste.
