Product Description

From the Author

When I first started writing DUEL OF HEARTS, I wanted to play with a concept that had intrigued me for a while: what happens when two "alpha" personality types are irresistibly attracted to each other? The adage has always been that opposites attract ... but that’s not always true. Sometimes like is drawn to like. It was easy for me to picture two gentle and retiring souls living happily together. But two fiery, dominant personalities? Falling in love requires surrender. Falling in love means that someone else’s wishes become more important to you than your own. How could two people who have never compromised on anything, commit to that? It was like the old joke that asks how porcupines make love. The answer? "Very carefully."

The resulting book was wonderful fun to write. Creating Drake and Delilah, and then throwing them together, was like building my very own rollercoaster. These two people are (literally) made for each other ... much to their dismay. They fight their mutual attraction tooth and nail, with no success whatsoever. I do hope readers laugh at them as heartily as their author did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightfully engaging. 4 Mar 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Lilah Chadwick is in for a rude awakening when she receives notice that her beloved father is about to marry a much younger woman. She sets off immediately for London to put a stop to the nonsense, her faithful servant in tow. While attempting to hire the only carriage at a small inn, she runs afoul of the man who has already commandered it; Adam Harleston, Earl of Drakely, or Drake to his friends. They discover that they are on the same mission, since it is his cousin, who has always planned to wed, that Lilah's father is about to marry. Though disliking the necessity, they travel together, trading barbs the whole way. Does their repartee mask deeper feelings?

Once in London, they find that Adam's cousin is willing to break her engagement and marry him, but is that what the oil and water couple truly wants?

***** Delightfully engaging, this novel will provoke laugh out loud moments as this pair comes to the realization that what they thought they wanted might be all together different from what they really want. In dark times, this frothy romance will entertain fans of Regency and historical romances alike. *****

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully witty and full of passion! 3 Feb 2013
By Sophie
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
What a delightful story with wonderful characters! I loved it!

It was lovely to see two characters of a similar, fiery nature come together. Their frequent arguments were highly amusing and the whole story of how their passionate relationship developed was great, if a little frustrating at times when they just wouldn't see what was right before their eyes; that they were perfect for each other - it's not only opposites that attract! There were some sweet secondary characters and putting it all together it was delightful, very romantic, wonderfully witty and highly engaging!

I cannot wait to read more of her work.
