Praise for Much Ado About You:
Great fun and love the modern take on a classic Regency romance, with all its nods and winks to Austena great achievement that matches fast-paced romance with well-crafted social observationbravo for Eloisa!FIONA WALKER
Great fun! I couldn't put it down. Move over Georgette Heyer! DAISY WAUGH
Hurrah! Romance is back in fashion. No grisly body count, no lurking serial killer. The only four-letter word is love. Choc-full of romantic heroes that would give Darcy a run for his money. Sheer joy from beginning to end. Carole Matthews
In the first in a new series featuring the wonderfully amusing Essex sisters, New York Times best-selling James' gift for superb characterization and elegantly sensual, delightfully witty prose creates a thoroughly romantic treat. Booklist
