Product Description
The bold games of passion play out with delicious consequences in this fourth novel of Nicole Jordan’s seductive new series, The Courtship Wars.
Two years ago, lively beauty Eleanor Pierce spied her dashing betrothed, Damon Stafford, Viscount Wrexham, with his former mistress and furiously ended their engagement. Now the charming rake is back in London, meddling in Eleanor’s affairs, bent on thwarting her new suitor. And when Damon’s intoxicating kisses rekindle her deepest longing, Eleanor loses her heart . . . again. But as she has no intention of allowing history to repeat itself, she embarks on a plan of tantalizing seduction, vowing to tame the rogue before she surrenders to his wicked, willful desires.
Determined to stop another man from wooing and winning the woman he loves, Damon knows that claiming Eleanor’s heart is all that matters. But this scandalously bold beauty means to beat him at his own game of romance–a game he is ready and willing to lose.

Nicole Jordan's book felt rather directionless as I was reading it. The main characters were a previously betrothed couple, Eleanor Pierce and Damon Stafford, Viscount Wrexham, whose break-up two years before had been very traumatic for Eleanor. Damon went overseas directly after their split, caused by him being seen with his mistress, but he has now returned, just as Eleanor is trying to decide whether to respond to the advances of an Italian prince.
Damon finds he can't leave Eleanor alone, the prince isn't good enough for her, particularly when it seems that attempts are being made on the prince's life and Eleanor may be put in harm's way. Damon wants to keep close to Eleanor, little realising that she has a plan to seduce him into genuine love.
There was something rather unsatisfying about this book. It was rather unmemorable - having read it three days ago I struggled to remember the major points of the plot. The pacing was a little awkward in that at times it dragged, at other times events happened rather quickly. There were a number of predictable events and the central romance wasn't particularly engaging. However there were some good aspects to the book too, including an attractively independent heroine. The hero's motives were rather suspect and the historical accuracy suffered in order for the author to have scenes that she wanted, but overall it was an inoffensive if unmemorable read.

I love all Nicole Jordan books and I have been following the "Courtship Wars" series since it began.
In the past books I found Eleanor to be a likeable character and I was intrigued by the ongoing joke about how she had broken off two engagments. We learn in this book that her first betrothal to Damon Stafford was the most heart breaking one and the most important. As Damon comes back to London, they meet again and sparks fly.
From the beginning of the book I loved each of these characters and enjoyed reading the witty banter between them and how their converstations would turn to passion as no one does passion as well as Nicole Jordan!
I loved this story and it had me hooked. It was fun to catch up with all the old characers from the pasts books like Marcus, Eleanor's brother.
I recommend this to anyone who loves stories with passion, love, friendship and romance. And to anyone who loves Nicole Jordan!
