My new favorite author. Just enough romance and love making to make you feel the passion while creating a wonderful story. Can’t wait to start book 2.
Never a Mistress, No Longer a Maid
by Maureen Driscoll
ADVISORY FROM THE AUTHOR: This book contains mature content, including explicit language of graphic sexual situations. To quote a one-star review, "This was a story that felt like it was made just to write a LOT of sex scenes." And, well, kind of, yes. If you don't like explicit sex, this is not the book for you. If you like a lot of history in your romances, you may also wish to give this one a pass -- history pretty much begins and ends with the reference to the Battle of Waterloo. But if you like a spicy story of a nice family in London and a laugh or two along the way, I hope you'll sit back with a cup of tea (not mandatory) and enjoy. -- Maureen Driscoll
Caught behind enemy lines at the Battle of Waterloo, nurse Jane Wetherby is forced to seek shelter with British operative Lord Edward Kellington. After a night of passion, the two are separated. With nothing but the alias Jane used to protect her family, Lord Edward is unable to find the woman he can’t forget.
Seven years later, Jane courts scandal by serving as the unofficial surgeon in the village of Marston Vale. When Edward arrives to formalize his betrothal to a viscount’s daughter in accordance with his late father’s wishes, Jane has no choice but to watch the match proceed. When a threat from the past emerges, Jane must join forces with Edward to safeguard her loved ones. But at what risk to her heart…
NEVER A MISTRESS, NO LONGER A MAID is the first novel in the six-book Kellington saga.
Reviews
I appreciate a LOT That the author warned me in te "about" before I started reading! BUT (And I assume this is the marketing Decision not the author's decision) BUT If this book is that sexually explicit that the author feels honor bound to warn readers of sexual content THEN The disclaimer should be made in the advertising as well. Because honestly there's probably as many people that would buy it for explicit content and be happy as there are those of us who will not buy it.
I am totally happy to remove my one star ( I did NOT read this) if the publisher\marketing will extend people the courtesy of warning prospective buyers that this is explicit!!!
Well written and entertaining story. So many great characters that there will have to be more in an interesting series
