Get ENTANGLED in your weekend reading - HISTORICAL ROMANCE Edition!



Time to get ENTANGLED in your weekend reading with a selection of THREE Historical Romance titles AVAILABLE NOW from Entangled Publishing! That’s right. THREE titles to choose from...or don’t, I highly suggest the don’t option because they’re all A-MA-ZING, but I digress. They span the range of their imprints, two from Amara and one from Scandalous, but they all deliver the amazing stories, heroines, heroes, and HEAs you’ve come to know and love. So, let’s get this party started, and dive between the epages of our featured titles...

Libby and Kerr were such an unexpected, yet delightful couple that never should have been! He was asked to essentially “babysit” Libby for three of his gentleman friends, all in the same night, while they handled other affairs, whether business or pleasure, and kept her as a potential lady in waiting for their hand in marriage. How romantic, right? Yeah, right...but Kerr is anything but a good babysitter, and the sparks that fly from the start to everything to keep your heart in the right place while story unfolds. You can’t help but root for “the last lord standing” to be Kerr, scandalous talk be darned. It just goes to show you, never judge a book by its cover, nor the attractiveness of a person by a lack of title!

Charlotte and Finneas, another combination that didn’t seem like it would take, and yet made absolutely perfect since when all was said and done. They knew each other for SO LONG...so friends-to-lovers is a tentative trope...but then you have the enemies-to-lovers action because being “kidnapped”, even by someone you know, when you were on your way to your betrothed doesn’t exactly scream friendly fire. All is not lost though because although the actions were misguided, they came from the heart...and that heart beats far more fiercely for Charlotte than he’s willing to initially let on. Good thing the attempted kidnapping goes sideways because the whole forced proximity trope takes over, and yeah, feelings are revealed loud and clear with that HEA just waiting in the wings as the unexpected love reveals itself and gathers steam. Really loved these two together, and I think you will too!

Lavinia and Alexander...honestly, I think out of the four featured between these books, this was was favorite pair! They were PERFECT for each other and the whole “ugly duckling turned swan” story for her was a long time coming...after all, just because she doesn’t simper and try to impress, shouldn’t make her any less marriage material, and really, how can a fellow bookworm not recognize herself in Lavinia with her perpetual turn towards books when social situations become simply too much? Being herself allowed her to be found for the treasure she truly is...even if Alexander can truly be as much an a**hat as the next gent in thinking for even a moment that she would share...well, what he thinks she did, and step all over her heart, only to have to suck it up and seek help from someone he would rather not in order to win her favor once again! Yes, be prepared for the ups and downs, but they are SO worth it in the end!

TLC Book Tours presents... THE DUKE'S RULES OF ENGAGEMENT by Jennifer Haymore - REVIEW!

Hi guys!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.

Today, we welcome back TLC Book Tours as we shine the BOOK REVIEW spotlight on a NEW Historical Regency Romance title available now via Entangled Amara! It's a title that celebrated its BOOK BIRTHDAY a week or two back, and while I posted about it briefly, today you get the full monty...so to speak. Anywho, let's get down to BOOKISH business because this is one fans of the genre are not going to want to miss! Ladies and gents, today's blog tour guest and book of choice is...

About the book...
Some matches are made in hell…

Joanna Porter loves being one of London’s hottest up-and-coming matchmakers. But her heavenly vocation is about to turn into a nuptial nightmare—thanks to the Duke of Crestmont. He’s as handsome as he is insufferable and obsessed with all things proper. Matching him would cement Jo’s status as England’s greatest matchmaker. Except, of course, the impossible-to-please duke refuses all of her most eligible ladies…confirming his status as a complete and utter pain in her petticoats.

The Duke of Crestmont can’t believe he needs a matchmaker—let alone this spitfire of a woman whose kissable mouth and dancing, impertinent gray eyes tease him ruthlessly. But the people of his estate are counting on him to find a duchess. A proper lady with a flawless pedigree and immaculate deportment. So why can’t he stop himself from wanting his pert, lively matchmaker…instead of the perfect duchess?

Now the entire ton is watching as this determined, audacious matchmaker takes on the most powerful man in London in USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Haymore’s lively new Regency romp. And this show might just be the most outrageous one yet…





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~





From our wonderfully uncommon Mrs. Porter to our curiously direct Duke of Cresmont, and everyone in-between, you've got a cast worth remembering from start to finish!

 I loved their initial meet cute, even if it wasn't intended to be an actual "cute" in any fashion. They were both so taken by the other, yet desperately trying to deny it...well, in his case anyway, as she was still trying to sort what her feelings actually were in order to get to the denying part. Despite their noble intentions, feelings flare, connections are made, liaisons are had...and hearts are dangerously close to being broken. I mean, what's a girl to do when a duke came to her for her matchmaking services, and the right match, deep down in her heart...is actually HER?  Oh and that kiss?  That KISS!  Even through the pages, it's bound to knock you for a loop because it was just THAT MUCH!  For her, it was everything she didn't know she was missing, especially because it was with the right person...even if she won't admit it.  For him, it was everything because he never intended to feel anything towards his future intended.  He was only in it to fulfill an obligation and supply his line an heir.  When tasked with what he wanted in a duchess, it was abundantly clear, and then some, that he never considered the PERSON to which he would be tied for the rest of his days.  Grant it, it was completely uncommon in this time period, and he would have been content, but how can one accept the bare necessities when you've tasted forbidden fruit you didn't even realize you should be avoiding?

I would wax on about this one point for paragraphs, but I digress...I imagine you would get bored with my ramblings because honestly, you need to read it for yourself!  Beyond "the moment", they capture other moments, and discover that while everything seemed to be playing out as planned, even the best laid ones with the utmost care can come crashing down around you.  There was a time I wanted to throttle same said Duke for letting things carry on the way they did...but suffice it to say all things turn right in the end.  (Yes, there is a HEA to look forward to!)

A great read for fans of the genre, as well as those looking to step into it!
