Eloisa James' The Duke is Mine

For my first review I'm going to start with Eloisa James' The Duke is Mine. This is a historical romance from Avon publishing.  I have been a fan of hers for years, and this, her latest, didn't disappoint. Part Princess and the Pea her heroine wends her way to successfully capturing her hero. (That doesn't count a s a spoiler since you already read it was a romance, and the joy of a good romance is there is always a happy ending) The story is 388 pages, and once I picked it up I was a little tired at work the next day because I couldn't go to bed without finishing it.  Both were in awkward situations, she was already engaged since childhood to a dear, but simple minded, man, while he was being pushed towards marriage to her sister- who was raised to make the perfect bride for a Duke.  Olivia is wild and strong willed while her Duke, Quin, is all staid and proper.  A fun read, I highly reccomend it.  Also check out Eloisa's facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/EloisaJamesFans for updates and articles.
