ROMANCING LADY ROSE
A
Closed Door Regency Romance
SHARIAH DRAKE
Review
by Author Roy Murry
Alice
(Soon-to-be dubbed Lady Rose) is brought by her overbearing mother to a royal birthday
fortnight to secure a wealthy husband. Duke Elias is the one pursued, with the
help of the Dowager.
Elias's friend, Captain Victor, whose demons from the past cloud his judgment, is the duke's protector against "Gold diggers". Victor's communications and tit-for-tat with Alice lead to an uncommon and unetiquette relationship.
The situations that arise during the festivities promote and confirm the amiable agreement between Alice, Elias, and all in attendance that there will be a consummation of Duke and Lady Rose's future. However, Alice and Victor's feelings lead to a scandalous event.
Author Drake's eighteenth-century period story captures the nuances of a time when women were used to elevate a family's standing through marriage. The writing flows well with conversations that the reader will enjoy.
