Enchanting Pleasures (The Pleasures Trilogy)

This light-hearted book really hit the spot with me. Quill truly found his match in Gabby. I adored Peter and did not like to see him troubled. But honestly, Ms James, did Quill really have to tell Gabby EVERYTHING Peter had said about her? Overall, an excellent book.

I was taken with Quill in MIDNIGHT PLEASURES, and was happy to read his story. He was great, and Gabby was comical and serious and lovely all at the same time, it seemed. Patrick was a nice addition here, as was the wonderful Sophie.

I have to admit, when I saw the premise of the hero having migraines brought on by repetetive movement, I was a little hesitant to read this book. But Ms. James came highly recommended, so I decided to give the book a chance. I'm glad I did.Gabby and Quill's story made me laugh out loud, roll my eyes in exasperation and left me grinning from ear to ear! I really liked both of the main characters, something I've found to be essential in my enjoyment of a good romance. The love story between two of the secondary characters was lovely, too. As another reviewer mentioned, I would love to see that story expanded into a book of it's own.Ms. James has the ability to make her characters vivid and real - they come to life on the page. I'm looking forward to more of her books, as I'm sure she'll get even better in years to come!

Really good book. I liked that he was flawed and how she was not afraid to bring it out into the open and discuss his problem. Of course, the cure for his migraines is a little unbelievable, who knows, maybe poison from tree frogs might just be the cure everyone who suffers is looking for. I liked that right from the start he saw past the rounder than society likes figure to see the beauty and passion in Gabby. And I liked that Gabby was willng to do what it took so that Quill did not have to suffer, even if it took taking charge in the bedroom! Eloisa James has written three very good keeper books and I hope she continues to write for a long time.

In 1806 London, Viscount Dewland informs his younger child Peter that since his older son Quill is disabled and incapable of having a wife, Peter will marry the daughter of his friend Lord Jerningham. Peter refuses, insisting he will never marry. However, the Viscount turns ill as he explodes with anger because he owes his friend who lent him money without any cause or collateral except friendship. Gabrielle will be coming from India to marry Peter or else. Peter reluctantly agrees due to his father's perilous health, but plans to escape his fate.After receiving a picture of her fiance, Gabby looks forward to marrying the gorgeous Peter. However, she fears that she will never attain the level of deployment Peter expects from a wife and activities in London soon prove her correct. Then there is also Quill, who sends her heart aflutter every time she sees him. He, in turn, decides he will marry Gabby regardless of his severe headaches or his younger sibling.As expected from Eloisa James, ENCHANTING PLEASURES lives up to its title as fans of regency romance will receive much pleasure from this enchanting tale. The story line is fresh, but it is the characters who make the tale so crisp. Gabby is an innocent original while the two brothers are the type of male protagonists female readers want in their literature (and in their boudoir). Ms. James is a fabulous talent and her "pleasure" novels continually prove that she is heading to genre greatness.Harriet Klausner
