terrific historical romance

In 1822, the three Fairchild debutantes (Ava, Phoebe and Greer) became desperate to keep up their social lifestyle amidst the Ton although they are penniless ever since their stepfather stole their fortune. Ava learns THE HAZARDS OF HUNTING A DUKE and Greer THE PERILS OF PURSUING A PRINCE so with her siblings married Phoebe decides to turn to trade, a taboo amidst her peers. She hides behind the persona of Madame Dupree, the creator of gowns that the female aristocracy craves wearing. Viscount Will Darby hires Madame Dupree to make gowns for his sisters. However, his family treats Phoebe as a lowlife servant; a position she struggles to accept as she is unused to being mistreated. Worse she is attracted to her host and Will reciprocates. As they fall in love, Madame Dupree knows that if Phoebe is exposed the scandal will harm more than just the last Desperate Debutante as her sisters will feel the scorn. This Regency and its predecessors are terrific historical romances starring likable lead characters. Fans will enjoy the antics of Madame Dupree and the return as support to Phoebe of her sisters. The story line is amusing while once again emphasizing the importance of family. With 1824 being the year of Desperate Debutantes' babies, perhaps the talented Julia London can provide the audience with early Victorian the next generation saga. Harriet Klausner

The Dangers of Deceiving a Viscount

Forced by circumstance to work, Lady Phoebe Fairchild secretly designs and makes gowns for the ton. If her secret were to be exposed, Lady Phoebe would be ruined. To prevent her unveiling as the very much sought after modiste, Madame Dupree, Phoebe is blackmailed into journeying to the country to design and make gowns for the sisters of William Darby, the Viscount of Summerfield. William is unaware of Phoebe's deception and believes Phoebe to be the widowed Madame Dupree. When William asks Phoebe to become his mistress, she declines. Phoebe responds to his kisses with passion and William sets out to seduce Phoebe into his bed. Will falling in love with the Viscount of Summerfield as Madame Dupree ruin Lady Phoebe's chance for happiness? What a tangled web! The Dangers of Deceiving a Viscount has sizzling sexual tension and nerve-wracking conflict. Both the sexual heat and the conflict make The Dangers of Deceiving a Viscount a real lip biter. Julia London is a master at making my heart race! Annmarie Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

GREAT BOOK!!

Great ending to The Desperate Debutantes trilog. Phoebe character was great and the Viscount of Summerland character wasn't too shabby either. Had a few tears in my eyes when Phoebe thought she had lost William. Enjoyed this book, as well as the other two, their on my book shelf to read again, another day. Thanks Julia for 3 great books.

A Sure Keeper!

Wow, I liked the first two quite a lot, but this one was Fabulous! I liked the characters, the story was good, and the H/H chemistry was really great. I like enough passion and humor mixed to make a great story, this book had that. I would have liked a little more info into his travels and a more in depth ending, but don't get me wrong, I Loved this book. The best I have read in a while.

ANOTHER GREAT ONE FROM LONDON

Julia London just doesn't write a bad book. This one is a winner and I was pleased with Phoebe's story - I hate spoilers so I won't go into storyline. I just want to say it's worth buying. I read about a book a day and love it when I find one with characters that are memorable and well developed. Also, reading so much makes the really good books and good authors stand out, so I was quite pleased when I read this one. I liked these characters early on which makes me want to read the book without putting it down. I recommend reading all of London's books.
