Reviews

Deliciously sexy! Sarah MacLean "Jordanmakes a firm argument for more historical romances that dare to live outside the ballroom or even the aristocracy altogether. Her love scenes crackle (don't worry, the book makes good on its deliciously clever title) for those looking for a historical romp that goes a bit further afield than a 19th century estate, The Duke Goes Down is a delightful diversion. Entertainment Weekly It is a truth universally acknowledged that the young lady everyone assumes is mousy has uncharted depths...particularly when theres a scientific sister, an aphrodisiac, and the stepbrother of a duke around. Creative, unique, and racythis story is not unlike the very elixir around which it is based. Jodi Picoult,New York Timesbestselling author, on The Virgin and the Rogue The sixth in the Rogue Files series is a lusty reversal of the rake-and-the-wallflower trope. A refreshing dose of funand the best in the series. Kirkus Reviews(starred review) on The Virgin and the Rogue A powerful aphrodisiac drives the smoldering sixth Regency in Jordans Rogue Files series....This erotically charged historical romance packs a passionate punch. Publishers Weekly on The Virgin and the Rogue A steamy romance full of surprises. Fresh Fiction on The Virgin and the Rogue A surfeit of humor, a zippy pace, and a cast of well-defined and intriguing protagonists make this a delicious late-summer read. Library Journal
