Title: Written in haste--and it shows
Review: Julia Quinn's next book was supposed to be "The Two Dukes of Wyndham," but, as the author herself reported on her website, she found it impossible to write one duke's story without writing the other's simultaneously. But I guess she had a contractual obligation to deliver a book for June 2007, and this is the very, very disappointing result.The hero is thoroughly unlikeable, the heroine only slightly less so. The hackneyed "I had my heart broken and will never love again" conflict is tritely handled. And Quinn's usually sparkling repartee sometimes devolves into the heroine pounding her little fists against the hero's broad chest--please, Julia, you can do better than this!Save your money and re-read "When He Was Wicked."
