Dukes to the Left of Me, Princes to the Right (yes quite a mouthful), is the 2nd book in the Impossible Bachelors series. I really loved the first installment and I was very excited to start this one. I read Dukes to the left of Me (for short) very fast. It was a pleasure to read from start to end even if I'm not 100% happy with aspects of the plot. But once again, Kieran portrays great characters you can't help but love.

Lady Poppy has become a master in the art of refusing a proposal. She got a LOT of marriage proposals in the last couple of years. Each time, she refuses, telling her suitor she can't marry him because she's secretly engaged to the Duke of Drummond, that they are in love and will soon marry. Yes, Poppy invented herself a secret admirer to politely refuse her unwanted suitors. Poppy is one bright and fierce young woman . I really liked her and her friends. They decided they'd rather be Spinsters than marry someone they don't love (Good for you girls!). They want to marry for love, they take their future in their own hands rather than let anyone decide for them. Poppy doesn't refuse all these men for no reason, she's been in love with Sergei, a Russian prince, since she was 15, when they met for a week in St Petersburg. She's finally going to see him again after all those years...

Sadly, everything changes when the ,very real, Dukes of Drummond appears one day and asks for her hand in public. As you can see, she can't very well refuse since she's been claiming for years she's been secretly betrothed to him. I really enjoyed the farcical aspect of the situation. It was pretty funny and interesting. Poor Poppy is now engaged to a man she doesn't know when her Prince is finally back in her life. Sergei and his twin sister are very funny characters...funny as in weiiiiird *sing song voice*. I almost felt bad for him at some point. ALMOST lol. There is an aspect of the book I didn't enjoy very much, it's the spy plot. Nicholas Staunton, the Duke of Drummond (Also knows as Lord Maxwell in the previous book), is a spy and he has to marry to 'fly below the radar'. What better choice than to marry the girl who's been telling everyone she was engaged to him for years. There is a scene at the beginning of the book that I found irresistible. When Nicholas asks for Poppy's hand, I was sold. Such a cute and funny book.

As I said, the only thing I wasn't really thrilled about was the spy/secret agents plot which was sometimes a bit predictable. But it was still very difficult to close the book. I really loved the heroes and I had a lot of fun reading this book. I am very excited about this series and I can't wait for the 3rd book to come out. Cloudy with a Chance of Marriage will be released in April 26th, and it'll be about Captain Arrow *g* Woot woot.

3.0 étoiles sur 5 clever storyline, but. . 5 décembre 2010
Par Duchess of Mabank - Publié sur Amazon.com
Format:Poche
Ok, I really have a love-hate relationship with this book. The author shows massive potential, and I gobbled up the first book, When Harry Met Molly. However, this book left me wanting. . . what? Im not sure. It starts out great, then proceeds way to quick.
Our heroine comes face to face with The Duke of Drummond a person who's name she has been using to throw unwanted suitors away thinking it was made up from her wildly imaginative cook and is forced to accept a marriage proposal from him immediately. Unfortunately she believes she is in love with a Russian Prince whom she met at fifteen spent a puppy love week with and who just so happens to have arrived in London as well. Problem? Ten min later her and her "fiance" are making out in a carriage. Wait. What? She's still in love with the Prince right? Didn't she just meet this guy and forced to accept his proposal? While traditionally I hate how romance novelists drag out a story I do still like a basis for the relationship. I also find that when they are starting to warm up to each other the scenes get a little steamy. Im fine with that but what happened to the romance in the end? Storyline, great. Spy aspect very good. Romance? Well. . while you had me intrigued for awhile the ending was a huge upset. You have built these characters up so much that I was sadly disappointed to read you sum up their passion in a few sentences at the end as if the deadline for the editor was approaching or that you were burnt out on the book yourself. I will continue reading your books. I like your plots. I find myself loving your characters I just want my "romance" somewhere in there too.

1.0 étoiles sur 5 silly and boring 9 avril 2011
Par Ludmila Melchior-Yahil - Publié sur Amazon.com

The characters behave like immature adolescents, the plot (both supposed mystery and silly romance) is boring, and the writing at the J.H. level (no offense to all gifted teenage writers.) The first book by Ms.Kramer was at least mildly entertaining, this one is formulaic and annoying. We meet the oh so sexy hero in bed with a hot mistress, who will blackmail him with fake pregnancy, which is terribly inconvenient, because by then he's in lust, love and certainly in bed with our heroine whom he met 5 minutes earlier, but hey, he's so sexy, skilled and seductive that how could she resist, right? Oh, and the mistress is a Russian princess, so I guess this explains why she's stupid, spoiled and scheming... Maybe instead of trying to fake historical romance, the author should switch to cartoonish modern chick lit.

2.0 étoiles sur 5 The author needs to work a little harder 9 décembre 2010
Par Diane Patterson - Publié sur Amazon.com

I'm no Regency historian. I know there are certain tropes familiar to Regency romance readers; some of them are necessary and some you can skirt by. The very premise of this book shows the author wrote the book without having done the most basic research.

The premise of the book is that Poppy is pining for her girlhood crush, a Russian prince she met when she was 15. As a result, she's turned down a ton of proposals from titled gentlemen, some of whom may not have been after her wealth. She does so by claiming a "secret" engagement to the Duke of Drummond...who she thinks doesn't really exist.

Ms. Kramer: there's a book called "Debrett's Peerage." It's been published since 1769. How on Earth Poppy and every other member of her circle is unaware of this book is beyond me. NO ONE thinks to check to see if this is a real Duke or not?

Beyond that, she travels in heavily aristocratic circles. NOT ONCE does she run into someone who actually knows this Duke of Drummond?

In addition, there's much made of the Duke's "reputation", so clearly he's been making waves somewhere.

The heroine, Poppy, has two close friends and together they have formed the Spinsters Club, vowing not to get married except for True Love. Awfully brave of them...are they aware of what's going to happen to them if they don't get married and are stuck on the shelf and aren't taken care of by their fathers? More importantly, is the author aware of what's going to happen to them? Deciding not to get married come hell or high water might be as brave as it seems stupid -- I'd like some indication the author is even aware of these issues.

The author can write, and if she can apply some cursory research to her chosen time period, she might come up with something fun. But I'm going to wait for future reviews before buying.
