Description

All of London looks forward to the Dowager Duchess of Clayworth's annual ball. For no matter how hard the serious society matron strives to host an elegant event, scandal always ensues . . .

Seven years ago it was a young Serena Donovan and Jonathan Dane who shocked the ton when they were discovered in a most compromising position. Tonight they return for the first time as the Earl and Countess of Stratford. And while Serena hopes for a quiet evening to introduce her younger sister Olivia to society, Jonathan's only desire is to pick up where he and Serena left off . . .

Though innocent Olivia secretly longs for the kind of passion her sister shares with her husband, none of the men she's met spark a fire inside her heart-least of all the notorious Marquis of Fenwicke. When his request for a waltz turns into something sinister, Olivia must use her wit and wiles to evade a powerful peer who vows if can't have her, no man shall...

A waste of money. The story ends abruptly and then it's all previews. Wished I could get my money back!!!!
True, This is not a story, rather it is a sample of her other books.The "other" books btw are $7.99

Literally just samples. You are left with a "What?!?" True, it did make me want to find out what happened, but what I DID find out is that to find out, you need to pay $7.99 each for 2 different books. Horrible

What the hell was this, not a book, where is the rest of the story?
I thought I was buying a book and instead got three previews.
False advertising? Misleading..........So where is the rest of the story?
Not even worth 1star!

This was my first download and a good lesson learned-ALWAYS READ the reviews before purchasing!!
Excerpts from previously released books does NOT make for an actual book. Not even if it only cost .99
Honestly I thought this was a new author trying to build up a following.
Unfair calling 68 pages a book

Even though it was only $0.99 it was a waste of money that I would have used to purchase a complete book. I feel it would be the honorable thing by this "book" to issue a refund to our accounts. This was very misleading to the reader saying you were purchasing an actual book length book. I'm very disappointed and discouraged as this was my first purchase from this online book site. I will not ever purchase this author again. I feel previews of books should be free. Thank you.
Waste of money

First of all, I didn't want to believe the reviews about this book, so I purchased it. The description is not sufficient to the reader about the book.

This "book" is just a compilation of three previews of books from the author. I don't believe it's fair to not have a proper description of this book for potential buyers to read.

Even though I only spent $0.99 on this, I strongly believe that previews or samples should be free and that the reader should be told in advance about the content that they are purchasing.

This should have been the introduction to An Accidental Dutchess rather than a stand alone novel. Waste of money to purchase. I will not buy any more of his authors books.one star is to generous
