A Gilded Novel | Available Now


Book Blurb:

From New York Times bestselling author Marie Force comes a glittering tale of star-crossed romance set amid the lavish mansions and decadent lifestyles of early 20th century Newport, Rhode Island. But even in an age of great fortune, the heart has its own idea of true riches . . .

Wealthy American industrialist Aubrey Nelson has invited the Duke and Duchess of Westbrook to visit his family’s Newport seaside “cottage” for the summer. With his parents’ departure from New York delayed, Aubrey’s mother sends him ahead to oversee preparations for their guests. But when he arrives, he’s surprised to find the house and staff in disarray . . .

With much to do and little time, Aubrey comes to rely on the housekeeper, a lovely young Irish woman named Maeve Brown. And when he also finds himself confiding in Maeve about more personal matters, he tells himself it’s merely their close proximity that draws him to the compassionate, hard-working beauty. Yet when he suspects Maeve is in danger, Aubrey realizes his feelings for her have grown much deeper than they should have. For what will his mother, who dreams of a society match for her son, have to say when she arrives to discover he’s lost his heart to a girl of the working class? 

Praise for Duchess by Deception “Full of flashy wealth and drama…Aubrey and Maeve have great chemistry, the friendships are strong, and the romance is passionate and well developed.”Publishers Weekly

MY REVIEW:

I’ve read Marie Force romances before, all contemporary with an edge of erotica, so when I was offered the chance to read this Historical romance, I jumped at the idea. I had to read it.

The story is set in the early 1900’s embracing all the changes that the Industrial Age procured for men and women, and all the possibilities. I loved that. I also enjoyed how the author built a story that’s a little bit of Cinderella but with a side of suspense.

DECEIVED BY DESIRE it’s the story of Maeve Brown, an Irish girl, and her employer Aubrey Nelson. She’s the housekeeper for his Newport home, and when he first saw her he fell madly in lust with Maeve. Yes, madly, as in pretend to be a butler to get to know her better kind of madness which was kinda fun if you ask me. 

They have the task to get ready Aubrey’s summer home to receive his friends and family for the summer, and while they’re working side by side, Aubrey’s lust turns into love. But when danger follows Maeve from Ireland to Newport, Aubrey will do everything he can to keep her safe.  And to make her fall in love with him, because he’s sure his sentiments aren’t one-sided.

I really enjoyed this suspenseful, surprising and sensual love story, about finding love and friendship despite wealth. And despite being part of a series, I didn’t feel as I was missing something so I can recommend it as a standalone just fine.
