Review: Much Ado About Jack by Christy English

A sexy light-hearted Regency inspired by Much Ado About Nothing… 

Angelique Beauchamp, the widowed Countess of Devereaux, has vowed never to re-marry. Twice burned by love, she is certain that no man will ever touch her heart again. But that doesn’t mean she can’t indulge a little—and the dashing Captain James Montgomery is as passionate as he is handsome.

After a brief but torrid affair, James tries to forget Angelique and the powerful emotions she evokes. The luscious lady was quite clear that their liaison was temporary. But for the first time, the lure of the sea isn’t powerful enough to keep him away. It’s going to take much ado to woo his reluctant lady…

Reviewer’s Thoughts

A regency novel with a twist. Ms. English thrilled me by bypassing the usual ballroom scenes (that can get very boring) and diving straight into the life of the very independent and confident Angelique Beauchamp. I love when a main character has a mind of her own, and isn’t afraid to use it.

As for the dashing Captain James Montgomery (Jack), who could ask for a sexier man to follow you around? Determined to bed the countess, James certainly meets his mental match.

Much Ado About Jack is a great story from start to finish. I really enjoyed reading it.
