Book Review: To Catch a Lady by Pamela Labud
If you want to read a book that is a light read and has characters that you will enjoy getting to know , then "To Catch a Lady" is for you. I really enjoyed this book. I wanted to read a book that was lighthearted, not too serious and just an enjoyable read for a few hours. I found that in this book. Ashton Blakely and Caroline Hawkins are their own worst enemies at times almost keeping themselves from being able to let themselves be loved. I had to laugh at some of the plans or schemes that they planned and played on each other. I did not want to put the book down because I wanted to see if they ever did get over themselves and just enjoy being married.
Here is how Amazon describes the book:
If you love Mary Balogh and Eloisa James, don’t miss Pamela Labud’s sensuous Hunt Club series! To Catch a Lady introduces four lordly, rakish sportsmen whose bachelor paradise is threatened by a matchmaking aunt—and by the sting of unexpected love.
Ashton Blakely, the Duke of Summerton, cannot stop his aunt from meddling in his affairs. So rather than let her select a most disagreeable mate, Ashton decides to fire the first volley by holding a ball as a scheme to bag the ideal wife: a deferential girl eager to produce and raise an heir, leaving Ashton to his beloved hunting lodge and titled friends. But when Ashton falls for the one woman who isn’t willing to play his game, all his plans scatter like buckshot. Suddenly, the chase is on!
Caroline Hawkins has no interest in marriage. In fact, she has devoted her life to defending women from the indignities visited upon them by their husbands. She only chaperones her beautiful younger sister to Summerton’s ball in the hopes of saving her family from bankruptcy. She certainly doesn’t expect to catch the Duke’s eye . . . nor is she prepared for the heat that rises every time she thinks of his powerful build or his dark, tantalizing gaze. Caroline can run, but she cannot hide—for Ashton has already captured her heart.
Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book for my honest review.
