Much Ado About You (Essex Sisters, book 1)
Eloisa James
Avon, 2005
A Five Star Book
This book is delightful. The story is clever, witty and intensely sensual, and the budding relationship between Tess and her newly-acquired husband is a delight. This book gets better and better the more times you read it. Ms. James is a truly accomplished author.

Pleasure for Pleasure (Essex Sisters, book 4)
Eloisa James
Avon, 2006
Better in context, I think....
I read this series in order (this is book 4 of 4), and I honestly think that to really enjoy Josie's character--and possibly to appreciate Mayne's--it helps to do that. In fact, if you really like reading things in order (and I do!) you may want to read the Duchess ...

Potent Pleasures
Eloisa James
Island Books, 2000
Engaging, entertaining, and generally brilliant
Both the characters and the story line are engaging and surprising, offering twists just when you think you've figured them out. Something that truly stands out as you read are the colorfulness of secondary characters, and the ease with which the author works them in. ...

An Affair Before Christmas
Eloisa James
Avon, 2007
Eloisa James outdoes herself this time!
Many have already posted the general gist of the plotline so I am going to reiterate what happened and who did what and get to my impressions of the book.
I hadn't felt such an array of emotions- wistfulness, sadness, laughter, annoyance (hate Poppy's mother), ...

Fool for Love
Eloisa James
Avon, 2003
Amazing
This is my favorite book by Eloisa James so far. I truly did not think I would like it at first, but it was a joy to read. The letter in this book was so wonderful that I was very tempted to copy it and give to my husband. I still may!

The Taming of the Duke (Essex Sisters, book 3)
Eloisa James
Avon, 2006
A Wonderful and Sexy Romance
Fie on those who want their heros perfect! The romance between Imogen and Rafe has been simmering away in the two previous books of this series. How wonderful to finally see it blossom. I think Ms. James played this one exactly right. The book is filled with joyous ...

Midnight Pleasures
Eloisa James
Island Books, 2001
Pleasantly Different
Midnight Pleasures is a wondeful read for those who love romance novels, and will capture the hearts and attention of those readers new to the genre. In the 424 page read you will find two enchanting characters that will cause you a great deal of frustration with ...

Enchanting Pleasures
Eloisa James
Dell, 2002
Truly engaging hero and heroine.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found Gabby to be a wonderful character. I get so very tired of authors constantly making their heroines so incredibly beautiful that men fall over with lust just from looking at them. Gabby was a "real" woman, she had normal flaws ...

Besame, Annabel/ Kiss Me Annabel (Las Hermanas Essex)
Eloisa James
Punto De Lectura, 2007
According to Miss Annabel Essex, a husband must be: rich, English and amiable. Luckily she has chosen just the perfect spouse who is nothing like the impoverished Scottish Earl of Ardmore, who has nothing but gorgeous eyes, a brain, and sweet kisses. So what cruel twist of fate put her in a carriage on her way to Scotland along with that ...

Kiss Me, Annabel (Essex Sisters, book 2)
Eloisa James
Avon, 2005
Not enough of Annabel
I did like this book that is the second in the Essex sisters series. I was looking forward to reading Annabel's story, but it seemed as though half the book (maybe a slight exaduration) was dedicated to Imogen who I find to be the most irritating of the four sisters. ...
