The Texan Duke by Karen Ranney
The mass of emotions illicited by The Texan Duke is breathtaking. With a steady hand and a vivid imagination Ms. Ranney turns chaos into serenity. The tawdry tale of lust, intrigue, dangerous liaisons and emotional upheaval can turn on a dime. Connor and Elsbeth are thrust into a world where nothing is what it seems. As the tension loosens and the links in the chain are exposed, a sweetheart of a romance takes hold and stakes a claim on the most priceless of treasures. A reader's heart. (3.5 stars)
