A Brilliant Deception, July 23 2009
By Mark L. Crabtree "Gadget Dude" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: A Brilliant Deception (Hardcover)
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I do not normally read Christian fiction but liked this book a lot! The characters are wonderfully developed and likeable. These characters along with the mystery made it a great read - read it in one afternoon.

Fabulous Regency Romance!, April 12 2008
By Michelle Sutton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: A Brilliant Deception (Hardcover)
I love how this author always develops a spark of attraction between unlikely characters. And as usual, this story did not disappoint. Set in Regency England, A Brilliant Deception is as full of sparkle as the jewels on the cover. The balls, the elite, the rules of society, and all of the trappings of the culture play into this story to make for a great setting. The conversations between characters are incredibly well-done and so typical of the culture. Especially the ones between Colin and Lily. And yet, the author does such a wonderful job on each character's inner voice, that you feel like you know them and understand their hearts. The romane sizzles (within the limits of the culture, of course) and I loved every minute of it. Every Lily in this world wants--no, needs a Colin. This romance will delight readers who love this era and enjoy a good love story. I hope there is another book in this series. I would love to see Emily and Michael get together. That, too, would be an awesome tale!

Slow, July 15 2010
By Jo Reader "Jo" - Published on Amazon.com

The story was slow to get started, so it failed to keep my interest.
Because there is so many really good books out, I did not finish the story. I stopped at chapter 6.
