Book Description
Lucinda is the last of three friends who agreed to turn the tables on London's most incorrigible rakes. But love is the farthest thing from her mind.
A Hero in DisguiseWith her two best friends happily married, Lucinda Barrett realizes she can no longer put off her lessons in love. The rogue she hopes to educate must be someone who will keep her life steady and uneventful -- and that someone is definitely not Robert Carroway! The handsome, brooding war hero is far too complicated, and he shuns London society and its “trivialities.” Still, it is a pleasant surprise when Robert offers to assist Lucinda in her mission to reform and wed a more suitable nobleman. Now if only she can resist the sensuous allure of Robert's astoundingly blue eyes -- and his intense inner fire that leaves her breathless. Lucinda wants a husband, not a passionate, irresistible lover who could shake her world with one deep, lingering kiss. And her heart is telling her that this man could be the most dangerous, disastrous…and exhilarating love she will ever know.

This is what romance is all about...,

This review is from: England's Perfect Hero (Mass Market Paperback)
I love Suzanne Enoch's books - they're always entertaining and often laught-out-loud funny. But this one was different.It wasn't good. It was fantastic. The story of Robert's recovery is handled with such finess, I fell in love with him myself on page two and couldn't wait to see them together. I believed his reaction to the horrors of the war - and I felt it in no way impacted his manliness. In fact it made him human. And dynamic. This is one of the few romances I've read lately that I didn't feel the need to skip through. I read every word and enjoyed it all. I can only hope that the completion of the lessons will not mean the end of this series. We've still got a few Carroway brothers to marry off, and I want to see these two settled...

Starts off stong, but ultimately inconsistant,
This review is from: England's Perfect Hero (Mass Market Paperback)
I was truly enjoying this book as it began. I am always drawn more to character driven romances than those powered by a mystery or event. My problem with the book is that the plot changes mid-story. Robert is a tortured hero in the beginning, having debilitating panic attacks and unable to converse with his family. In a matter of a few weeks, though (the whole story took no more than a few weeks from start to finish) he's completely overcome these problems, fallen in love, and solved the mystery of who framed him. I'm afraid I just don't buy it. I wish Ms. Enoch had just focused on Robert and Lucinda's relationship and left the mystery for another story. It didn't meld well with this one. To add this element, she had to resolve Robert's problems much too quickly.

Very Good,
By A Customer
This review is from: England's Perfect Hero (Mass Market Paperback)
One reviewer called Robert a "wimp." I couldn't disagree more with this statement. Anyone who's gone through torture and almost died well, I think if they started to have nightmares that's normal and as someone else says makes you human. Well I guess some women could see him as damaged or a wimp, and that's fine It's why he needed a special woman to pull him out of it. I didn't like Suzanne Enoch's novella in Lady Whistledown, but this book was very very good, and she has gone up in my estimation.
