Product Description
SHE'D FOUND THE MAN OF HER DREAMS.
UNFORTUNATELY, HE DIDN'T WANT THE ROLE . . .
It was well known that what Chloe Somersham wanted, Chloe got. She wasn't spoiled or odiously rude. She was simply a very willful and spirited sprite, no doubt due to those blazing curls atop that pixie face. Despite her large dowry and her father's apoplectic pleas to make a suitable match, she remained unwed, dreaming instead of travel and adventure.
But when she met Liam MacRaith, Lord Mountrath, whose Irish eyes spoke of magnificent emerald isles and far-off magic, she made her choice. She wanted Liam--despite her father's ranting (an Irishman!) or the fact that Liam had no intention of marrying this outrageous hellion. True, he desperately needed funds and her fey Celtic beauty was intriguing. But he made his own decisions, thank you.
The challenge was on. The bets were laid, and the Town eagerly watched with gleeful anticipation. Would Chloe get what she wanted, once again? None were more curious than Lord Mountrath himself!
"[Emma Jensen is] a bright new star in the Regency heavens."

One of My Favorite Regencies,
By A Customer
This review is from: What Chloe Wants (Mass Market Paperback)
Emma Jensen writes excellent regencies and is one of the best out there. This book is wonderful: funny, very witting, vivid characters, and a plot that's always moving and never mundane (even though it is true to regency form). Even if you can only get it used, it's very much worth it.

A new "old favorite"--straight to the "keeper shelf!",
By Cilla - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: What Chloe Wants (Mass Market Paperback)
I enjoyed this book immensely. Chloe was a wonderful, funny heroine, and Liam was the perfect match for her--good sense of humor as well as being a "hunk." Chloe's father, a duke, makes an ultimatum, that Chloe must choose a husband by the end of the London Season, or he will do it for her. Her antics have gotten her into trouble, as usual, and he decides that marrying her off will solve the problem. She has to marry at least an earl, or greater rank. He forgets to specify "Not Irish!" Chloe literally bumps into the hero on the street, and is infatuated at first sight. Over the course of the book, she develops a love for the hero as well, as she spends more time with him. She unfortunately blurts out in front of a crowd that she "wants him," the second time she sees him, and Liam is much too proud to be bought with Chloe's father's money. He is an impoverished land-owner. The book is sweet and also has great laugh-aloud scenes and dialogues. Chloe tends to talk by running on from topic to topic, and it is so funny when Liam tries to follow her train of thought, often getting de-railed by her. I laughed so hard over one scene that I scared the cat, who was sitting next to me! I couldn't put the book down, and it read way too quickly. Besides the great hero and heroine, the author brings back some of her characters from earlier books, which made the book even more enjoyable. Definitely a keeper, and worth paying the price for it out of print!
