The Rake's Unconventional Mistress Kindle Edition

by Juliet Landon (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars 11 ratings
See all formats and editions
Miss Letitia Boyce didn't begrudge her sisters their fun with the pick of London's available bachelors. She'd chosen her path and knew book-learning and marriage rarely mixed. Her proof was Lord Seton Rayne, who had made it abundantly clear that an unmarried schoolma'am was of no interest to him—no matter her good connections.

Wealthy and titled, one of the most notorious rakehells in town, Seton had every heiress hurling herself at him. So his sudden kissing of captivating, unconventional Letitia took them both by surprise….

About the Author

Juliet Landon is a professional embroiderer and lecturer, whose two disciplines go perfectly hand in hand. When she’s not doing one, she’s doing the other, often both on the same day. Her stories develop in her mind while stitches form on the fabric, and the one that wins depends on urgency and inclination. Juliet has been nominated for the Romantic Fiction Writer's Award, and she currently has at least another hundred ideas waiting to be released in the future.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2011
Not even for the kindle version. This book was horrifically bad, absolutely hodge-podge. Utterly unrealistic and dissatisfying to say the least. Based on her other books the writer isn't terrible, but this book is.

3.0 out of 5 stars Engaging Writer, Poor Plottiing and Scenarios
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2009
It is unfortunate indeed that this writer chose to place her protagonist in such unlikely situations. No woman, I repeat, no woman of the time would have acted the way Letitia acted. It just didn't happen. I believe that an author who wants to modernize her heroine should do a time travel novel. Please don't insult your intelligent reader's intelligence by creating people and placing them in improbable situations. It makes the author look like a lazy, trifling idiot.

On the plus side, the author knows how to create sexual tension between her main characters. The repartee was delicious, and I can say even better than most of the drivel I have read recently. If Ms. Landon can remain historically accurate and also provide interesting, intelligent, sizzling repartee and romance between her characters, she will have won me over. This is the first book I've read by her, and it's not bad. Just not Georgette Heyer by a country mile. She got three stars from me based on her writing ability alone, not the story line.

It would be a miracle if the editors of these books would do their jobs and stop printing them. But then, could it be that they are just as lazy and trifling as the authors?

2.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating!
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2009
I usually enjoy Juliet Landon's books, but this one was so full of historic inaccuracies, I could not believe she had written it!
The Heroine, Letitia, was a 'lady of quality' who ran a girls Seminary (I did not see any evidence of her teaching!) for young ladies who seemed to just run around Richmond and London endlessly. Two of seven got in rather large trouble due to her inattention and inexperience. The Hero had little or no substance other that saving the Heroine! And oh, did I mention that the lady also anonymously wrote steamy books everyone was reading?
For a 24 year old young lady to be running a school with various loosely employed (many male!) teachers, to be proclaiming to her uncle she was going to be a mistress, and to be sleeping with the Hero AT THE SCHOOL struck me as rediculous!!!! Pass this one by--I wish I had!
