Book Description

November 1, 2005
Readers have fallen in love with New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh's sparkling blend of wit and romance. In this two-in-one volume, the dazzling writer sweeps us back to Regency England, a world of dangerous secrets and glittering intrigue. In More than a Mistress, bold Jane Ingleby interferes in the scandalous Duke of Tresham's Hyde Park duel, causing him to get shot. The Duke hires her as his nurse, but his wound is far less perilous than their growing passion. No Man's Mistress features Lord Ferdinand Dudley, younger brother to the Duke of Tresham, and the strong and beautiful Viola Thornhill, trying to hold onto her home against a man whose kiss she cannot forget.

4.0 out of 5 stars Double Dudleys & Secret Identities, December 28, 2010
This review is from: More Than a Mistress and No Man's Mistress: Two Novels in One Volume (Hardcover)
Two stories: Jocelyn and Ferdinand, brothers but vastly different. Jocelyn (More than a Mistress) had always been raised to be heir by a cold and indifferent father and a lapse mother. He knows nothing of love or acceptance for who he is. He is feared by all as a dark man who lives for duels. In steps Jane Ingelsby who interrupts the latest duel and ends up getting Jocelyn shot. She's delayed to work, loses her job, and becomes his nurse. But she won't cower and he's entranced. Their story was a battle of wills that made all the sense in the world. Add to it her secret identity and secret past.

Ferdinand (No Man's Mistress) is a happy go lucky ne'er do well who can never turn down a challenge or wager. He ends up winning a house in the far reaches of the country only to find there's someone already living there. Viola Thornhill is worried he'll recognize her (and her alter ego) eventually but is desperate to hold on to what she knows in her heart was willed to her by the prior owner of the house. Their battle of wills was enjoyable (and somewhat reminiscent of Minx by Julia Quinn) but their ultimate love story made less sense. Altogether, it was a good double-header.

4.0 out of 5 stars More Mistress/No Mistress, November 4, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I read both these books quite awhile ago, but when I saw that Mary Balogh had written another book tying the other 2 with it, I knew I needed to re-read these to books. I thoroughly enjoyed both books. Mary Balogh has a great way of bringing characters to life. I can almost believe they are, or were real people. I have just ordered "The Secret Mistress" and can hardly wait to read it.
