Lady Claire Is All That

(Keeping Up with the Cavendishes #3)

by Maya Rodale

Her Brains

Claire Cavendish is in search of a duke, but not for the usual reasons. The man she seeks is a mathematician; the man she unwittingly finds is Lord Fox: dynamic, athletic, and as bored by the equations Claire adores as she is by the social whirl upon which he thrives. As attractive as Fox is, he’s of no use to Claire . . . or is he?

Plus His Brawn

Fox’s male pride has been bruised ever since his fiancée jilted him. One way to recover: win a bet that he can transform Lady Claire, Society’s roughest diamond, into its most prized jewel. But Claire has other ideas—shockingly steamy ones. . .

Equals A Study In Seduction
By Claire’s calculations, Fox is the perfect man to satisfy her sensual curiosity. In Fox’s estimation, Claire is the perfect woman to prove his mastery of the ton. But the one thing neither of them counted on is love . . .

Maya Rodale began reading romance novels in college at her mother’s insistence and it wasn’t long before she was writing her own. Maya is now the author of multiple Regency historical romances. She lives in New York City with her darling dog and a rogue of her own.

This is the third book in the series and I have read the second book, Chasing Lady Amelia. These books take place in the same timeline, so they don’t have to be read in order and each can be read as a standalone.

Lady Claire Is All That was an “opposites attract” type of romance and what I enjoyed the most was that neither one of them wanted the other to change. I really liked to see how the relationship developed. And though the romance was very sweet, I wanted more sexy times, ’cause I prefer my romances steamier. Two antagonist characters who caused some – predictable – conflicts, weren’t imperative to the story. The conflicts could have been handled in a more organic way.

It was well written and a page turner, the tone was fun and humorous, as you can expect from Rodale’s novels. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book, James and Meredith’s story!

 I voluntarily reviewed an eARC of this book.
