Rea of Rea's Reading and Reviews and Tara of Basically Books often read very different books but sometimes find interesting new books to potentially add to the ever-growing monsters that their TBR piles have morphed into. However, they know that they do not have 100% the same taste and wanted another way of getting a look at these books...
Do you ever feel like getting a bit of a taster for a book you've been thinking of reading but aren't fully sold on yet? Do you feel like sharing a taster for your current read with the world? Well, here's your chance.
Each week the random number generator will pick a number between 1 and 100 for books with pages or 1 and 25% for ebooks. They figured that these numbers would keep out of spoiler territory. Open your book to the specified place and pick a paragraph. Share it with the World!
The numbers for this week are:
Page 7 for books
16% for ebooks
My Book:
Lady Maggie's Secret Scandal (The Duke's Daughters #2)(Windham #5)
BY: Grace Burrowes
This is an ARC that I will be reviewing. This book comes out May 1st !
"Maggie Windham prowled down the staircase, a shimmery brown silk paisley wrap dangling from her shoulders, and soft green velvet clinging to her curves. The dress was gratifyingly low from a male perspective. What made the whole ensemble so riveting was... that hair. She'd piled much of it high in a soft coil on her crown, adding to her height, making her even more striking. But the rest of it, oh, the rest of it... It came down around her shoulders in curls and riots, dropped down her back in an ongoing cascade of auburn, and swished around her hips-her curvaceous, womanly hips-to tease against her fundament as she moved.
It was daring, different, and yet, not quite indecent.
Hazlit's hands ached at his sides, though whether he wanted to get a fistful of her hair or spank her, he couldn't say.
"I've taken a sudden notion to appreciate mature females," Deene was saying. "Though if her brothers ask, I'm being protective in their absence. Hold my drink."
I love this book so far. I fell in love with the Windham's from the very first book The Heir . This book is about Maggie the oldest of the girls who has been permanently put on the shelf. She finds herself in need of an investigator, Mr. Benjamin Hazlit, to find her reticule. An innocent request turns into playing with fire. Will they be able to find her missing reticule without getting burned in the process?
Those who love Historical Romance this book is for you!
Thank you Netgalley for providing me with an ARC to review.

This book sounds like lots of fun! I love an occasional forray into the realm of historical romance and this one sounds as though it could well tickle my fancy!
I love Deene's remark at the end! hehe.
