Product Description:


Jack Audley has been a highwayman.



A soldier. And he has always been a rogue. What he is not, and never wanted to be, is a peer of the realm, responsible for an ancient heritage and the livelihood of hundreds. But when he is recognized as the long-lost son of the House of Wyndham, his carefree life is over. And if his birth proves to be legitimate, then he will find himself with the one title he never wanted: Duke of Wyndham.



Grace Eversleigh has spent the last five years toiling as the companion to the dowager Duchess of Wyndham. It is a thankless job, with very little break from the routine . . . until Jack Audley lands in her life, all rakish smiles and debonair charm. He is not a man who takes no for an answer, and when she is in his arms, she's not a woman who wants to say no. But if he is the true duke, then he is the one man she can never have . . .





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Total J.Q. Novice
I've read tons of romance books, but have never read a JQ before. I found this to be an entertaining, but very average read. The heroine was almost too perfect and not very realistic. The hero was sort of cute, but his immediate and constant idolization of Grace was almost too sappy. I like my characters to have at least a few flaws. I think my favorite character was the irritable old dowager duchess. I'll read more by this author - probably the Bridgerton series which comes highly recommended.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Really Julia Quinn?
I have to say that I read these books out of order, starting with "Mr. Cavendish, I presume". Although I didn't LOVE it like I do almost all of Julia Quinn's novels, i was charmed by the main characters and decided to read the other side of the story. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I felt like the story was very shallow and I really disliked the characters. It was like reading a novice authors feeble attempts at writing a romance novel, and of course we all know that Julia ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Oh yes....
"...and in truth there was no way - simply no way - he could do anything in that moment but kiss her.... Anything else would have been a tragedy..." Wo buddy, that moment was worth the price of the book! Now I'm onto Thomas's story (just released in Oct)...



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your hard-earned money!
I read the book. Extremely poor writing. Extremely poor development of characters. Exremely boring plot. Should I say more? I'm just writing this review to warn the people not to spend their hard-earned money on this complete writing failure which somehow got published. It's a total rip-off: I think the big wigs (Quinn's publishers) thought to milk the cash cow (Quinn) at the expense of her creativeness and professionalism, so they got her to publish something so obviously bad as this. Not worth ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Charming, despite itself
The first Julia Quinn novel I ever read was "The Secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever," which I hated so much I threw it against the wall. I was not looking forward to reading "The Lost Duke of Wyndham," but it was in my book pile and I figured I'd give it a whirl.

I'm glad I did.

At first, for the first few chapters, I found the book very annoying and hard to enjoy. There's too much "witty banter" that doesn't feel very witty to me at all. Also, I found the opening ... Read More

Cruise Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries, Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12 passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2, the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining. There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular panoramic views.

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and she will have a British Captain and Officers.   In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000 vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery  in 2006.   Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria.  The lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.

No cruise schedules have yet been announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008.
