I’ve been waiting for Meg’s story for awhile and it did not disappoint! I really thought I had this story figured out but that last 20% of the book had a number of twist and turns I didn’t see coming.Meg is getting over a heartbreak by going on a grand adventure with her favorite aunts. Before they leave England they visit the home of a very anti-social Duke. There seems to be a spark when Meg and Lucian meet but Lucian only goes after Meg thinking she stole something from him. Meg let’s him think that to get more time from him.However, Meg seems to get more than she bargained for and her adventure sets both on a very different course. Never Seduce a Duke (The Mating Habits of Scoundrels, 5) Online PDF eBook epub online I enjoyed read about Lucien and Meg, how they met to how they fell in love. He thought she stole his family's heritage book so he pursued her across the continent where they got to know each other. They had one night of passion and a precious little girl was born of it. I hope there is more to read about them, I loved this book. I highly recommend this book! 👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤ PDF Never Seduce a Duke (The Mating Habits of Scoundrels, 5) ebook link Well written story with great characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I would recommend. ePUB Never Seduce a Duke (The Mating Habits of Scoundrels, 5) ebook inglese I read the previous book in the series and enjoyed it very much, so I tried this one, but it didn't hit the sweet spot for me. Lucien has a family heirloom from Arthurian legend and thinks that Meg stole it. Their meeting was the scene basically from Pride & Prejudice, where Darcy meets Elizabeth at Pemberley, but it doesn't work out quite the same for Lucien and Meg. Lucien has a family heirloom from Arthurian legend and thinks that Meg stole it, so he ends up chasing her across Europe, where she and two elderly chaperones are touring.The premise is good, with lots of Arthurian references, but the execution didn't work quite as well for me. Meg and Lucien are good characters on their own, but Meg ends up being a bit too desperate for his love. Then there's a time skip and a happy resolution that's marred by a ridiculous subplot involving the stolen heirloom. It's an okay read and sometimes funny, but too much of the story 'jumped the shark' for me. (PDF) Never Seduce a Duke (The Mating Habits of Scoundrels, 5) I always enjoy Vivienne Lorret as a writer, but after wanting to give the first half of this book 4 1/2 stars, the second half was a bit of a 3 ish star letdown, so I'm averaging my rating to 4 stars.The set-up is what attracted me. There's a mistaken identity plot, two mischievous aunts, and a grouchy hermit of a duke, Lucien, who is mystified by the outspoken MFC, Meg. Meg is on holiday with her aunts as a last hurrah before she formally enters spinsterhood, with no expectations to marry after having had her heart broken years before. She ends up taking an impromptu tour of Lucien's home due to the machinations of her matchmaking relations, and bumps into the pedantic duke. Lucien becomes convinced that she has stolen a treasured family heirloom, a collection of recipes tied to Arthurian legends, and doggedly tracks her around Europe in an attempt to retrieve it.Of course, what he really wants is to get closer to Meg, he just doesn't realize it.The first half of the plot moves along lightly and breezily, with plenty of humor and smart banter between the MC's. Lucien is a quirky MMC, seeming to be somewhat on the spectrum, and his bond with Meg starts as more cerebral and friendship-based than steamy. I enjoyed the slow-burn aspect of their relationship, as well as the teasing quips between Lucien and his more worldly cousin, who definitely is aware of the burgeoning romance. The scenes and dialog feel vivid and fresh and it's fun seeing the relationships unfold.Unfortunately, the second half of the book isn't as charming. I was hoping that the writer would be talented enough to steer clear of the "hidden baby" (one of my least favorite tropes) pitfalls. Such is not the case. Two years pass after the first half of the book, and the tone of the second half is darker and more angsty. The baddie is exactly who you expect, and I found myself wanting to shake both Lucian and his cousin for not being sharper on the uptake, as well as Meg for not having the backbone to be honest at two key points in her life. You have the typical too-pat coincidences and misunderstandings, and even though Lucian grovels quite nicely at the end, he and Meg never quite regain the sweetness they had in the first part of the book. Plus, you have the re-introduction of Meg's old flame, which serves no purpose; he's honestly not a very sympathetic character.Overall: Vivienne Lorret is a talent, and so much of the first half of this works, but eventually the plot relies too much on standard tropes and not enough on the strength what could have been a unique, charming romance.Steam level: 3.I read an advanced reader copy of this book and this is my voluntary review. Opinions are my own.
