HISTORICAL ROMANCES
Early Books:
The Runaway Duke – early work, dated
To Love a Thief – very enjoyable
Three Sisters Trilogy: early series, fine
Beauty and the Spy
Ways to Be Wicked
The Secret to Seduction
Pennyroyal Green Series:
The Perils of Pleasure – fun
Like No Other Lover – Delightful, hot
Since the Surrender – fine, prostitution shouldn’t be funny
I Kissed an Earl – very popular
What I Did for a Duke – CLASSIC, fantastic hero
How the Marquess Was Won – really good, but it fell apart
A Notorious Countess Confesses – excellent
It Happened One Midnight – very good, but somehow not memorable
Between the Devil and Ian Eversea – meh, more of the hero from What I Did for a Duke
It Started with a Scandal – enjoyable enough, but nothing special
The Legend of Lyon Redmond – FANTASTIC, better if you read the series first
Malcolm and Isabel (Malcolm/Isabel) – contemporary coda to the series

Hi, are the books in the Pennyroyal Green Series have to be read in order?
No, they don’t except for The Legend of Lyon Redmond. Read it last.
As noted, I don’t recommend all of them. Skip through the series and then read the not as great ones if you like it.
