Darius: Lord Of Pleasures (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

Not a single flaw. What a hero! Emotionally damaged,Darius has chosen to earn coin by playing the role of cicisbeo to two maladaptive females. He has an estate to support run by otherwise unemployable servants and a young boy who is in his protection. His father, an earl, has cut off all funds to him. He also looks after his younger sister and older brother (recently widowed). And yet. He is hired by Vivian's elderly husband to get her with child in order to secure the man's estate as he has no legitimate heir.He slowly, excruciatingly slowly, seduces Vivian who is timid to the extreme. I was seduced right along with her, he was so thoughtfully thorough. Grace Burrowes writes such incredible characters, both heroes and heroines. I'm reading out of order and the heroes keep getting better and better. What am I going to do when I'm done with this series? Please keep writing Ms. Burrowes! The only thing better for a binge reader than stumbling across an author of G.B.'s high caliber of writing about complicated adults in love and crisis is finding out that she has such an extensive backlist. Vivian and Darius are opposite sides of the same coin in that circumstances spared Vivian from needing to resort to doing what Darius does to survive. There's so much to appreciate about the way G.B. endows her characters with their contradictory traits, but her ability to portray male adults with fully and unapologetically developed emotional range is my favorite. For me, that emotional gravitas magnifies their masculinity to make them more appealing. This Lonely Lords series has a sadder, more tragic vibe than the Windham series.

What do You think about Darius: Lord Of Pleasures (2013)?

Not bad! I was loving it but then ehh, the narration made me lose interest.

Morose. Unpleasant. Completely uncharacteristic of a historical romance.
