From Booklist
If Poppy Smith-Barnes knew that the Duke of Drummond really existed—and wasn’t just a sherry-induced figment of her cook’s imagination—Poppy never would have told everyone he is her fiancé. So, of course, when Nicholas Staunton, the newly titled Duke of Drummond, turns up at a society ball with a ring and an offer of marriage, it would seem that Poppy has no choice but to accept. As it turns out, Nicholas really has no choice but to propose to Poppy. If Nicholas wishes to continue his supersecret work for the British government, he needs a suitable wife—one who would deflect all the attention, and matchmaking mammas, his new title is brings. Of course, the logical solution is a faux engagement, but once love enters the equation, logic has nothing to do with anything. The second installment of Kramer’s deliciously clever “Impossible Bachelors” series rewards readers with a simply irresistible combination of scintillating wit and sizzling sensual romance. --John Charles

clever storyline, but. .
By Duchess of Mabank
Ok, I really have a love-hate relationship with this book. The author shows massive potential, and I gobbled up the first book, When Harry Met Molly. However, this book left me wanting. . . what? Im not sure. It starts out great, then proceeds way to quick.
Our heroine comes face to face with The Duke of Drummond a person who's name she has been using to throw unwanted suitors away thinking it was made up from her wildly imaginative cook and is forced to accept a marriage proposal from him immediately. Unfortunately she believes she is in love with a Russian Prince whom she met at fifteen spent a puppy love week with and who just so happens to have arrived in London as well. Problem? Ten min later her and her "fiance" are making out in a carriage. Wait. What? She's still in love with the Prince right? Didn't she just meet this guy and forced to accept his proposal? While traditionally I hate how romance novelists drag out a story I do still like a basis for the relationship. I also find that when they are starting to warm up to each other the scenes get a little steamy. Im fine with that but what happened to the romance in the end? Storyline, great. Spy aspect very good. Romance? Well. . while you had me intrigued for awhile the ending was a huge upset. You have built these characters up so much that I was sadly disappointed to read you sum up their passion in a few sentences at the end as if the deadline for the editor was approaching or that you were burnt out on the book yourself. I will continue reading your books. I like your plots. I find myself loving your characters I just want my "romance" somewhere in there too.

silly and boring
By Ludmila Melchior-Yahil
The characters behave like immature adolescents, the plot (both supposed mystery and silly romance) is boring, and the writing at the J.H. level (no offense to all gifted teenage writers.) The first book by Ms.Kramer was at least mildly entertaining, this one is formulaic and annoying. We meet the oh so sexy hero in bed with a hot mistress, who will blackmail him with fake pregnancy, which is terribly inconvenient, because by then he's in lust, love and certainly in bed with our heroine whom he met 5 minutes earlier, but hey, he's so sexy, skilled and seductive that how could she resist, right? Oh, and the mistress is a Russian princess, so I guess this explains why she's stupid, spoiled and scheming... Maybe instead of trying to fake historical romance, the author should switch to cartoonish modern chick lit.

I'd Prefer to Give this No Stars, but that isn't an option.
By The Fiction Vixen
Reviewed for: TheRomanceReader.Wordpress.com.
This is what I get for choosing a book based on its title; I guess I mistakenly assumed that the ability to craft an amusing title meant that the author also had to ability to write a good book. Boy was I wrong. I got about 60 pages into this before I finally decided that I couldn't get any further, which sucks because this book had a pretty good premise:
I really like spy novels, so when I saw this at the library I thought I had hit the jackpot: a cute title AND Regency spies! What could go wrong? Apparently, a lot.
First, there is the idea that Poppy likes being a spinster. She and two of her friends have decided that unless they can marry for love they are not going to marry. Okay, that's a nice thought, but in Regency England? I don't buy it. What woman in her right mind would have chosen to stay unmarried in a time when being a wife and mother was the only thing most women could aspire to? Second, which is really a corollary to the first, is that when Poppy is presented with an engagement and her father threatens to cut her off if she doesn't marry Nicholas, she claims to be alright with it. What? In what universe would a well-bred young lady be fine with being left penniless and alone? Hell, that was the main reason for Miss Gwen's decision to become Jane's chaperone in the Pink Carnation series.
Then, there's Nick. We first encounter him being awoken by a Russian princess named Natasha, who has a corgi named Boris (I guess Ms. Kramer is a Rocky and Bulwinkle fan). It seems that Nick has spent the night with Natasha and needs to leave immediately because if he is found there he would be forced to marry her, and marriage is not something he wants. As a matter of fact, it is so not what he wants that he begins to question why he ever stayed with Natasha since he doesn't usually go in for that type of thing. That's when he notices the glass of Brandy and begins to wonder if he's been drugged, which upon asking Natasha, he finds out is her thing. (A Russian princess that likes to date rape guys? Lovely.)
Anyway, Nick doesn't have a very high opinion of women. When he finally meets Poppy, he thinks:
"He'd marry her, ship her off to Seaward Hall, and give her what every woman wanted--babies and the occasional bauble to keep her happy. He'd even bring her to town once a year to satisfy that yearning that every woman seemed to have for socializing" (37).
Right, so all woman must want babies, baubles, and balls. Tell me again why you're good enough for Poppy (who alright isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, turning down 12 proposals in the hopes of marrying a Russian prince (Natasha's brother Sergei), but she still deserves better)?
A few pages later, after proposing to Poppy in front of her friend the Russian prince as well as everyone else at the ball, Nick doesn't hesitate in telling Poppy that she must marry him and that she has no choice in the matter. What?! Is this supposed to be romantic? He even tells her that the only reason he plans to marry her is so that he can get on with his life and collect some monetary award--not that Poppy understands a word he is saying as he's speaking in spy jargon. This is all very ironic as Nick fears becoming involved with the wrong woman, one who would drain his savings (of which he has none). I find it extremely interesting that he is a gold digger that fears gold diggers. Whatever.
Last, there is the fact that everyone but Poppy knows what is going on--Nick's boss maneuvers to get them engaged, going so far as to talk to her father, explaining to him about Nick being a spy. Let me get this straight, Poppy's father is allowed to know that Nick is a spy, but Poppy isn't? In what universe does this make sense? Shouldn't the woman being shanghaied into marriage at least know why she is being shanghaied? I guess not.
It was at the point where Nick manhandles Poppy after telling her that she will marry him no matter what she wants that I stopped reading. There are much better books out there for me to waste my time reading something this offensive.
No Stars.
