An Introduction to Pleasure Mistress Matchmaker #1 free read ☆ 9 free download ´ E-book, or Kindle E-pub æ Jess Michaels summary An Introduction to Pleasure Mistress Matchmaker #1 Er the spell of Lysandra’s innocent charms And as they give in to the powerful hunger the last thing Andrew ever expected or wanted forms between them An emotional connection that could carry them well past the training period if only Andrew can open his heart to the possibility of love Product WarningsIncludes training in all kinds of sexual positions and delights as well as an emotional romance May produce swooni. A perfectly ok time pass I think it is erotica than historical There is no relationship whatsoever to speak of which is not a problem if one is looking for heat in a novel I rarely have luck with fallen women as heroines And this one is no exception The hero andrew was a widower and punished himself for his wife s death by isolating himself and rejecting life s enjoyable pursuits Lysandra the heroine came to him through a courtesan who did this sort of matching Neat idea The relationship started uickly and I was grateful for that But the story did not convince me why a recluse like Andrew would change his mind just because he saw Lysandra in the garden I know that falling in love is sometimes a matter of seconds but something else has to happen to convince me that this is than a passing affection They jumped from being complete strangers one a woman fallen on hard times having to sell herself to survive and the other a man who had locked himself away from women and happiness because he lost his wifechild to bed partners very soon and the sexual activities uickly evolved into something rather risue While I find it interesting I did not necessarily want to read about all the different positions and ways to have sex So I am probably just the wrong audience

Can I have an Andrew please it would be preferable if he s the long lost twin brother of Henry Cavill because that s exactly how I pictured himdrool I know it s the wrong era but can you blame me for droolingThis is my very first historical romance putting aside Pride and Prejudices of course It may sound shocking I know being new to the genre I should have begun with something famous that I m sure would have loved like Kathleen E Woodiwiss or Lisa Kleypas who wrote the prime of historical fiction but instead I chose An Introduction to Pleasure Mainly because I couldn t wait to get my hands on it since the first time I read the synopsis and right away chose to pre order it my first pre order YAYFor someone as foreign to this genre to its settings and vocabulary as me I was totally surprised when I found myself falling in love with the book the I read the it was difficult to put it down well except for extreme necessity and I finished it in merly hours The story was well crafted the romance felt genuine and very heart warming the chemistry was sizzling between Lysandra what a beautiful name and Andrew swoon and while they found their happy ending I felt kind of sad to be parted from themNow I m uite sure that the second book will be about the Maruis Weatherfield Miles or so I hope he was very appealing and his story will be one very tempting to read

You know how the review box starts with the uestion What did you think Here s my answer I thought I was pretty darn disappointed that s what I thoughtI didn t initially have high expectations for this book until I remembered the reason it was on my tbr in the first place I ve read one other by Jess Michaels Everything Forbidden and LOVED it and unfortunately this one didn t appeal to me nearly as muchI didn t buy the characters I didn t buy the backstory of either the Hero or heroine I thought the entire thing smacked of wallpaper and the author merely playing lip service to her romance being a historical Crap that makes me sound like a historical romance snob I m not sure exactly what it was about this book that made me feel that way perhaps it was the seamless way the heroine integrated herself both with the belowstairs staff and the ton at the opera The ease with which the Hero talks of his love for his mistress in training The future sister in law who gives the Hero a rah rah speech straight out of a modern chick flick about risking it all for love and how she would be proud to call this demimondaine a friend The Hero s father who does an about face after realizing his son is in love with his mistress and plans to marry her also gives him a rah rah speech and ends by telling him he loves himPffft All of those probably did it To be fair it wasn t a really BAD book it just didn t do much for me It felt like a been there done that version of an oft told story except with lots of sex and a couple of hints of naughty sexy stuffAll in all I d have to agree with my GR friend Lady Wesley who said Nothing special there To that comment I d would add Nothing new either 25 stars
