Eu amo romances de época e amo Marie Force, neste livro que tive o prazer de receber o ARC temos a união dos dois fatores. I love historical romance and I love Marie Force, in this book I had the pleasure of receiving an ARC we have the union of these two factor.



From New York Times bestselling author Marie Force comes a glittering tale of star-crossed romance set amid the lavish mansions and decadent lifestyles of early 20th century Newport, Rhode Island. But even in an age of great fortune, the heart has its own idea of true riches . . .

Wealthy American industrialist Aubrey Nelson has invited the Duke and Duchess of Westbrook to visit his family’s Newport seaside “cottage” for the summer. With his parents’ departure from New York delayed, Aubrey’s mother sends him ahead to oversee preparations for their guests. But when he arrives, he’s surprised to find the house and staff in disarray . . .
With much to do and little time, Aubrey comes to rely on the housekeeper, a lovely young Irish woman named Maeve Brown. And when he also finds himself confiding in Maeve about more personal matters, he tells himself it’s merely their close proximity that draws him to the compassionate, hard-working beauty. Yet when he suspects Maeve is in danger, Aubrey realizes his feelings for her have grown much deeper than they should have. For what will his mother, who dreams of a society match for her son, have to say when she arrives to discover he’s lost his heart to a girl of the working class?

Praise for Duchess by Deception

“Full of flashy wealth and drama…Aubrey and Maeve have great chemistry, the friendships are strong, and the romance is passionate and well developed.”Publishers Weekly


Minhas impressões (My Review)



Deceived by Desire é o segundo livro da série Gilded, desta vez passado na America, mais precisamente em Newport, onde os ricos americanos (novos ricos) tem suas casas de verão. O livro é passado em 1903, início do Século XX e vamos reencontrar Aubrey Nelson, um dos melhores amigos de Derek Eagan, o Duque de Westwood, de Duchess by Deception, Simon Eagan, o primo, quase irmão de Derek, suas esposas Catherine e Madeline, e ainda Justin Enderly. Deceived by Desire is the second book in the Gilded series, this time in America, more precisely in Newport, where the rich Americans (new rich) have their summer homes. The book is set in 1903, early twentieth century and we will meet Aubrey Nelson, one of Derek Eagan's best friends, the Duke of Westwood, by Duchess by Deception, Simon Eagan, Derek's cousin, near brother, his wives Catherine and Madeline, and Justin Enderly.

Quando Aubrey chega em Newport para acompanhar o trabalho dos funcionários no preparo da casa de verão para a chegada o Duque e Duquesa de Westwood, ele descobre uma linda mulher com um pescoço tentador, arrumando a casa, Maeve Brown, a nova governanta da casa. When Aubrey arrives in Newport to accompany the work of the staff preparing the summer house for the arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Westwood, he discovers a beautiful woman with a tempting neck, tidying up the house, Maeve Brown, the new housekeeper.

Maeve é uma linda irlandesa que está fugindo do seu passado e encontrou um trabalho que quer fazer com muita competência. Mas a mãe de Aubrey é uma megera, uma patroa tão má, que ao final do último verão todos os funcionários largaram os cuidados com a casa, e deixaram o trabalho, o emprego, deixando a casa aberta e aos impropérios da natureza, inverno, chuva e animais... Agora ela e alguns poucos funcionários estão tentando arrumar a casa para a chegada da família e de seus visitantes ilustres: o Duque ela Duquesa de Westwood e família. Maeve is a beautiful Irishwoman who is running away from her past and has found a job she wants to do very competently. But Aubrey's mother is such a vixen, such an evil mistress, that at the end of last summer all the staff quit their care of the house, and left their work, their job, leaving their house open and to nature's mischief, winter, rain and animals ... Now she and a few staff are trying to tidy up the house for the arrival of the family and their distinguished visitors: the Duke she Duchess of Westwood and family.

Quando Aubrey chega na casa Maeve pensa que ele é o novo mordomo que está sendo esperado a qualquer momento, ele entra nessa onda, mas por pouco tempo porque aprendeu com seu amigo Derek o quanto pode ser ruim a 'mentira' para um relacionamento. Relacionamento que nem existia ainda mas tamanha a atração de Aubrey or Maeve e a falta de resistência a essa atração ele quer fazer tudo certo. When Aubrey arrives at the house Maeve thinks he is the new butler expected at any moment, he gets into that wave, but briefly because he learned from his friend Derek how bad a lie can be for a relationship. Relationship that don't existed but so much the attraction of Aubrey or Maeve and the lack of resistance to this attraction he wants to make everything right.

Eles começam a trabalhar juntos na casa mas Maeve nao querer se aproximar de Aubrey por causa da diferença de classes e por ela saber o quanto os irlandeses eram ainda mais humilhados na América e por ela ter tido uma decepção enorme com a diferença de classes ainda na Irlanda e tbm por causa de seus meninos passado (aquele do qual está fugindo). Mas seu segredo mais obscuro a seguiu até a América e quando Aubrey descobre porque ela não quer se aproximar mais e entende o motivo de sua ação e fuga ele vê a oportunidade de protegê-la e de estar com ela plenamente, se casando com ela. They start working together at the house but Maeve doesn't want to approach Aubrey because of the class difference and because she knows how much more humiliated the Irish people are in America and she has had a huge disappointment with the class difference still in Ireland and also because of her past boys (the one from which she is running away). But her darkest secret has followed her to America and when Aubrey finds out why she doesn't want to get any closer and understands the reason for her action and her escape he sees the opportunity to protect her and to be with her fully, by marrying her.

Com o casamento o relacionamento de Aubrey e Maeve fica mais forte e o amor é lindo, mas ela não tem ilusão sobre como a sogra (uma filha de Conde inglês) esnobe e maluca vai aceitar o casamento ou como a sociedade de Newport ou mesmo a inglesa vai aceitar o casamento e a nova esposa de Aubrey Nelson. Os amigos, o Duque e a Duquesa e seus familiares e amigos a aceitam e a acolhem e a ajudam mas a vida não é fácil para o novo casal... With marriage Aubrey and Maeve's relationship gets stronger and the love is beautiful, but she has no illusion about how the snobbish, crazy mother-in-law will accept the marriage or as Newport's society or even her. English will accept the marriage and the new wife of Aubrey Nelson. Friends, the Duke and Duchess and their family and friends accept and welcome her and help her but life is not easy for the new couple ...

Um livro muito bom, mas o final, antes do epílogo foi muito rápido, acho que precisava de mais um capítulo antes do epílogo. Marie Force pode e deve continuar escrevendo romances de época, já quero a estória de Justin Enderly. A very good book, but the ending before the epilogue was very quick, I think I needed another chapter before the epilogue. Marie Force can and should continue writing historical romance novels, I already want the story of Justin Enderly.
