Manhattan, 1886

Juliet Foster has just become the wealthiest spinster in town. Her domineering and thoroughly unpleasant father has died and left her millions. She's free to be her own woman and seek a life of adventure.

David Winslow, Marquess of Derrington, is in search of a wife who can break the Winslow Curse. Every second-generation heir inherits a restless, defiant nature that can only be tamed by a mate as independent and rebellious as himself.

Miss Juliet Foster is perfect—and eager for seduction. But when he wants more than a few nights of passion, Juliet runs like the devil's on her heels. Can the marquess convince her that marriage isn't a trap, but the greatest freedom of all?

Miss Foster Folly edition by Alice Gaines Romance eBooks

What an enjoyable read! This is my second Alice Gaines book...after finishing Captain and Countess, I had to read another of her novels. I wish their were more historical romances from her. She writes them so well. I love how she incorporates humor, passion and intelligence in her characters. The chemistry between not only the main characters but also the secondary characters makes for a very satisfying story. They are so multidimensional and I feel as though I got to know them all so well. Then there's the heat and steamy encounters between hero and heroine....the pages just sizzle. I will most definitely be looking for more from this author in the future!

Miss Foster Folly edition by Alice Gaines Romance eBooks Reviews


Visited Alice at her blog where I read excerpts of her books - I love her style, sharp and witty. Miss Foster's Folly is extremely entertaining and light-hearted. Looking forward to future works from Alice.
I love the setting of this story in the Victorian period. Somehow I'm stuck with the belief that one day in the 1800s, the world changed overnight from the Regency's pastoral panoramas of Pemberley to the choleric, soot-choked slums of Oliver Twist. But the story defies convention, just like its heroine does, in a very fresh, engaging way. As original as this heroine is, she makes you recognize and sympathize.
Alice takes the Victorian romance to the next level when she sets a newly-rich spinster loose on the unsuspecting world of men. It will be the task of one of them to show her that yes, there really is such a thing as true love. But how will he do that when all the money's on _her_ side? Can love really conquer all? A worthy addition to any romance reader's collection.
Miss Foster's Folly is a rolicking trip accross the Atlantic through the English countryside. Along the way, the reader meets a gaggle of quirky noblemen and women, including David's grandmother, Lady Harriet Winslow, the Dowager Marchioness of Derrington, who redefines the meaning of a little old lady.

In addition to Lady Derrington stealing the show, Juliet herself is no romantic, determined to get her way and spoil the Marquis' fun. One of my favorite scenes is when Juliet decides to show off her knowledge of orchid anatomy while on a tour of a conservatory.

Miss Foster's Folly is vintage Alice Gaines, totally Victorian, and a hilarious, sexy read that will have you laughing your butt off while reaching for your marquis or marchioness.
Miss Foster's Folly by Alice Gaines is truly a delightful and passionate historical romance! Set in the beginning in Manhattan Island New York, 1886 and through the travels to London, heroine Juliet Foster becomes a wealthy spinster at age 32 at the passing of her Father. Her father Gerald Foster was an intolerable man, with a nasty disposition. Juliet is determined that she would never marry after seeing her father's misery, anger and emotional neglect to his children after the passing of their mother. She never wants to experience losing as he had. She does so want to experience passion. Her plans are to pass as a widow with her friend, Millicent Rhodes and experience lovers throughout England and beyond. But has a minor inconvenience of needing her virginity broken! That's where the hero David Winslow, Marquess of Derrington, Derry, comes in. She's thrilled upon meeting him and responds so passionately to his touch. Juliet is a very independent heroine and strong too in her endeavors. She's very determined to never marry.

David Winslow, Marquess of Derrington, often called Derry, has different plans for Juliet when she blurts out her need to him! He's determined to break the Winslow Curse. As cited in the book, 'Every second generation heir inherits a restless, defiant nature that can only be tamed by a wife as independent and rebellious as he is'. Juliet fits this perfectly. Winslow men who found the "cure" enjoyed long and joyful marriages. Derry has loved and respected his grandfather Hugh and grandmother, Harry, and determined to break this curse. (You will so laugh at the visit from his grandmother Harry). Derry is determined to marry before doing the deed, but Juliet won't have it! With Juliet's stubbornness and escaping to find someone else to do the deed, Derry chases her along and gives in, in hopes she would change her mind and fall in love with him.

At times I laughed out loud, and often smiled reading MISS FOSTER'S FOLLY by Alice Gaines. Juliet is resolved to seduce and drive him to distraction so that he doesn't ask for her hand in marriage. There's some fun quirks between them, such as he can only ask her once a day to marry him. Derry was so good to her, a very ideal hero without being overly alpha! You could feel them both falling in love as the story progressed, but no over unraveling or over analyzing it in the book. It moves along as a fast pace and adventurous. As a full novel in ebook, nothing is lacking with building the relationship with Juliet and Derry. The author gives us a chase between them that each time becomes more intense and passionate then the last. Knowing and understanding more about the Winslow Curse would of made it more important in the story. He does recite a letter from his grandmother, that gives a little insight and requirements of his wife, to his pursuit because of the curse. Its Derry goal, but he falls for her adventurous and fun qualities quite early and throughout the book. It's a totally 'good feel' read, one that will make the reader feel that cheer that the hero and heroine posses. Long after reading this book, the reader will recall scenes and smile in remembrance.

It would be a awesome to re-visit Juliet and Derry with Juliet's friend, Millicent Rhodes, to read more about her own HEA (Happily Ever After). Her background as an orphan with no family, and having been a charity case at Miss Sedgewick's Academy for Young Ladies, which Juliet also attended, is interesting. Would be great to find out more about her! But either way I so look forward to more from this author Alice Gaines!
Ms Gains brings her own spin on a woman looking for love and willing to take charge of her libido. Miss Foster proves to a very endearing heroine in search of more than just a good time. She's not willing to settle for anything less the total fulfillment. I say - you go girl.
These characters draw you in and I loved the heroines independence. The relationship between the hero and her was delightful and I also enjoyed the secondary characters. Good read!
What an enjoyable read! This is my second Alice Gaines book...after finishing Captain and Countess, I had to read another of her novels. I wish their were more historical romances from her.
