Rating: 4.5 Stars

Lucy believes she's been in love with Toby (one of her brother's best friends) since she was eleven years old. Now at the age of nineteen and upon learning he may have plans to become engaged to another woman, she's finally ready to make her move. That's where Jeremy steps in, her brother's closest and best friend of all. Lucy decides to practice her seduction skills on Jeremy, since she figures if she can thaw his icy exterior then she should have no trouble at all with Toby. But one kiss changes everything and both will have to deal with and come to terms with feelings neither of them ever expected...

I really loved this book and thought Lucy was just adorable! She appears a little childish at times, but she matures and grows as the story progresses. She was funny, intelligent, brave, brazen and a bit wild. She's not one to deny her feelings or emotions and she knows, accepts, and goes after what she wants. Jeremy is described as cold but I found him extremely kind, caring, passionate, and maybe a little dark as well. He has some issues from childhood to overcome before they can have their happily ever after, but with Lucy beside him I never had any doubts he'd find his way.

This was Ms. Dare's debut novel as well as being the first in a trilogy, and I'd highly recommend reading this book before the others in this series as each of the stars for the next stories make their first appearances here. With that being said, I thought this was an excellent romance. It was witty, charming, moving, and really just appealed to me in every aspect. The writing and dialogue were great and the characters endearing. The chemistry and desire between this couple is practically palpable too! In the end I found this book an absolute joy to read and look forward to more from this wonderful author =)

Goddess of the Hunt Wanton Dairymaid Trilogy Tessa Dare 9780345506863 Books Reviews

Part of this book is wonderfully written, pithy, and very easy to read. There is a lightness to the writing, without being truly silly, and I found myself smiling a lot. The dialogue was believable -- no jarring contemporary wording (a pet peeve of mine). The heroine was energetic and lovably imperfect, and there was a good cast of secondary characters. I enjoyed the secondary characters almost as much as the h and H. There were some Grade-A love scenes. Then The Big Misunderstanding occurred, and the story lost steam. The plot seemed to have nowhere to go, and The Big Misunderstanding dragged on. I confess I started skimming and had to force myself to slow down. Unfortunately, the resolution, which could have occurred gradually, was a little too quick and too pat. At least we were treated to an epilogue. Even with its failings, I had to rate Goddess of the Hunt 3.75 stars. I'm tempted to go back and re-read the first half.
This book is pretty close to perfect for me. It had every single element of a romance that I look for in my books sexual chemistry, struggle between protagonists, societal burdens, conflicts of the heart. One of Tessa Dare's best and my top 10 favorite ever. Jeremy Trescott is sexy as hell, half way through the book I was so in love with Lucy and Jeremy I practically ravished my own husband. Read this, you will NOT regret it.
4.5 stars. This was Tessa Dare's first book and it's indicative of her wonderful style of writing. This has all the elements of the stories that I loved in Judith McNaught, Johanna Lindsey, and Julie Garwood's works -- a plucky heroine, a brooding hero, who is reluctant to admit his love. There's humor and deep emotions in equal quantities. Secondary characters are fleshed out without losing sight of who the main characters are. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series and finishing Tessa's back list.
I actually read this one out of order, but I am rather glad I did, since I knew that Jeremy and his lovely Lucy would be together in the end. All the travails and misunderstandings and just learning to know each other's hearts was easier to take knowing that in the end true love would prevail. It was a powerful journey and one well worth taking. (One small note, I LOVED the hermitage scene where Jeremy actually checked the fireplace chimney before lighting a fire! Nitpicky maybe, but anyone who has ever tried lighting a fire with a blocked flue would flinch at the idea of someone willy nilly doing that very thing!)
Rating 4.5 Stars
