Two Dukes are Better Than One

This is a ménage story. The two Dukes Stone and Huxley were supposed to be enemies. They were always fighting but in truth they were the best of friends. They shared their women. Neither were anxious to get married. Then along came Sophia. Stone wanted to marry her because she was willing to be adventurous during love making. Stone marries Sophia. This book contains a lot of sex. There are many graphic scenes with the three of them. The book was well written and a fast read. I will definitely read more books by this author.

I chose to write this review, negative comments and all, despite the publisher’s request for only positive reviews.

AT-A-GLANCE: A quick, enjoyable read about two men and a woman falling into a polyamorous-ish relationship in 19th century England. Good sex, minimal plot.

CONTENT WARNINGS: sexism from side characters

THOUGHTS: The book is probably 20% plot, 80% erotica. The plot portion is not gripping and seems like a half-assed attempt at making this a romance rather than straight erotica; it doesn’t work. There is little to no believable romance in this book. Stone’s sudden obsession with Sophia is clearly a sexual thing based on her virginity and interest in an erotic book written in the 17th century; I’m willing to bet Stone would lose interest in her quickly after the novel finishes. Huxley’s obsession with her is said to have gone on for a few years, but readers are never really shown that; interactions with him are more of the same “man claiming virgin woman” tone that interactions with Stone have.

This book is all about sex — which is fine, nothing wrong with some well-written erotica — but I wouldn’t shelve this as a romance. With a bit more work, this could have been a romance, and one that I would have been pleased to read and recommend to friends with polyamorous interests. There were hints at decent polyamory representation, but they ultimately fell flat. Where emotions could have been expressed and developed, sex took over. (There wasn’t even anything to suggest Stone and Huxley cared for each other, which actually annoyed me. The book seemed to go out of its way to remind readers that they fought constantly.) But again, erotica is fine! I was just disappointed by what this could have been.

I recommend this book if you’re looking for heterosexual erotica. I do not recommend it if you’re looking for romance.

I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I thought this was a hot read, but also a bit fun and sweet at some points. Sophia is not the typical debutante, she is interested in pshycic abilities and the possibility of telling the future and communicating with ghosts, which makes her strange in the eyes of society. At the same time she is also curious, especially about the relationship between men and women. Finding a book that piques her interest in this subject doesn't lessen her curiosity, and since she isn't a timid person, she has no qualms talking about the book when pressured by a hansome duke.

The two men, Huxley and Stone, act as enemies because of a familiyfeud, but are actually good friends, sharing their female conquests. They both have an interest in Sophia after meeting her and agree to try persuade her into being with both of them. She is not hard to persuade when she finally realizes what is going on.

I think the author has managed to give Sophia an innocent vibe that is not too much and a curiosity that would be normal for a female of that time, since so many subjects are taboo for them. Huxley and Stone are opposites in both looks and personality, complementing each other.

The storyline is simple and have some fun moments when the confused girl is courted by both men she is attracted to. The clairvoyance and tarotcards aren't really necessary in the story, but it is a nice touch to build up Sophia's character and the part about Huxley's sister gives plausable reason as to why he hasn't courted Sophia before. Adding a little danger and mystery to the mix also gave the story something more than just sex. The sex itself is not hardcore in anyway, but truly daring for a girl from that time and the author also shows several ways to have fun without actual intercourse, giving some variety to the scenes.

All in all, this was a book I enjoyed reading!

Deliciously decadent. I could not put down this new recency erotica from Lorna James. The introduction of two heroes was new, and the over arching plot of the spiritual and supernatural made it stand out in a sea of recency romances. I just wish a little more time had been spent on the ending. It felt rushed. I would have read another 100 pages.

I promised a fair and honest review in exchange for this ARC.....and as soon as my breathing returns to normal I will give it! Short and directly to the hot point. Mercy!! I am only sorry that it was so brief! If your sensibilities can handle scorching fantasies, this is for you.

I read a copy of this book obtained from the publisher from a NetGalley in exchange for a fair review. This book is a novella by Lorna James and while I thought the story had some ideas and plot points the would have been better served by a longer book it does deliver everything promised.... Two hot Dukes, a lusty Virgin and some very steamy MMF scenes.

Look, sometimes you just want to read a fun trifle of a romance. And this book delivers. Completely low on angst and high on fun. Lady Sophia Hodges is a bit of a wallflower and loves reading. At the beginning she thinks, "Why didn't they throw library parties, where everyone wore comfortable clothes and read books?" lol. This is my kind of heroine. Anyways, she gets her hands on a book that seems really boring called The Convent Life Chronicles---but it's really Victorian-age Erotica where a dude disguises himself as a nun, breaks into the convent, and basically has sex with everyone. Reading this book gives Sophia ideas...OF COURSE.

Anyways, 2 dukes: Cromwell & Huxley seem to hate each other but really love to share women, so Cromwell offers for her hand in marriage but they all fool around together. There's also a pretty delightful sub-plot about tarot cards and fortune tellers and the Victorian belief about the occult. HONESTLY, look at that cover. What you see is exactly what you're going to get and if that's what you're in the mood for, pick it up and give it a read.

MY ONLY WARNING: This is honestly more like a novella than a novel. It is SHORT. $6.99 seems like it's way too much for how long this book is...

I received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review. The relationship between Sophie, Stone and Huxley is rather unconventional for their time but it is very erotic. Sophie buys a manuscript that is an erotic writing describing sexual acts and she wishes to explore these different situations. Loved the book and would highly recommend it if you are a fan of erotic writings.

3.5 stars
On the surface, Cromwell Stone, Duke of Kendal and Huxley Brigmore, Duke of Bedford loathe each other. However, only a trusted few knew that the passion they shared was deeper and more forbidden not only did they go through women like they changed their cravats, they did it together.
Lady Sophia Hodges’ obsession with tarot cards and the spirit world would have labelled her as odd, if not for the fact the Queen shares her interest. She ‘s found an erotic manuscript that she's been reading in secret & it’s given her such unnatural curiosities. Then finds herself engaged to Stone but she’s been in love with Huxley ever since he chased off a gang of ruffians who had been about to accost her. Now, she was going to marry his arch enemy, Stone, and be hated by default.
Only it seems both men are intent on pursuing her and fulfilling every naughty fantasy a well-bred virgin shouldn't even be having.
This is a sizzling read & very erotic, much of the novella revolves around Stone & Huxley seducing Sophia. There is a side plot that concerns them but although this had the potential to add tension & mystery to the story it fell short. The characters were to some extent likeable but I didn’t feel they connected with each other & I was left wondering if they loved each other or if it was just about the sex as there was very little romance. It was a quick erotic read.

I loved this saucy historical romance. Two Dukes definitely are better than one.

I wasn't sure once I started this book if I would like it since it involved tarot cards and such. It turned out to be a good book. The supernatural aspect of it wasn't overwhelming. Good storyline.

This was a very steamy read and the first book of its kind I have ever read. I really enjoyed this book for many reasons. It is not like a typical historical romance because there are two dukes in the relationship and also the occult element. Tarot cards and tea leaf readings are so fascinating.

The combination of the chemistry between the trio and the occult made this a very enjoyable read.

This is a fun book which revolves around some familiar but well-loved tropes, twisting them together into a sexy romp.

Two Dukes Are Better Than One...Lorna James

I voluntarily received an arc of this book via NetGalley for a fair and honest review. Lady Sophia Hodges’ father was pretty sure he would never marry her off. By accident, Sophia managed to get herself an erotic manuscript and she was enthralled by the thought of two men with one woman. Under threat of her father finding out she had such a manuscript, Cromwell Stone, Duke Of Kendal learns about Sophia’s interest and decides that a virgin debutante would be perfect for him, and his friend Huxley. Stone and Huxley had always shared women, but Huxley wanted Stone to stay away from the Lady Sophia. Sophia had a crush on Huxley Brigmore, the Duke Of Bedford. Much to her chagrin, her father was busy arranging a marriage, to a Duke, for Sophia but it was the wrong Duke...Cromwell Stone. Everyone thought the two Dukes had been mortal enemies, little did they know, they were the best of friends. Hurley’s future had been foretold to him by Sophia’s mother. He was told he could not marry Sophia...that it would lead to his death. Unbeknownst to Huxley, his best friend would be marrying the sweet Sophia. When Stone informed Huxley that Sophia was to wed, he left out the name of her husband to be. But Stone convinced Huxley that is is they who should introduce Sophia to the carnal pleasures she had only read about, before she is to wed. I loved this book. It was funny, sexy and a nice change from modern erotica. This is a new author for me but I will be scooping up her books soon.

THIS BOOK DELIVERS! Follow the journey of this love triangle and you wont want the ride to end PUN INTENDED

Hot in all the right places. Good solid writing. Overall it was a great historical

Wished it was longer so really feel for this story. I like the whole paranormal aspects and the M/F/M relationship. With two best friends Huxley Brigmore, Duke of Bedford and Cromwell Stone, Duke of Kendal are always feuding but over little things, their family’s were at ‘war’ reason will be much later and it a whopper of a secret. But thei love their friendship but they love to share women more.
Lady’s Sophia Hodges a very simple lady being raised by a Mother that taught her the gift of Tarot cards and other gifts of being a sensitive, and a father that loved his wife and after she passed his love of gambling and he treated Sophie like a nuisance. Until Sophie talked her dad into buying her a book with will changer her life and make her curious about something, it wasn’t what her dad thought it was. Sophie fell in love for Huxley when he saved her but something her mother said to him made him aloof with Sophie but he will always hold her heart even if Stone wants her for himself after discovering her book she has. Her heart wants one but her body wants the other, so she’s fighting her self. Her father wants the money. Stone wants the knowing lusty virgin and Huxley would love to have Sophie anyway he can.

This was a sweet and sexy quick mfm read. No mm interaction. Definitely light hearted and steamy, personally could have read this with a couple hundred more pages. I enjoyed both H's with their banter and she was just a sweet uncomplicated odd ball.

This is a fast-paced steamy historical read. Stone and Huxley are supposed to be enemies but the truth is the are best friends. Sophia’s father has gambled away their lively hood and he arrangers a marriage between her and Stone unfortunately she is in love with Huxley his supposed enemy. What will happen when she learns the truth and what they have planned for her. This read is fun with a great story line and steamy sex. I was hooked from beginning to end. I loved it!

This historical fiction book is filled with friendship, romance, and steamy sex. Sophia is curious young women who is seeking adventure. Her sexual adventurous side is encouraged by two enemies, Huxley and Stone, These two sexy Dukes both love Sophia and want her to love them back. This story will have you turning the pages to see if love conquers all.

From Page 1 of this story, you are drawn into perspective of the quiet, quirky, other-worldly Sophia. Marginalized by her peers for claiming a meager skill at reading Tarot cards, Sophia is "nearing spinsterhood" and, though in love, despairs that she will ever have the happy match she wants. The story follows Sophia, armed with a seemingly-innocent book that has started her on a path of debauchery and, ultimately, a fulfilling relationship the likes of which she never knew was possible.

Though this story is about a kind of relationship that I don't personally ascribe to, I found myself liking the characters very much and being happy for their happiness. The romance of this book was off-the-charts in terms of quality and quantity.

What I was missing from this story was more depth to the mystery following the main trio, however. The culmination of the threat to their reputations and relationships was so quick and dry that I almost feel the book would have been better without it. The story line of the three main characters learning how to make their relationships work would have been good enough on its own.

Pretty good. We don't really carry a lot of erotica at our library, which is why I said we probably wouldn't purchase it, but this one was fine. The ending was a bit rushed, but the characters developed well.

Fantastic read. I could not put it down. This is my first book by Lorna James but it will not be my last. I was provided a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

Talk about erotic storytelling! Sophia buys a book that she thinks is based on religion, then discovers that it's actually a very erotic story. Being a virgin, she doesn't understand all that she reads. After bumping into Cromwell Stone at a party, and letting it slip out about the book, he convinces her to tell him a little about it. Although for the life of me, I can't understand why she would trust him enough to confide this secret. After hearing about the erotic adventures in the story, he realizes that she may be the perfect companion to him and his best friend/enemy, Huxley. Add into the mix a little tarot card reading, and spirits. I enjoyed the love, hate relationship between the two men. Sophia falls for the two men, and thus begins the smoking hot, seduction. Although I felt the end was a little rushed, and could have been explored more, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Looking forward to more from this author.

This was a very well done historical ménage to romance, very sexy and burning hot!!!

I received a copy from NetGalley; this is my honest review.
Short erotic menage.
There is nothing to suggest the story is either Victorian nor historical.
Fun read with a bit of paranormal and mystery.
Great sex scenes.
Don't miss out! Buy the book.

Two Dukes are Better than One
Lorna James
4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Interesting tale of historical romance intermixed with psychic events. Sophia is a young inexperienced woman who read an inappropriate book. And since she read that book she can’t stop thinking about the activities in it. She has a long standing crush on Huxley but he doesn’t appear to feel the same. Then one night she met Stone and started to have inappropriate thoughts about him.
Stone has finally found the woman he wants to marry. She is an innocent virgin but has lots of carnal desires. She seems to be the perfect woman to spend the rest of his life with and someone he can still share with his best friend/enemy Huxley.
This was a pretty humorous historical romance. Definitely not the typical one.
I enjoyed reading this and look forward to more by this author.
Thanks NetGalley for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

This was a fun weekend read! A definite guilty pleasure.

This is a ménage story. The two Dukes Stone and Huxley were supposed to be enemies. They were always fighting but in truth they were the best of friends. They shared everything even their women. This book contains a lot of sex. There are many graphic scenes with the three of them.

Wow awesome book! I loved both Stone and Huxley! I would not have been able to choose between the two. The chemistry was hot and I enjoyed the mystery as well!

This book is, at a glance, is exactly what you think it would be. It's all about sex. There really wasn't much more than a plot- other than the characters getting it on. I liked the story but I wish there would have been as much going on outside the bedroom as there was going on inside it.
If you are looking for a good erotica book than this is the perfect book for you! Overall, I enjoyed the story.

Sophia is a lady in the 1700's. She is into tarot reading and books, things that ladies are discouraged from doing. Stone and Huxley are Dukes and friends. They also like to fight and share women. A steamy, menage historical romance. I really enjoyed reading this book.

I received an arc from netgalley and am leaving my review.

Cromwell & Huxley seem to hate each other but really love to share women, so Cromwell offers for her hand in marriage but they all fool around together. Lady Sophia Hodges is a bit of a wallflower and loves reading. She gets her hands on a book that seems really boring called The Convent Life Chronicles---but it's really Victorian-age Erotica where a dude disguises himself as a nun, breaks into the convent, and basically has sex with everyone.
The storyline is simple and has some fun moments when the confused girl is courted by both men she is attracted to. The clairvoyance and tarot cards aren't really necessary for the story. The sex itself is not hardcore in anyway.

A delicious historical romance that features two dukes interested in the same lady and their road to sharing one another. The author did a great job of creating distinct dukes, with the rougher skeptic Cromwell Stone opposed with his gentler best friend Huxley Brigmore. It's easy for readers to fall for both men quickly. I also really liked the author's use of seance readings and tarot cards as a thread throughout the book; it was very obvious she had a lot of knowledge about tarot card meanings and their contributions to the story helped to move the plot forward as well as establish some mystery. The erotic scenes throughout the book were great-lots of sexual tension (and release), laugh-out-loud moments between Stone and Brigmore, and delicious threesome scenes in the latter half of the book. I will be looking for more from this author!

I really enjoyed this erotic historical MFM Romance. I loved the main character and thought she was my kind of girl! I love how Lady Sophia says “Why don’t they throw library parties where everybody reads books and wears comfy clothes!” I mean, I think I am in love.
I am also in love with the two male main characters of this story as well. This was more of a novella than a full story and that’s great with me, the kind of girl that likes to ‘hit it and quit it’!
I wish this book was a little longer though so that this fantastic characters would have a bit more depth. There also was this enjoyable mystery subplot that made this really fun. Overall, I highly recommend this steamy read especially if your looking for something a little “freaky, freaky”!

Well written book with great storyline and plot. A sweet book that has great romance. The story is true to it's time period and the language is also. I like when an author has made research about the time period they want to write the story in.

There is drama, family issues, passion, emotions and some twists. Instant attraction. Hot scenes.

Nice chemistry and passion. I like the main characters and how they develop. The story flows nicely and it is very captivating from first to last chapter. The author has delivered a story that is worth the read!

I voluntarily reviewed this Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

This was a fun read, many twists that kept the book entertaining. The SEX WAS AMAZING. Will look for this author and look forward to reading more from her.

such an erotic read and one i'll have to keep my eyes out for more books

This was a breezy erotic novella but I wished it was a little longer to flesh out the characters more. I liked Sophia’s interest i tarot and the supernatural that gave depth to the plot.

I received a free copy of Two Dykes are Better Than One in exchange for an honest review. The cover and title of the book was intriguing. This book actually had a plot with a story. Overall, it was a quick and easy read, and I would recommend it to friends and family.

To say I haven't read erotica in a long time and this is my first one back into the genre, it was gooood. The scenes were great but I just wish there was more to the actual plot, like the ending for instance. Still a brilliant book nonetheless!

I enjoyed this book. I found the characters, story and historical erotica a great escape and quick read. I am looking forward to reading other books from this author.

While looking for an easy sexy read involving MFM I decided to give this book a try. It sounded like fun and I was intrigued to see how one would write this genre in an historical era.

It was a fast read and there were some very hot scenes but for me the part that caught my interest is the interaction between Cromwell Stone and Huxley Brigmore. Trying to figure these two out occupied my thinking throughout the whole book.

Lady Sophia was a unique character and at times she appeared to be naive to the times she lived in. The introduction of the two men wanting her and how they kept pressing her to new experiences was handled with finesse.

I would of liked the plot a little more developed but it was enough to hold my interest.

Lady Sophia Hodges is different from other young ladies of the ton. In Two Dukes are Better Than One, not only does she have a little of her mother’s psychic gift, but she has an unusual taste in reading materials.

Thinking because of her interest in the occult means she will never marry, she obtains a manuscript which she believes is about life in a convent. It is, not the typical convent life which is described, however.

Awaiting a rendezvous with a widow at a ton party, The Duke of Kendall, Cromwell Stone, accidentally finds himself in the library. He is then surprised when a young woman comes into the room as well.

Told that the room was haunted, Sophia tries to make contact with the spirits within. Thinking that the spirit is that of her mother, she apologizes for reading the raunchy manuscript.

Flustered at meeting the Duke, she has no defense against his interrogation. She tells him about the manuscript. And how she was excited about the section where a nun is taken by two men at the same time.

Kendall knows immediately that this woman must be his wife. Having for years kept up the pretense of a feud between himself and Huxley Brigmore, Duke of Bedford, Kendall has instead been sharing mistresses with Bedford.

Shocking But So Enticing

This is a certainly one of the steamiest reads I’ve had in a long time. If my kindle didn’t explode into flame.

At first blush, one would think that this would be a coercion situation. But the author, Lorna James, has masterfully written all of the characters ensuring that nothing is done without the utmost pleasure and consent.

If you have some wrinkles and some particularly challenging laundry, this will certainly steam them out. It is an extremely well-written book without being vulgar in the slightest even given the content.

Reviewed for LnkToMi iRead in response to a complimentary copy of the book provided by the publisher in hopes of an honest review.

Short, sexy read! I thoroughly enjoyed this historical romp with added menage. I was expecting a pretty straightforward story mostly involving sex but was also pleasantly surprised by some added mystery and intrigue with the supernatural. This book was a lot of fun.

I received this book from netgalley.com to read and review. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I love historical fiction and the twist of this genre was very enjoyable. The characters of Sophia, Stone, and Huxley were compelling and strong. This was the first book I've read by Lorna James and will not be my last. I loved the development of the relationship between these three characters. The love between them was very realistic and true. I hope to read more about these three. It could easily be made into a sequel.

Well written and fun from the get go. The role of the two dukes actually feels real, and Lorna James has done a good job in making the plot believable. This really helps make the romantic even erotic moments enjoyable and satisfying.

New to this genre of fiction and did not know what to expect. I felt the story moved too fast in some area and left me hanging in others. I look forward to reading more from this author

Hot historical ménage romance.
Humorous imagery by talk, with a historically seducing story.
You won't stop reading until the end.
So enjoyable.

A very enjoyable read, although the ending seems kind of abrupt. I had never read a romance/erotica novel where there were two men and one woman and overall I felt like this book was a good introduction to that theme.

This is the first I've read from Lorna James. It's a MFM menage between 2 dukes who publicly appear to be enemies but in actuality are friends who like to share their women. The female character is Lady Sophia who has been in love with Huxley for quite some time. Little did she know that Huxley has always been interested in Sophia but felt he could not act on his feelings. When Cromwell stumbles upon Sophia, he decides that he has to have her. There's definitely a lot of heat and intrigue going on between the characters. I did find the supernatural tones that were peppered into the story a bit distracting though. Apparently Sophia's mother had some kind of gift of sight or connection with those from beyond along with being able to read tarot cards. Because of this Sophia believes in these things as well. If you're interested in tarot cards along with everything else then it might interest you, otherwise it seemed a bit much. Sophia puts so much stock in the cards it takes away from just enjoying reading about the budding relationship that is going on with the two dukes.
I received a free copy of the book in exchange for my honest opinion.

This is an Erotica regency romance involving a ménage relationship. It is full of graphic sex scenes between the Sophia and her two men Huxley and Stone. This was an easy and steamy story filled with humor and fun moments as well as some serious times and a bit of mystery. I realize that this is a novella, but the story felt a bit rushed and more pages dealing with background and period details would have added greatly to the story line. The historical time frame was a bit wrong in this story and loosely seemed to adhere to the time-period. Overall, I enjoyed the story and look forward to reading more from Lorna James.
I was gifted an advanced copy of this story by NetGalley for my honest review.

As a fan of historical romances and of things metaphysical and spiritual, I have to say this book really whetted my appetite for both topics. It was a wonderful blend of both, not to mention the steamy happenings between Sophia, Stone, and Huxley. I enjoyed this book very much and I look forward to reading more from this author. I voluntarily read this book via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion.

This book is set in an old setting making it that much more scandalous to read. She goes from being shy and not underatanding much of anything to an adventerous being with a love for 2 men. I love the mystery thrown into the mix too.

❤️❤️❤️❤️
💋💋💋💋💋
This is a very hot , active And sexual book the first of this genre for me.A definite eye opener
However that’s not to say that it wasn’t good , the story and the writing were very good and it does keep you turning the pages.
The characters had depth and the different personalities all jelled really well .
There is no violence in this book, and the sex scenes were written tastefully. All in all I quite enjoyed the trip and would think about reading another from this author

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and chose to submit a review

Lady Sophia Hodges’ obsession with tarot cards and the spirit world would have labeled her as odd, if not for the fact the Queen shares her interest. While searching for a connection with her dead mother, she narrowly avoids a scandal with Cromwell Stone. She blames that erotic manuscript she's been reading in secret for giving her such unnatural curiosities. When Sophia is powerless to stop her father from gambling away their livelihood, and even less able to stop him from arranging a marriage to Stone, she consults her tea leaves and sees a future life with passion and other confusing portents. The book is amazing. When I started reading I couldn't put it down.Keep up the great work.

This was a quick and dirty read. The journey was fabulous and I was happy with the chemistry between the characters.

Very quick read, I liked the story line, although I wish it had been a longer story with more conflict between the dukes and Lady Sophia before everything works out.

This review is based on a galley copy from netgalley, courtesy of the publisher. All opinions are my own.

This was a decent book to pass the time with. The story is smooth flowing, there are moments of witty dialogue and I enjoyed the way both Dukes encouraged Sophia to explore her sexuality with them separately before engaging her together.

I will say there was an element of the paranormal woven throughout this story as well that may turn off readers who aren't into that sort of thing, but on the whole I felt it added to the story rather than distract from it. I also enjoyed the way nothing was "wasted" in this story - meaning every character mentioned was mentioned for a reason.

My one complaint is that I wish it had been longer, and had addressed one glaring question - what does the future hold for these relationships? Obviously her husband is going to want an heir and a spare to secure the line, so where does that leave the other partner? Does he find someone else to share? Does their relationship continue after she conceives? Does she ever conceive or is she unable to? These were the questions I most wanted answers to (but that's just me).

On the whole I do believe this story may appeal to those who enjoy the more erotic historical novels.

DISCLAIMER: I received a complimentary copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review. This has not affected my review in any way. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are 100% my own.

Well, the title and cover of this one was what caught my eye. Are Two Dukes better than One? Well, in this book it seems so. Sophia is a young debutante, who has to marry to help her father overcome all the gambling debts he has made. But when Huxley, the man she quietly adores from afar refuses to marry her because of the oath he made to Sophia's late mother, she is forced to marry Stone, Huxley's arch nemesis.
What Sophia doesn't know is that Stone and Huxley are in fact no enemies at all. They share their women, but in the 19th century there is frowned upon these kind of relationships. Therefore they appear to be enemies. When Stone realizes Huxley is in love with Sophia, but can't marry her, he offers to marry her. This way they can both enjoy her. But in order to prepare her for this threesome, they agree to both seduce her before the marriage bed. Lorna shows us many ways of seduction, so beware of melting panties. In all: Two Dukes are definitely better than One Duke. Four out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.

I enjoyed this erotic novel and the storyline was quite believable. If you're looking for something steamy and naughty, I recommend this book

Sophia has an interest in the occult and an erotic manuscript with an innocuous title. This brings her to the notice of Stone, who offers to marry her. The problem is, according to Society he is at odds with Huxley, the man that Sophia actually desires. Little does she know that they actually share everything, even their women.

Sophia is a fun character, and her innocent curiosity is amusingly endearing. Stone and Huxley are supposed to be incredibly handsome and sexy, but I didn't find them too different from the standard dukes of Regency romance novels other than their propensity to share a lover at the same time. The sex is incredibly hot and well done, and adds to the relationship between the three of them.

I really enjoyed the steamy sex scenes. I totally recommend this book. Thanks to Netgalley, for this free copy. My opinion is my own.

Fun regency romance with a little bit of a 'supernatural' plot to keep the story going. I did wish it was a bit longer so I could get to know the characters better, but all in all a good quick read.

Historical erotic romance. I loved it! Lady Sophia is a virginal member of society. Her father gambled all their money away so he found Lord Stone who will marry her and pay her father's debts. She has been in love with the Lord's best friend, Lord Huxley for a long time. These friends have been known to share a lot of things, especially women. Lady Sophia found a book that describes the pleasures of the flesh. The Lord's Stone and Huxley would like to show her these things themselves . THIS is erotica at it's best. I received this book from Net Galley for an honest review.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Sophia is a nobles daughter who doesn't have any marriage prospects. Shes considered wierd by the ton; She's into the occult (tarot cards, ghosts, spirits). Niether she or her father believe she will marry so her father buys her a book about a nunnery, which actually turns out to be a dirty book. This book inadvertently leads to a marriage proposal from Duke. Meanwhile both her fiance and his friend (another Duke) set out to tame Sophia so she's amiable to both their advances.

Overall the book was fairly hot and steamy. There was a lot of love scenes. The book isn't very long but it's well written and a unique menage. Well worth the read.
