Lady Philippa Knolles has loved Captain Thomas “Dash” Dashwell since he first stole a kiss from her on a smuggler’s beach near Hastings. Now after what seems like a lifetime of waiting, Pippin is offered a chance to renew her scandalous affair with Dash. But the man from that first heady kiss and the man she rediscovers all these years later are hardly the same. Tucked away in the back of her closet is a red dress, the one she wore long ago to win his heart . . . . Could it have enough memories left inside it to rekindle a passion she’s never forgotten?
I just finished reading Tally’s book and I’m very interested in reading this book so I thought I’d give everyone a heads up for all of the fans of the Bachelor Chronicles series by Elizabeth Boyle. This book comes out next week and I seriously can’t wait because I want to read it! I’m curious to see how Ms. Boyle wrote Pippin’s happy ending. What happened to the guy from Confessions of a Black Gown? Where did Dash go to all these years that they’ve been apart? What kind of trouble is Felicity, Tally and Pippin going to get into?
I’m happy that we don’t have this long drawn out wait, soon guys, soon we’ll be able to read Pippin’s story. Woo hoo!
This book is available on April 28, 2009 from Avon. You can pre-order it here.
First book is already out, right? Thats CONFESSION OF A BLACK GOWN for the first book right? I hope to get soon then. I love historical romances and love her books so I’m excited about this series since I heard about it! Thanks for all the teasing!! LOL
Well, I’ve come to find out that Elizabeth Boyle is a wily writer because most of her books intertwine with each other (recurring characters and all) and MEMOIRS is the third book in The Bachelor Chronicles series.
Here’s the reading order:
LOVE LETTERS FROM A DUKE
CONFESSIONS OF A BLACK GOWN
MEMOIRS OF A SCANDALOUS RED DRESS
Hope that helps! =)
Has anyone read the Memoir chapters posted on the HarperCollins site? I am so disappointed. I am dying to discuss this but don’t know if I can say anythings spoilerish even though the chapters are posted.
