The Perfect Kiss by Anne Gracie
Time: 6:36 AM

Happy the man whose wish and care a few paternal acres bound, content to breathe his native air in his own ground.
Alexander Pope

First appearance deceives many.
Ovid

A sweet disorder in the dress kindles in clothes a wantoness.
Robert Herrick

At times it is folly to hasten;at other times, to delay.The wise do everything in its proper time.
Ovid

Go to your bossom; Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know.
William Shakespeare

The desire of a man is for the woman, but the desire of the woman is for the desire of the man.
Madame De Stael

The voice of the conscience is so delicate that it is easy to stifle it; but it is also so clear that it is impossible to mistake it.
Madame De Stael

For they conquer who they believe they can.
John Dryden

What is a kiss?Wht this, as some approve: The sure sweet cement, glue, and lime of love.
Robert Herrick

Talking one's sorrows often brings comforts.
Pierre Corneille

Chance is always powerful. Let your hook be always cast; in the pool where you least expect it, there will always be fish.
Ovid

The strong seducer, Opportunity!
John Dryden

And listen why; for i will tell you now.What never yet was heard in tale or song.
John Milton

Love seekth not itself to please, nor for itself hath any care, but for another gives its ease, and builds a Heaven in Hell's dispair.
William Blake

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, old Time is still a-flying. And this same flower that smiles today, tomorrow will be dying.
Robert Herrick

Many women long for what eludes them, and like not what is offered to them.
Ovid

Live well. It is the greatest revenge.
The Talmud



Grace Merridew believes she'll never find true love like her sisters.

After being invited to travel to Egypt with a family friend -- a dream she's had for years -- her best friend, Melly Pettifer, begs Grace to help her get out of a betrothal she knew nothing about. So Grace disguises herself and goes with Melly to the Lord D'Acre estate.

Dominic Wolfe swore he would destroy his ancestral home to avenge his mother's memory, but even from the grave his father is trying to run Dominic's life. The only way for him to inherit is to marry the girl his father had chosenfor him. Dominic wants nothing to do with marriage and informs the girl's father that if he forces the issue, it will be a white wedding only. Once they are wed he will leave Melly at the church door never to see her again.

Grace is quick-witted and sweet; Dominic is devilishly intriguing and wonderfully male. The rest of the characters are charming and entertaining. I enjoyed the way they interacted with one another and it was not forced or stilted. This story made me laugh and cry. I kept turning pages praying there was some way to outwit the dead, and hoping for a happy outcome for all. This story is packed with dry-wit and humor.

If your looking for a funny and entertaining read this is the book for you.

Verdict:Highly Entertaining
