Your presence is requested at romantic Twill Castle

for the wedding of Miss Clio Whitmore and ... and ...?

After eight years of waiting for Piers Brandon, the wandering Marquess of Granville, to set a wedding date, Clio Whitmore has had enough. She's inherited a castle, scraped
together some pride, and made plans to break her engagement.

Not if Rafe Brandon can help it. A ruthless prizefighter and notorious rake, Rafe is determined that Clio will marry his brother--even if he has to plan the dratted wedding himself.

So how does a hardened fighter cure a reluctant bride's cold feet?

He starts with flowers. A wedding can't have too many flowers. Or harps. Or cakes.
He lets her know she'll make a beautiful, desirable bride--and tries not to picture her as his.
He doesn't kiss her.
If he kisses her, he definitely doesn't kiss her again.
When all else fails, he puts her in a stunning gown. And vows not to be nearby when the gown comes off.
And no matter what--he doesn't fall in disastrous, hopeless love with the one woman he can never call his own.

Review

Inheriting a Castles Ever After title is a life-changing experience, one that comes with surprises, unexpected romance, meddlesome friends and family, a wonderful hero and a strong-willed heroine. There's also fun, passion, and true love delivered in true Dare fashion!

-- "RT Book Reviews (4 1/2 stars, Top Pick!)"

Dare continues her Castles Ever After series with another cleverly crafted love story that hits all the high notes. A sparkling, emotionally lush romance.

-- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"

Dare's second Castles Ever After Regency puts a love-triangle twist on a familiar story of pressures surrounding marriage...Dare excels at storytelling, creating a powerful, believable romance that evokes a plethora of emotions.

Amorous prize fighter and bulldog

Reviewed in Australia on 9 January 2016

Verified Purchase

This is really good fun, but not quite as compelling as the first book in this series 'Romancing the Duke'. It deals with body image issues and being the black sheep in the family.

Clio has been engaged to her absent fiancé for 8 years. Tired of waiting she wants to break the engagement but first she needs to persuade her fiancé's brother Rafe to break the betrothal. Rafe is a prizefighter who was disowned by his aristocratic father.

I love the humour, especially Rafe's fight manager attempts to act aristocratic. Clio's family are entertaining, calling her 'dumpling' and trying to force her into small wedding dresses. It's a really good read, it just didn't reach the heights of the wonderful 'Romancing the Duke'.

A delightful read

Reviewed in Australia on 20 March 2017

An enjoyable read where two people who don't fit the societal mould struggle to find each other.
I have enjoyed Tessa Dares Spindle Cove series but was delighted to find this other series 'Castles Ever After' every bit as good. If you like English historical romance, give it a go.

Steamy but that’s really it

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 February 2020

Verified Purchase

I can’t say I cared for the story much. The whole boxing thing was a bit of a turn off. Nothing against the sport, but I really wanted the whole gentleman romance rather than a guy who’d rather be a fighter. The romance was steamy, which I liked, but I literally skipped through an nest all of the boom because it simply did not resonate or interest me. The other two books in the series were amazing though. Give this one a miss

Raif and Clio loved it.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 October 2019

Ok, if you are anything like me you have read the synopsis of this book before buying. That being the case it is spot on so you have two brothers, one a prize fighter, the other Marquess We have three sisters each with as they say a peculiarity a very old English Bulldog and an Esquire.
These are the main characters and they are great. Their personalities are unbelievable they come to life you feel every emotion they feel. Laughter, tears, confusion, love. Great story well worth the read

Another winner from this accomplished author.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 September 2016

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed this story very much. It is warm, witty, romantic and funny just as one expects from Tessa Dare. Rafe, a restless, aristocratic heavy-weight boxing champion attempts to look after his absent, older brother's responsibilities. These include a very discontented fiancee - the lovely Clio - who has had enough of waiting to be claimed by the missing marquess and has now found herself in a position to rebel. So she does just that and enters into combat with Rafe to dissolve the betrothal. They jab and spar their way to HEA. Lovely stuff. I'm looking forward to the next novel which, as far as I can see, joins Spindle Cove with Castles Ever After when Charlotte Highwood and The Missing Marquess encounter each other.

ADHD and having an eating disorder all in historical fiction and I love the way Tessa Dare brings modern issues into historical

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 May 2017

Verified Purchase

I once said to a friend that romance novels had very little substance to them, she showed me this book to prove that they could. Although it does adhere to some of the classic and oft repeated romance formulas, each character is likeable but flawed, the plot is coherent and well written and the humour is sparkling. I was incredibly impressed to find characters coded as autistic, ADHD and having an eating disorder all in historical fiction and I love the way Tessa Dare brings modern issues into historical regency settings and reminds us as readers that these things are not as new as we thought.

I loved it but end was a little rushed

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 June 2016

Verified Purchase

I really enjoyed the story and bought into the romance but felt the whole Piers thing was to quickly solved and the end was a bit rushed in general still worth a read I really liked the hero and heroine
