Reader Review: This book picks up where the last one leaves off...well, sort of. In Madame's Deception, author Bernard tells the tale of Jocelyn Tolliver, a.k.a. Madame Deboucer, from "A Lady's Pleasure." Although this book was a semi-intriguing read, the quality was not up to par with Bernard's first book. I found the book lacking in storyline development, and at times, it seemed to be reaching for the elusive chemistry between the main characters that was prevalent throughout the first book. Perhaps I am being rather harsh for writing such a poor review, but then again, I don't think that any author should follow up a good first effort with such a poor second showing.
When an innocent takes over a bordello, can her seduction be far behind?
Jocelyn Tolliver believes that her mother's couture business financed her European boarding school education. Imagine her shock when she discovers that her dying mother is the infamous Madame of London's elite Crimson Belle. Promising to care for the bordello and its ladies, Jocelyn, a virginal bookworm, transforms herself and is soon known as the reclusive Madame DeBourcier.
Rakish Alex Randall, Lord Colwick, is determined to win admittance to the intriguing Madame's bed. His outrageous attempts to garner her favor cannot go unnoticed for long. . . . When danger threatens the elegant women of the Belle, Jocelyn strikes a bargain with Alex, hoping he can provide some protection. But Jocelyn's deception forces her and Alex into a passionate battle of wills in which all illusions will be shattered . . . and all desires fulfilled.

Not exactly as fast past as Bernard's previous book. In fact, it is quite slow. So slow, it becomes somewhat tedious to read. If you enjoyed, "A Lady's Pleasure," you may find yourself sorely disappointed in "Madame's Deception." If you have nothing better to do, "Madame's Deception" is good bed time reading; it'll put you right to sleep.

This was a large let down from the first book in this series, mainly because the story took too long to start and draged on and on and on... I'm not one to stop reading a book because it is boring, but I was just about to give up on this one.
