I read the first book in this series at best friend s recommendation, and was mildly pleased but not overwhelmed At the promise that the series gets better and better, I picked a later volume at random based on the storyline that looked the most appealing to me I was correct that I would like this story within better than the Pink Carnation, both because the characters appeal to me and because the writing has improved There are still a few times when I feel like the women are a little bit too c [...]
This book didn t grab as much as the earlier ones in the series Jane didn t even show up, and was only mentioned once, in passing The series should be called The Henrietta series, as she seems to be of a recurrent character.I really liked the main character, Charlotte the book worm However, I don t feel the author did a good job of making her or especially her love interest, Robert, come to life The story about the kidnapping of the King was good, but the execution of the plot, not the king see [...]
Lauren Willig has created two very likeable characters in Lord Dovedale and Lady Charlotte, who mimic their present day counterparts with errors in miscommunication Eloise Kelly, who for her Ph.D dissertation is on the trail of the legendary English spy the Pink Carnation, and her lover a true descendant of the Carnation s, Colin Selwick But beyond the errors caused by their simple lack of courage to communicate neither storyline offered much of a mystery filled with intrigue, or threat of dange [...]
Charlotte et Robert sont d une choupitude qui d fie toute concurrence, Henrietta et Miles sont pr sents et absolument parfaits Miles soupirs , tout le monde est badass, c tait parfait Seul b mol, Eloise est quand m me parfois un peu cruche XD mais bon, je me dis que pour une h ro ne de chick lit, elle aurait pu tre bien pire, donc je l aime quand m me
4.5 stars I liked the fairytale quality of both Charlotte and Robert and the story did bring a touch of fact into it Now, please excuse me, I have a unicorn to catch
I have mixed feelings about this book On the one hand, I greatly appreciate that this book is much cleaner than the first few books of the series On the other hand, the story was not nearly as interesting as the previous books The whole spy part of the series was basically absent, except for a few thrown in references to the Pink Carnation or the Black Tulip I am hoping that a later book will help tie this book in to the whole underground spy world perhaps the villain in this book was actually t [...]
I was surprisingly impressed by this latest Willig novel I mean, I absolutely adored Pink Carnation and I tend to reread it very regularly, but for some reason I haven t felt the same about many of her other efforts, particularly the last one Crimson Rose I suppose on one level, Willig s very detailed and carefully drawn characterizations tend to incline the reader to identify very strongly with certain of her heroines With that said, perhaps it s no surprise that I like short, outgoing, bouncy, [...]
I was so excited for this book that maybe my excitement ruined me with expectations Although, it was a good entertaining read, it lacked certain charm that the other books had For one, usually the heroine in the 1800s works along with although reluctantly on the heros part with the hero to unravel whichever mystery or plot they are working towards But, in this instance it was a your standard case of man trying to protect woman Secondly, there were unanswered questions in this book Why specifical [...]
Charlotte has been waiting at Girdings for her knight in shining armour to come, just like those glorious murals depicting her ancestors bravely battling their foes on long gone battlefields or the books she consumes copiously She even has her own dragon with her grandmother, the Dowager Duchess of Dovedale Then on Christmas Eve, out of the snow, Robert returns Fleeing the family home for India all those years ago, the Duke of Dovedale returns like a knight returning from a long crusade in the H [...]
En fait c est un 4,5 S il n y avait eu que Charlotte et Robert, j aurais mis un 5 mais le c t TSL d Eloise fait perdre 0,5.Donc je ne me suis pas r ellement int ress e la partie contemporaine, mais l historique Ahhhhh c tait bien C est une histoire pleine de candeur, de contes de f es, de licornes Une h ro ne pas si na ve et un h ros comme je les aime, amoureux mais se sentant peu digne d tre aim de sa belle L intrigue espionnage est grosse tr s grosse Mais a l est tellement que a marche D Au fi [...]
I really wanted to like this one, I did, I did But everything just went to bits at the last part of the book, and it tipped over into the too silly for words category Which I hate, especially when the first two thirds of the story was pretty darn good For the longer review, please go here epinions review Book_T
I was disappointed in this novel While I liked Robert and Charlotte a lot than Eloise and Colin I didn t see the point of this story The bit about King George was interesting but only in a vague sense I ve also begun to actively dislike Eloise I think the series has a lot of merit, but with this book, it took me forever to get to a point where I thought it was interesting.
Highly enjoyable I liked the inclusion of the royal family and the Hellfire Club I enjoyed the feistiness of the heroine The hero with the over the top inferiority complext so much But it made for a good story.
In the fifth installment in her Pink Carnation Series, Napoleonic espionage ensues as Lauren Willig spins her captivating tale of the exploits of Robert Lansdowne, the reluctant Duke of Dovedail, and his bookish young cousin Charlotte in The Temptation of the Night Jasmine Set in England in 1803, Robert s unexpected return to his ducal estate in Sussex after a decade in the Army in India rekindles Lady Charlotte s idealistic fantasies Fueled by her passion for romantic novels such as Evelina sh [...]
Inevitably in any popular series, sooner or later the writing gets stale character arcs become unbelievable, plots are rehashed, or the reader can simply feel the writer s own weariness for the once beloved story lines Not so for Lauren Willig If anything, The Temptation of the Night Jasmine is the strongest book in the Pink Carnation series so far.Framed once again by the research and relationship trials of graduate student Eloise Kelly, Night Jasmine opens after Eloise and her new beau Colin h [...]
Let me be up front in saying that I honestly grabbed this audio book, not just because I had already listened to the previous four that came before, but because I was so invested in the modern day story that is embedded in these spy novels While the spy stories are being told, we as readers understand that it is through our modern storyteller, Eloise Keller, that we are getting anything at all It is her story, and her romance with modern day descendant to the Pink Carnation, Colin Selwick, that [...]
For once, I enjoyed the historical plot than the romantic Don t get me wrong, Willig s novels are always an enjoyable read, but what happened to the sexual tension that she has been so adept at delivering The first three Carnation books followed a vague sexual structure first kiss, heated second kiss, and then the sex scene That all evaporated in the 4th book The Crimson Rose delivers on the first two steps, at least, but Night Jasmine doesn t even deliver a proper second kiss I thought that pe [...]
2.5 StarsI suppose there comes a time and in this case, by the fifth book, that ideas run thin This particular installment in the Pink Carnation series is being hailed as a modern Pride and Prejudice About the only thing the two novels have in common is the time period and clothes It seems Willig simply borrowed the basic plot to fill in the blanks for this lukewarm scheme The villain, the Night Jasmine, is barely present Instead, he moves like a cardboard figure throughout the story, making cam [...]
5 in the Pink Carnation Series started out slowly, had some slow moments but overall was a very good story The mystery was much straightforward and very well done It involves King George s madness, which is always a fascinating topic This was the best part of the story Eloise and Colin are staying at his country house and she is as annoying as always There is something so childish and immature in her voice that just rubs me the wrong way And couple in the historical part of the story are almost [...]
I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS et vive les tartines de framboise Charlotte laquelle on a pas de mal s identifier elle pas son temps dans les biblioth que lire et r ver tous les h ros fictifs qu elle croise un chevalier, sur son cheval blanc, viendrait la sauver un jour toussa et l arrive Robert apr s 12 ans pass es en Inde, et Charlotte entend d un coup les trompettes de la cavalerie les violons a va pas tr s bien niveau ambiance xD s sont choupis tous les deux, mener chacun leur enqu tes sur les complot [...]
Oh dear This just was not my cup of tea I have really loved this series and I have every intention of continuing, but this one mainly bored me I also didn t care for either of the main characters I ve actually looked forward to an installment starring the bookish Charlotte But she grated on my nerves at every turn In the beginning she had her head in the clouds romanticizing everything When she was betrayed by Robert, his actions turned her into an unforgiving and whining snob On occasion the pl [...]
Blooming Night Jasmine This is a review of the audiobook If you follow my reviews, you know I just adore this series I was so disappointing that the previous narrator wasn t narrating this one however, Justine Eyre does a fine job with the inflection, accents, tone, and male female voices I ll definitely listen to her again.I was also worried that I wouldn t like a story surrounding the Hellfire Club, but this one was excellent Lady Charlotte Lansdowne, wearing rose colored glasses firmly upon h [...]
A rather different start from previous books in the series, the main characters in this one Richard and Charlotte Lansdowne tumbled accidentally into the clock and dagger world of espionage war against the French While their adventures and slow courting were entertaining enough, the route of misunderstanding, confusion and stubbornness irritated me to no end.It started so well then going downhill with each stupidity or saving dignity acts both MCs did Miles Dorrington came to the rescue by way o [...]
4.5 stars I venture to say I might have enjoyed this even on second reading A fun romp with great characters We even got some cameos from the Royal family and a unicorn I loved Charlotte Robert They were very entertaining, and had a fairytale like quality I loved Charlotte s dreamy personality and that she was a true book lover That elusive spy, the Pink Carnation, is absent in this entry but I m sure she will return in our next book Miss Gwen was also missing in action, but the old Duchess of [...]
This is going on my favorites shelf I think it s my favorite of the whole series Charlotte loves to read In fact, she spends her free time reading and dreaming of princes and knights and battles and happily ever afters Then Robert, Duke of Dovedale comes home and she believes she ll get hers Robert falls for Charlotte, whom he s known since childhood But, Robert has another agenda avenging his friend and mentor s death In order to do that, he leaves Charlotte and breaks not only her heart, but d [...]
The fifth addition to the Pink Carnation series by Lauren Willig A nice addition to the Pink Carnation series Robert, Duke of Dovedale, has returned to England from India He is out to avenge the death of his mentor Charlotte is a distant cousin whose father was the duke before Robert Robert doesn t have time to get distracted by his lovely cousin but things don t always work the way you plan There wasn t as much spying as earlier books but it was still good Likable characters and a good plot tha [...]
I enjoyed this book, though not as much as the earlier books It is slow moving, and takes a while to get to the real spy plot Eloise s story is less interesting this time around as well, and the sexual tension between her and Colin is much less intense However, the development of the love between Charlotte and Robert is very well done Willig does a nice job developing their relationship from the early stages of lust and infatuation to real love.
Not wild about it the second time 4 to 3 stars On to Blood Lily 2016 reread possibly my least favorite.2017 I suspect my last comment 2016 was because the narrator of the audiobook was not Kate Reading Still, far from my favorite.ough the second half certainly saved it from 2 stars.
Charlotte s the best part of this entry in the series she s a believable heroine for her times, and it s nice to see a character unravel a mystery as a result of her kindness and empathy for others It s pleasing that Willig made the choice to show how someone who isn t action oriented can still create significant change in the world around them.
The Temptation of the Night Jasmine is the fifth installment in Lauren Willig s Pink Carnation series of historical fiction novels The series follows American graduate student Eloise and her search for information on the English French spies of the late 1700s early 1800s that all seem to be named after flowers Turning a bit of fiction into reality for her world, Willig s books exist in a reality where the Scarlet Pimpernel was a real spy for England during the French Revolution, though the exist [...]
