Even wallflowers find a way to bloom...   They were dismissed as hopeless--girls too plain, too shy, too gauche to stand any chance in the ruthless competition of the London season. But Helene Fitzgerald, Madelene Valmeyer, and Adele Edmundson have no intention of remaining wallflowers. Aided by the notorious novelist, Deborah Sewell, they form the Wallflower Pact and set out to find true love for themselves--and maybe even their chaperone.   An Exquisite Marriage   Everyone knows Helene Fitzgerald will never marry. She and her wallflower friends may be on the rise socially, but Helene is still nothing but a sharp-tongued bluestocking who very publically renounced her only marriage offer. Worse, her family is in serious financial trouble. So, how is Helene suddenly attracting the eye of Marcus Endicott, the Duke of Windford and one of England's most eligible aristocrats?   Trapped by his father's long legacy of mistakes, Marcus never thought he'd find a woman he'd want enough to risk his heart. But what began as a contentious friendship has transformed into a passion beyond anything he dreamed possible. Now, Marcus's old secrets are threatening to destroy everything Helene and her friends have worked for. Can any passion be strong enough to carry Helene and Marcus away from their pasts?     Praise for the novels of Darcie Wilde   "This scintillating and multifaceted historical will leave readers eager for more."--Publishers Weekly   Look for Regency Makeover Part II: The Stepsister's Triumph… (más)

I was really, really hoping that this one was going to include one of my favorite themes, the abused/traumatized heroine and her journey of healing. While her former fiance definitely wronged her, and that made her wary of men, the flashes of memory and her response to him made me think he had assaulted her. I did enjoy this one as well, and there was just enough angst to land on that shelf, but I kind of felt like something was missing. And while I did like that all three books take place kind of back-to-back, culminating in a 3-way HEA at the end, I was a bit confused at a point: it appears that Helene and Marcus get engaged during the second book's timeline. While I get that it would be a bit of a spoiler for the third book if it was announced, the lack of a major plot point being addressed still felt a little weird when thinking back on the second book

Well, I guess I burned through that series pretty quickly! Guess I am back to being out of plain heroines :( ( )
