Fiction. Romance. Historical Fiction. HTML:

IN THE DECADENT COURT OF CHARLES II, SHE WANTED A MOST UNSUITABLE MAN—HER HUSBAND.

Orphaned and raised by her uncle, the feisty sixteen-year-old Chelynne resolves to show her gratitude by marrying the man of her uncle's choice. Bracing herself for a graying, sickly noble, the last man she expects for a husband is the dashing future Earl of Bryant, Chadwick Hawthorne—suddenly, being a loving wife doesn't seem too hard a task. But he spurns her affection and remains her husband only in name, never in deed. Tormented by unfinished business from his past and an uprising threatening his land, Chad resolves to keep his distance from everyone, including his young wife.

Chelynne will go to any lengths to ignite her husband's passion and save their marriage. But when she finally goes too far, the Earl must share his dark secret before Chelynne loses her reputation—or worse, her life.

Set during the English Restoration, CHELYNNE is filled with political conspiracies, family secrets, and shocking affairs, creating a deliciously complicated plot. Fans of VIRGIN RIVER are going to love this historical novel written with Robyn's trademark zest for life.

"A delightful book...Robyn Carr is absolutely marvelous." —Danielle Steel

"Adventure, danger, derring-do, as well as doings at the glittering anything-goes court of Charles II ....Carr tells an entertaining yarn." —Publishers Weekly

"A fast, gripping story...The reading public can anticipate good books from an imaginative new author."—Best Sellers

Since this was the first novel for Robyn Carr I thought it was well written and thought out for a first novel. I agree with some that it was hard to like Chad at times. But the story is a good romance that I downloaded at the sale price of $1.99.

I switched from hating to loving this book. I didn't understand estrangement and was troubled by hero's treatment of heroine but as the plot changed these things made the rest of the story all that more powerful. During the reign of King Charles II, a marriage is arranged between beautiful Chelynne unwilling groom Chadwick.

I really enjoyed this book. It moved at a great pace and had well developed characters. The book is set when Charles was king of England. ( )

I thought this a little different then the average recency romance, and while some parts of it are, it still sort of stuck to the same storyline.

It was pretty good overall and well I liked the cover (this edition) ( )
