I’m not sure about you, but I love, LOVE Prologues, and this novelette fills this category to a tee in regards to the upcoming new series from Ms. Dreyer.

She cleverly introduces her next three heroines, and the hero of her upcoming full length novel here, and gives me a cliffhanger that made my mouth form an “OH” and “MY’ and “GOD”!

Let me back up a bit and tell you that the characters of all the girls introduced will peak your interest; the setup, of all of them having resided at the Last Chance Academy for some time, and the abuse they endured that bonded them for a life time, was a great teaser for me. No way will I pass up on finding out more about that bond; about that friendship which will be as much of a story as the HEA’s from each girl.

I loved where this story left off, ....

* I received a copy of this book from NetGalley * ( )

Well it's Eileen Dreyer, snd it's a nifty little thing. With the emphasis on the word little. Not even a short story, really, so for $1.99 for something that short and a teaser for another book, I am not happy. For a lot of authors I'd have given one star just because I was annoyed, but she does a lot to make me go "Ok, ok, when's the next book!"

IT BEGINS WITH A KISS by Eileen Dryer is a quick,fun historical romance. Book 3.5 in the "Drake's Rakes"series,but can be read as a stand alone. See,"Barely A Lady","Never A Gentleman",and "Always A Temptress".
It gives a bit of information into the other characters at the "Last Chance Academy". Sparks fly when Alex Knight,spy to the Crown and Fiona Ferguson,a Scottish beauty,who is nothing but trouble. Alex soon findsw passion in the arms of Fiona along with a passionate kiss. "It Begins With A Kiss" is a fast paced,quick read. I look forward to the next installment in this series. "It Begins With A Kiss" features the next three heroines in the Drake's Rakes saga"."Three heroines,who not only survived "The Last Chance Academy" but thrived. And three heroes who are master spies masquerading as Drake's Rakes". What is next for the Drake's Rakes and their ladies? I can hardly wait to find out.A must read historical romance. While a quick read it is enjoyable,although you are left with a cliffhanger. Received for an honest review from the publisher. Details can be found at the author's website, Grand Central Publishing and My Book Addiction and More.
