The Counterfeit Mistress

Further praise for The Counterfeit Mistress:"Madeline Hunter uses a popular Regency spy angle to intriguing effect, keeping readers—and Kendale—guessing as to Marielle’s true intentions, while creating a sizzling frame of sexual tension through Kendale and Marielle’s seductive dance of truth, daring and consequences. A smooth, sexy and sophisticated spy-themed Regency romance." --Kirkus Reviews “Replete with action, adventure, humor, and lots of delicious dialogue…This is a book I highly recommend for an enthralling read.”—Romance Junkies “Hunter is a gifted writer whose careful, engaging sense of plot and character allows her to build sexual tension and suspense. Add to this creative storytelling and graceful prose, and readers have a sexy thrill ride of a spy novel…and an unforgettable read.”—RT Book Reviews (Top Pick) “An intriguing read that pulled you in from the first few pages.”—Joyfully Reviewed Praise for the novels of Madeline Hunter: "Another stellar Regency-set historical romance that hits all the literary marks. Hunter’s effortlessly elegant writing exudes a wicked sense of wit; her characterization is superbly subtle, and the sexual chemistry she cooks up between her deliciously independent heroine and delightfully sexy hero is pure passion." --Booklist (starred review) "Intelligent and memorable...As smart and sharp as the best of Regency romances can be.  With its tangy dialogue, Pride and Prejudice themes, bits of mystery and nefarious characters, readers may be reminded of Jane Austen." --Romantic Times (Top Pick) “Hunter’s books are so addictive.”—Publishers Weekly “Hunter's flowery centerpiece will suit every romance table. Highly recommended.”—Library Journal
