Counterfeit Courtship (Candlelight Regency Special)

by Prudence Martin

Published 1982ISBN 978-0-4401-1314-0

Dashing Justin Norville, Marquis of Develan, was the most notorious rake in London...and now an ardent suitor for her hand! The ton was all agog. How had Taci Blackwood succeeded where so many others had failed? Only Taci knew the truth: She had been compromised by the drunken marquis. He was merely honoring his obligation to ask for her hand. Clearly his affections were elsewhere, but try as she might, she couldn't forget those burning stolen kisses. Taci had sworn to marry honestly--only for love. Was she about to let this titled thief who had robbed her lips plunder her heart as well?

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Nonfiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Preview the edition to decide how it fits your available reading time.

Begin with its place in Nonfiction, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. Whose perspective organizes the story, and whose perspective remains outside it?
  2. Which sources or lived experiences carry the author’s central argument?
  3. How does the book change the way you understand its larger subject?
