Lingefelt's writing style will excite you with the same witty, sexy, and fast paced story that embodied [Amanda] Quick's first novels. If you are a Quick fan this book will go on your keeper shelf, if you aren't--well, Karen Lingefelt's TRUE PRETENSES might go there anyway.

TRUE PRETENSES is a very fun debut novel and I would be curious to see more from this author. It's obvious that she is writing because she enjoys it, and her enthusiasm shows throughout the entire story . . . she has produced a humorous and delightful book.

TRUE PRETENSES is a true delight to read! Kit and Serena are wonderfully entertaining characters. Kit is noble, kind and compassionate, a true knight in shining armor. For a completely enjoyable and memorable read, I highly recommend TRUE PRETENSES. It's a great book and most definitely one for the keeper shelf.

Ms. Lingefelt has also created a dynamic character in her hero, Kit Woodard. This delicious duke is not only true hero material, he's the stuff dreams are made of . . . If you like masquerade stories, I highly recommend TRUE PRETENSES
---Romance Reader at Heart
TRUE PRETENSES is a fun book full of twists and turns on the road to finding the truth and love. Ms. Lingefelt has woven a complex story full of intrigue, well developed secondary characters, and witty dialogue . . . a well-told Regency story.

I thoroughly enjoyed this little romp of a romance. It's steamy in the right places, fun in others, and enjoyable all the way through.
