no good duke goes unpunished by sarah maclean

I hate, hate, HATE people who make false accusations.

Does Temple fucking go for the throat? Hang her out to dry for the years of torment he has caused her? Does Temple get his retribution? Only if retribution is a fucking synonym for 'falling in love.' 12 years later, he has made his own fortune, but society will never forget that he is a killer. He adopted the name Temple, he begins fighting as a boxer, and made his reputation as the Killer Duke. A promising young man with his life ahead of him, sent into the streets. He may be a Duke in title, but he and his family's name is blacklisted. Without a body, he cannot be convicted, but his name and his family name has been dragged through the mud. In a bed that was not his own.Īnd he was covered in blood.His memory of the night before is completely gone. The bad news is that the future Duke of Lamont was accused of her murder. 12 years ago, 16-year old heiress Mara disappeared. The Summary: Let's keep the summary short so I can get on with my rant.

It is a cookie cutter romance novel with the slightest hint of wrongdoing and a promise of revenge and nothing more than that. You could examine every inch with the most powerful of electron microscope, but the point is that there's nary a iota of revenge-exacting in this novel. You could search over this book with a fine-tooth comb.

There is a way of exacting retribution, and it is nowhere to be found in this book. The whole thing is a fucking mating dance. This is the sorriest fucking excuse of a revenge novel that I have ever read. I have zero sympathy for the main character in this book. They should fucking grovel, they should beg for forgiveness, they should not be able to fucking barter for forgiveness, spouting defiant fucking sorry-ass excuses while being dragged unwillingly every fucking step of the way. When a person knowingly, willingly destroys a person's life, they should apologize. There is the main character, an irredeemable bitch of a woman, the sort who darkens the name of womanhood, the 'Love is never having to say you're sorry' type of fucking bullshit. Revenge? What fucking revenge? This is a poor excuse of a love story, with two of the most addle-brained fucking excuse of a human being I have ever met. I am absolutely livid with anger.Ībsolution? Revenge? Retribution? You've got to be fucking kidding me.
