Bad Ass Heroine
Hard to put down. Loved the characters
too long — to much sex, /but I kept a reading it,
I bought this as a duplicate…. Didn’t know it was part of a set I already had. But this book was great. I loved the story…See my review of all 3 I highly recommend them!
A little too dark for me. Started out well. I love that the h was so independent but almost too much so.
I’ve this author before. I have mixed feelings about reading others. If you lean toward Gothic romance, you’ll like this one.
A real page turner — what a mystery!

Liked it. Suspenseful. Strong characters, especially the duchess.
did not like it very much
Absolutely great read! Highly recommend!
This has a good story but has too much cruelty and gore with too detailed description for me of how much the h suffered . Do not want to read more of her novels because of this.
Loved every one of her books.
Loved it – a great read with the HEA coming just in time. Highly recommend this book!

“Stone Devil Duke” by K.J. Jackson
This is the first book of “The Hold Your Breath Series”
Lady Augustine Christopherson had watched as her father was murdered and now she was in London rooming the streets looking for his killers before they found her. She had been attached and they were searching for her too. Armed to the hilt she drove an old …
It was an interesting story line. I liked that the heroine continually suprised the hero.
Keep them coming Ms. Jackson. Love your writings!
