Summary: The Abduction of Julia is a Keeper.....
Comment: Karen Hawkins excites the reader from the very first page in The Abduction of Julia. The characters and plot are wonderful. I couldn't wait to turn the last page.
Alec McLean, Viscount Hunterson, must marry the daughter of the Earl of Covington by midnight. Alec mistakenly abducts Julia instead of Therese. Julia dubbed the Frant Dragon is not at all what Alec expected. However, circumstances require that he marry immediately. Julia Frant is upset and outraged to have been kidnapped however she realizes marrying Alec could greatly benefit her charity work.
Julia and Alec are married but the war between them begins with her asking for half of his inheritance. The two lead each other on a merry chase as they each try to avoid scandal and falling in love.
There are several delightful supporting characters in the story including Aunt Maddie, Edmund and Lucien. Some parts of the story are so hilarious you can't help but laugh out loud. The Abduction of Julia is a remarkably funny and entertaining story. I can't wait to read the next Karen Hawkin's book.

Summary: A great read!
Comment: I liked this novel a lot. It was a funny and enjoyable read. Alec was great and I loved the way Hawkins described what he felt. He was a good guy that needed a little reforming! Julia was nice too. I liked the way Hawkins portrayed her character: Not vain but still wanting to look good for Alec. Not selfish, always helping others. I loved the secondry characters in this book too (I think Hawkins always has very good secondry characters - usually old funny people). I adored Alec's cousin (the bad guy) and really want to read his story when it comes out! Basically the story line was very good - you'll find that having a story based around a 'no scandal' theme when really there's scandal weaving its way around the characters all the time, can be very amusing! I do recommend this book - a satisfying read.
Rating: 3
Summary: enjoyable read
Comment: The Abduction of Julia is light and humorous, with likeable characters. Julia's been in love with Alec for as long as she can remember so when he kidnaps her by mistake, meaning to elope with her cousin, she's not too unhappy! Alec isn't too unhappy, either, because he's marrying to gain an inheritance. A familiar plot, but it's entertainingly handled. I usually like a bit more adventure mixed in with my romances, but I'll be looking out for more books by the same author.
