Summary: A disappointment!
Comment: I thought this book had a lot of promise. I enjoyed a previous book by this author. But, shortly after beginning this book, I started to get a bad feeling. I feel that it went too long with Marshall only wanting Evelyn as a mistress. In other books with the same premise, (and I can't think of a good example right now), it didn't go clear until the end before the hero realized he loved his mistress. I don't enjoy books such as this one where there is only a physical bond. I know he did wonderful things for Evelyn, but Marshall never looked at her as a future wife until the end. I know this book has received high marks so many people have enjoyed it. I may just be too fussy and picky, but I felt Evelyn was a victim and had to be too grateful to her rescuer. I guess I should stick to books where the two leads are a little more equal in status. It might leave a better taste in my mouth.

Summary: I love this hero
Comment: If ever there were a man to champion my needs, please let it be the Marquis of Waltham, Marshall Hanley Bedford. Even his flaws gleam with the polished perfection of his peerage. The intelligent and witty Marquis of Waltham will have a mistress and sets his mind on the lovely seamstress, Evelyn Dennsworth. Fate falls at his feet when Evelyn is accused of steeling. Already a captive of her beauty, the marquis saves her from the horrors of London's Victorian prisons. Like playing a long slow game of poker, the Marquis uses his finely honed aristocratic skills to seduce her. Though the lovable Evelyn may be vulnerable to his charms, she is far too smart to be tricked by his seduction. With every play of his hand they come closer to being exposed to a society as binding to class as the corsets that bound their women.
Ms Waddell is a gifted writer. She has an uncanny ability to write one line dialogues and events that speaks volumes about her characters. I roared with laughter, screamed with their triumph and cried at their defeat. I'm so glad "He Said Yes" is the beginning of a series because I do not want this to end.

Summary: Very highly recommended
Comment: Marshall Hanley Bedford, Marquis of Waltham, looks forward to settling his family comfortably so he can one day marry. In the meantime, a mistress could easily meet his needs. But a simple seamstress captures his imagination and throws his plans, his future and his reputation into a tizzy. He intends to make Evelyn Dennsworth his mistress. Then she stands unjustly accused of theft, and Marshall feels compelled to come to her rescue. He hires a lawyer and has her released from prison under his protection until her innocence can be proven.
In the meantime, Marshall sets Evelyn up in her own house. Despite tantalizing kisses, Evelyn makes it clear that she will never become his mistress. However, she does become his stepmother's assistant. During the days, Evelyn's influence draws Lady Waltham out of her deep mourning and helps her to live again. Nights Evelyn spends in Marshall's arms as his lover. Then horribly, she accused of theft once again.
Author Patricia Waddell begins a wonderful new series with the Gentleman's Club. These fast paced Victorian romances begin with HE SAID YES, to be followed by February 2004's release of HE SAID NO. In HE SAID YES, author Waddell once again demonstrates her gift for matching a strong, intelligent, determined heroine with a strong, honorable, and extremely passionate hero. Indeed, Marshall and Evelyn's unconventional verve and remarkable honesty cannot help but capture reader's hearts. Moreover, their story absolutely sparkles, striking just the perfect note between tender and passionate, impossible and believable. Secondary characters are likewise believable, lending the novel wonderful depth. HE SAID YES comes very highly recommended.
