James has buried himself in his work since the death of his wife.  However, when Juliana begins her matchmaking he begins to come alive again, although it is not Amanda that James is wanting; it is Juliana herself.  Now, he only has to find away to convince Juliana that he is her perfect match.

Tempting Juliana is another fun filled historical novel that this reviewer believes no one will want to miss.  This book is very well written with wonderful main characters and secondary characters that have a story to tell as well. This book makes one truly magnificent read.  Ms. Royal has done an outstanding job of writing a novel that will truly entertain her readers. Superbly written, excellent read.
