Help promote this title
Description
It is 1688 and in London, Helena Woulfe has put the horrors of the Monmouth Rebellion behind her and looks to her future life as the wife of Guy Palmer. Helena has what she always wanted, respectability and security, although her brothers remain a constant worry - Aaron is in Holland with the Prince of Orange, and surely what he plans is treason? While Henry carries his own sorrow, pining for another man's wife. Prince William arrives in England to re-establish the Anglican Church, and when riots break out in London, Helena is forced to flee from her home – again. Guy Palmer grows more prosperous and their marriage is happy, until Helena’s discovery of her husband’s weakness drives her into an unwise liaison and she learns there is a price to pay for recklessness and keeping secrets. While Helena strives to keep what she holds dear, Henry seeks his own happiness and Aaron’s ambition is to retain the family estate? Can they attain what they desire and above all, will the Woulfe siblings ever learn the fate of their missing Father?

Reading Duking Days: Revolution is like stepping back in time. Anita Davidson makes the transition flawless for the reader as she reunites them with the Woulfe family. Though I read Duking Days: Revolution before Anita's earlier novel, 'Duking Days: Rebellion', the skill with which the author draws her readers into the family's epic sage ensured my thorough enjoyment through every page. The rich tapestry Anita weaves, of life in the 17th C, is captivating, the action is intense, while the characters and their situations are rivetting. A beautifully crafted novel that delivers all a Romance reader could want and more.

Anita Davison pulls off an excellent sequel to Duking Days Rebellion with this book. I very much enjoyed learning more about about the characters from the first book and how they lives have changed from the effects of the war a few years before. Helena has gorwn into a woman with great strength and passion. The secondary characters are well drawn and fascinating additions to the story. Ms Davison writes beautifully of the 17th century period, drawing the reader in so that we feel a part of the characters' lives and we can experience the atmosphere of that era.

Review by Ginger Simpson
After reading Anita Davison's first offering about 17th century England, I have no hesitation in the least to purchase her second book. Until I experienced her descriptive style and realized her ability to meld reader with the characters and time period, I had no idea how much I would enjoy my trip through England's history. This author brings such reality to the story, I felt as though I sat beside Helena in the family carriage as it rolled over the cobblestone streets. I felt her fears, shared her joys, and cried with her when she believed her world was collapsing around her. The story was inspiring and left me anxious for the next installment. I highly recommend anything Ms. Davison writes. You'll be telling your friends about her as I'm telling you. Trust me. She's found a fan in me.
