Well, that was intense...
Again: so romantic. Lisa Kleypas you melt my heart.
This book tells the story of the second wallflower scheduled to get a husband, Miss Lillian Bowman. She's filthy rich, very spirited, extremely sharp-tongued, and an American, an American husband-hunting in Victorian England, and her parents will have nothing else than an aristocrat for son-in-law - poor Lillian. Not really, for she manages to get the attention of the most eligible bachelor around, Marcus Westcliff, who is nuts about following traditions, and always does the right thing. Oh boy. Historical romance fans everywhere: you do not want to miss this.
And I can not wait to put my hands on book #3 Devil in Winter, Evie's book, because she's my favorite wallflower! :)
My cast:
Ashley Greene as Lillian
Luke Evans as Marcus

Great cast as always, Carla. :) I was seriously worried that we were going to pick the same Lillian. Lol.
Thanks Elise! I can't wait to see yours! \0/ (I'm sure it will happen again, us picking the same person to play a character xD)
It's bound to happen again. I love Ashley Green..I've never heard of that Luke Evans..but,Hello. Did you like this one or Secrets of a Summer Night better? :)
She came to my mind for this role because she seems so energetic, and something in Lillian's description (mostly the eyes) reminded me of her as well. He isn't very well known (though this might change after The Three Musketeers), I've only seen him in one or two movies, but he has this subtleness that reminds me of Marcus. (And he's English. :D)
Oh, no, don't make me choose, I don't think I can do it! I loved them both so much. But I think I know your answer to this same question, I'm putting my money on book #2. :D
I think my personal problem with IHOA was that I felt it lack an original plot. I did enjoy St. Vincent though :) One of my favorite quotes ever came from this book though:"The next time you face a room full of strangers...you might tell youreself that some of them are just friends waiting to be found."
Lisa Kleypas has the BEST ONE LINERS EVER!!
