This is a charming deviation from the usual "ballroom" Regency. Rich with authentic Austen-esque language, this delightful romance blends witty banter, layers of secrets, a villain I loved to hate, and just enough intrigue to keep me on my toes. But of course, the very best part was the romance itself and seeing how two very brave and honorable characters overcome such terrible odds to finally find their happily ever after. I rooted for these likable characters to the very end. ...more

3.5 stars. I liked a lot about this book. But I started skimming at the end because it all started to be the same. We got to hear the main characters same thoughts over and over. But there were a lot of fun things in this. The suspense was okay, and I liked the romance, of course. If you like clean, historical fiction with a little bit of suspense, then you would probably like this.
