Such a light, funny and heart-warming story.
I only stuck with this book on my second try. But I am so glad I did! I love the main characters, they are so well written, I could feel their doubts and their plights as if they were my own.
Absolutely wonderful ❤️

I actually thought it would be better than it was. I liked the scheming, but the plot was so Pride and Prejudice it was unoriginal. The characters were ok, and the slow burn romance a good pace and felt authentic. But there was just no real spark of attraction between Kitty and James, they could easily have been platonic what with their witty conversations and spilled secrets.
De lo más superficial que he leído en mucho tiempo. En ningún momento he sentido tensión romántica entre los personajes, ni siquiera al final. Muy desapasionado todo. Además, Kitty me ha caído fatal, no me ha gustado cómo trataba a la gente, sobre todo a su hermana, por muy pesada que fuera. Y la historia de Archie... Es que me parecen cuatro historias pegadas juntas sin conexión alguna. Todo pasa muy rápido al final y todo se soluciona en media página. Un santo aburrimiento, la verdad.

This was a lovely romance book. I was pleasantly surprised that it deviated from the usual tropes I was expecting
There was times that I wished kitty, the main character, would just shake her sister. The sister keeps asking "but do you love him?" And I badly wished kitty would grab her shoulders and shake her and tell her "I don't get that luxury you idiot. I am settling myself to an unhappy life of marrying an arsehole so you have the luxury of living a good life so why not try and be jolly grateful and shut the hell up?"
Despite that I enjoyed the book. Lots of splendid balls and stories of love

It was a decent book. I don’t normally read too much romance or historical fiction. Some parts were slow and used a little too much old time wording. There were some good parts with all of the courting and then the drama of saving Archie and Kitty’s sister. I’m glad they James and Kitty finally professed their love for each other.
