* Summary: Desperate to marry a wealthy man to protect her sisters - and recently thrown over by her intended - Kitty strikes out to the London Season, garners the affections of a silly man, and butts heads with his much more insightful brother.
* Stats: HR, MF, kisses only, part of a series but stands alone.
* Notes: I really enjoyed this - It struck me as a great balance of honesty and humour, and the subtlety of the developing relationship between the mains worked for me. I believe they will be happy together and will have a relationship that gives each what they as an individual need. I thought the characters were really well developed, and that they avoided the archetype traps. The side cast does get a little large, but they’re all interesting and well used by the plot. I’ll happily continue the series.
OTT and Spoilery Content Notes:

A regency era romance book. It was an easy light read and definitely had some great moments. It was much like what i would expect from a book set in this era and genre.

What a delightful trip to London's exciting and glittering past!
I very much enjoyed the writing style, glitz and glamour as well as Kitty's determination to find a suitable match for her needs. The Earl and her really went from verbally crossing swords to, well, crossing tongues.

A very funny book set in regency-era England. Romantic and, for the most part, period accurate. Very impressed with the Author, can’t wait to read the next book.
