Miss Burton Unmasks a Prince by Jennifer Moore

kebreads's review against another edition

5.0

I really enjoyed reading this book. It had a few unexpected twists and turns. Meg was a delightful heroine. I enjoyed getting to know her and Rodrigo and enjoyed reading about their adventures.

Content: Clean - a little violence, reference to mistress
Rating: 4.5 stars

This story was cute enough. Extremely predictable. (More so than other books in this genre. I mean, you basically get the whole story in the title.)
Did not love the title or the cover image. (Such a minor thing, I know.)
Buuuut it was cute. I was looking for something easy and lighthearted and this totally fit the bill.

Like many books in this genre, MISS BURTON UNMASKS A PRINCE is predictable. You pretty much know what's going to happen just from reading the back cover copy. Still, it's a fun book full of witty banter, cute flirting scenes, and swoon-worthy romance. The book also scores points with me for being clean and upbeat. Its message is important as well: to thine own self be true (which, as Lord Featherstone would no doubt [mis]inform you, is a famous line from Shakespeare's Macbeth :]). If you like light Regency and Proper romances, you can't go wrong with this one. If you want a story with a similar tone but a little deeper content, I echo the previous reviewer's recommendation: LADY EMMA'S CAMPAIGN, also by Jennifer Moore.

A prince in disguise and a lonely, fiery, independent young woman, with a relish for Gothic novels. A bit of mystery and add in some romance and you have the essence of this tale. Fun, entertaining and lighthearted, this book is sure to delight.

I enjoyed this book. The characters were intriguing and I found myself alternating between smiling and crying as I read. It's a beautiful story and one that I would probably go back and read again.

I don't know what to rate this book. It was so predictable. I knew what would happen in the first 2 pages. I did that they way her and "Carlo" were together. That was cute.

Short fast read. It was good.

I did feel that there was another story of the Duke and Serena that I should have read to maybe understand them better, but that story does not seem to exist. I liked the ending but I did want a little more.

This book was ok, harder to get into and predictable. I did enjoy the different take of a Regency era with the Spanish side of the war. Very short.

Cheesy, fluffy, predictable. But very cute.

Had I discovered this book several years ago (when I routinely read regency romance), I would have adored it to pieces. But I fear I've read too many regency books since then, and now I've grown a little tired of the genre. However, it was a pleasant enough read, though I did roll my eyes several times.

Overall, it wasn't bad. I've just outgrown regency books for now.
