3.8 AVERAGE


3.5 stars
Fast paced towards the end. The chapters almost feel rushed. There was some good ideas with only ok execution. Before they married was more entertaining after the wedding was bland. Has put me off reading the rest of the series.

Alright, I understand why people say Lisa Kleypas is a must-read author when discovering historical romance books to read.

Like it’s not that I didn’t enjoy it, but I wouldn’t like recommend it to anyone. Like it wasn’t anything special.
WHY THE FUCK DID SHE HAVE TO REFER TO HER VAG AS A “BUNDLE OF CURLS”
like I get that it’s historical so obviously they can’t shave but did she have to point it out that many times?????? And what the fuck is his loins???? Safe to say,
No thanks.

Simon is a rich, self-made businessman who's had his eye on the beautiful but undowered Annabelle for the last 2 years.

Annabelle is under mounting pressure to find a husband to help support her mother and brother, but despite her beauty, she has been unsuccessful these last 4 seasons without a dowry.

Simon and Annabelle's attraction is obvious by the way they argue and keep circling back to one another. Annabelle finally starts to realise there is more to Simon than the smirking, lower-class man she imagined him to be, and Simon decides that having Annabelle in his life exclusively will take more commitment than he was originally willing to make.

This book contains descriptive love scenes.
