Julia Quinn

I really liked this one. It gave similar vibes to Benedict Bridgerton’s book but had more adventure!

I liked it, but then it's rare that I admit to disliking a JQ book ([b:Mr. Cavendish, I Presume|2881565|Mr. Cavendish, I Presume (Two Dukes of Wyndham #2)|Julia Quinn|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1314462248s/2881565.jpg|2907783] and [b:The Lost Duke of Wyndham|6012471|The Lost Duke of Wyndham (Two Dukes of Wyndham, #1)|Julia Quinn|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1274212418s/6012471.jpg|2255595] are the exceptions). Daniel and Anne's story was very sweet and enjoyable, the humor I adore had my chuckling a couple of times...then Anne made a comment
Spoiler when she was going to make love with Daniel about her first time not counting because it wasn't with him. Sorry. You don't get to lose your virginity a second time.
I disagree. Other minor details didn't seem realistic, but they also didn't detract from the pleasure of the tale. Fun read.

Another kidnapping twist at the end ay Julia? Must happen often to gentry in the 1800s huh?

Another entertaining, cute lil romance. I liked the similarity to Offer from a Gentleman. Not my favorite, but also not my least favorite. 3.7/5

2.5 Two leads both have hits out on them. Anne is in hiding as a governess. Daniel has just returned to England but is still on edge. Their chemistry doesn't really exist--basically Daniel sees that Anne is really really hot.
