Why do people like this?I quit 1/3 in - it's just....no good. A bit of witty dialogue (quite risque, and completely contemporary - not at all fitting into the setting), but zero depth. There keep being irrelevant scenes, and irrelevant events and conversations during scenes.... Why on earth did she put in there that harry accidentally flung eggs on people....it has nothing to do with anything, doesn't show his personality. The whole breakfast scene was stupid and useless. I hate this book.

4.5 Another winner from Julie Anne Long: well-written, funny without trying to too hard, unusual characters, unexpected twists to a familiar premise. Long has taken over from Julia Quinn as the best funny regency historical romance author around.

I loved this one. I was irked by Moncrieffe’s initial plan but don’t worry that goes away rather quickly. I also loved Moncrieffe by the end!

I’m in love with this book. God those feels. My stomach was just twisting. I’m just amazed how the writer penned this book. Those slow sensual moments made me crazy. Those lingering meetings and conversations. So good. I have no other words.
