I think it might have been my mood or maybe I need to read the other books in this series first, but I had trouble getting into this book and following what was going on.

Received as a digital ARC.
No star review as yet - I'll be doing a re-read for the Brazen Reads review closer to publication.
I am torn - while I love the premise for the series (THE HANGOVER, Regency-style) and the characters of Verity and Rory make a great H/h couple, I have reservations about how this novel fits into the time-line of the first two novels.

Character misperception, subterfuge and unpredictable, yet imminent true love. Brilliant.

Lady Verity Fitzroy has been in love with her brother's friend Rory Lennox, Duke of Abshire, all her life. After a night of debauchery, Rory finds himself in Verity's bed and does the honorable thing in proposing marriage - even if he and Verity's brother are no longer friendly. Verity does the unthinkable and refuses, but Rory can't take no for an answer.
I've enjoyed this series, but I thought this book was a little bit too much all over the map. There seemed to be a lot of filler with Verity teaching school and traveling all around while Rory mostly chases her. It's still a fun read, but just not as good a story for me.

There were some parts of this story that felt incomplete, but it didn't ruin the overall flavor of the book for me. Ms. Nash does a fantastic job of blending this book with the other, concurrent books in this series which, drat her, just makes me want to go back and read those books again.
Lady Verity Fitzroy has a lot going on her life. Well, not normally. She's the one average-intelligence sibling in a flock of mathematicians (or so it seems) but just lately, she's drunk absinthe at a royal party and now has woken up beside her childhood crush,Rory Lennox, the Duke of Abshire. There are some issues here with the fact that he and her brother once competed for the love of a girl who (of course) didn't deserve either of them.
But now Verity has been banished to the country and Rory is courting her. And not all that reluctantly, to both their surprise.
Of course, there are several BIG SECRETS but none of the secrets create a big enough issue to frustrate the reader ("Why didn't she just ask" sort of thing.)

Verity is the authoress of a series of diaries that do NOT paint the royal entourage in a flattering light, also, she's not a virginyarnandcameras's review against another edition
Have promised myself I'll be honest and put my fluffy reads on Goodreads too. Haha. This wasn't too bad actually; some grammar and spelling issues, but the characters were good and the plot was livable.
