Great sexytimes! Hilariously funny, though low on plot. I just like KM. She's got the best books when you're in the mood to laugh.

Absolutely laugh-out-loud funny.
Tessa, a curvy American, is convinced to go on a reality show to recreate the life of a Victorian-era duchess — complete with servants to wait on her every need, and even a handsome duke too!
While the relationship does progress unbelievably fast, I loved the writing and the premise so I didn't care.

Well, I gave it a good go. Got to 50% but this is seriously one of the worst books that I have ever read in my entire life.
enjoyed it...really quick read...in a diary form which i don't usually like (i don't have time to pay attention to all of those little details like date and time for entries)...led me to check out another Katie MacAlister book...see the review for that one...
I enjoyed the concept, but the execution was not the greatest. I did not believe that the relationship was real. It seemed like the writer just wrote the relationship into existence. I did enjoy the scenes that involved the tv crew filming and their interaction with the characters. That was the only thing that kept me reading the book. Also, I did not even really like the heroine. She was honestly kind of annoying.
Because of the lack of enjoyment and the annoying heroine, this work received two stars.

Fun and out of the ordinary, so pretty much a guaranteed good time.
A nice mix between a modern-day comedy of errors rom-com and a historical romance. Max is a little too good to be believable, but Tessa is fun and following along as she navigates filming a reality TV show while falling in love and wearing a corset is infinitely enjoyable.

All I can say is OMG! This book was hilarious, I couldn't put it down for even one minute. The mystery behind who was trying to sabotage the show, I thought it may have been him but then decided it wouldn't be him and he turned out to be the culprit. (no spoilers here)... I loved how the couple met in the oddest of circumstances but how love found a way. I love the entire story of living in a time period you didn't belong in, and then having to deal with all the servants who were never servants in their lives. I found this book enticing and a great read.
2.5 - Having a hard time deciding if I should round up or down.
I'll save my thoughts for book club ;)
