3.5 - great book, but a little long winded near the middle. Honestly, the book would benefit most from cutting out the middle (and the godforsaken love triangle) completely. I loved Jack and Amanda so much; I just wished we readers had been spared the unnecessary drama. Honestly, one of the best things about Julia Quinn novels (for all their characterization problems and exceedingly safe plot lines) is their ability to forgo unnecessary drama - a talent I really wish Kleypas had.

I simply adore this book and the heroine. It's the perfect introduction into historical romance. The audiobook is excellent, too.

Don’t get me or how many stars i gave wrong, this was entertaining enough and i loved how smooth the hero was. I also did not dislike the heroine or anything like that. It’s just that I went into this with very high expectations and it was just— average. It’s a good enough romance to read when you’re bored. It’s also the first romance i listened to instead of sitting down to read it so that was a new experience.

I am not a 5 Star giver for the most part, but there is just something about this book that pulls me back time and time again. The main characters are very well-written and the story is so easy to get engrossed in, at least for me.
