Una novela romántica de Julia Quinn, clásica y con toques de humor. Aunque el conflicto podría haberse resuelto más avanzada la historia , tengo la sensación de que las cosas se aclaran muy pronto y luego sólo queda esperar por el inevitable final feliz.
De todas formas, pasas un buen rato

Though I did like this book, Robert was basically barassing Victoria xD didn't really like that part, like she didn't have any choice in the matter.
Other than that, a classic sweet Julia Quinn book.

Victoria is the Vicar's Daughter and Robert is the Earl of Macclesfield they fall in love but after their families intervene are forced to part.
This was a rollercoaster of a story with lots of twists and turns. The character development was vast and I empathised with them. The narrator was good and easy to follow. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

I felt like this misunderstanding could have been resolved quicker and it was annoying at times. But I really like everything (and the moon) Julia Quinn writes.

Up until Chapter 11, I was head over heels madly in love with this book. The young couple who were so madly in love with each other but torn apart by a misunderstanding (on both ends)... tragic! Then seeing them meet up again 7 years later only to have him break her heart a second time... and then he finds out the truth?! GAH! It was amazing. The stuff legendary romance is made of! I laughed, I even teared up a bit!
Then we got to chapter 11.
I was curious how she was going to fill 200 or so more pages when we got to this point, and I felt really let down. I really didn't like how the guy forced his attentions on her, and I really hated what he ultimately did to 'catch' her. The blame wasn't all his though - I couldn't wrap my head around why the heroine was so sure she didn't want him. Wouldn't even consider him. Yeah, I get that her heart was broken by him, and yes there is a great line about him giving her the moon then pushing her off of it... still. It didn't quite fit for me.
There are some parts I really did NOT like... I can't say more without spoiling so just imagine me with a death glare and steam from my ears.
It ended up ok in the end I guess, but I never felt like I understood fully the 'why'. Ah well, I still adore Julia Quinn and will continue my path through her back-list of titles.
