Different dynamic for a Regency Romance. The heroine is not shy and retiring. But the hero is the usual dark and brooding with a lot of unspoken emotion baggage.
But did enjoy this novel, found the characters sympathetic. and the author was able to bring in merchant ships and the battle of Waterloo (very cleverly) plus parental dynamics (that bit not so convincing).
