Becoming Lady Lockwood by Jennifer Moore

2.0

A friend and I were just talking about “proper” romances, an adjective used on the cover of a book she had picked up that was intending to be synonymous with chaste rather than perhaps the modern British use of the word. There was a time in my life where I feasted on all manner of chaste and Christian historical fiction and could turn a blind eye to implausible societal breaches or awkward attempts to write a conversation like those in Jane Austen’s novels. I’ve since abandoned many “proper” romances in favor of more believable period drama.

All to say, it’s a good sign I finished this book, though it was a little wobbly in the beginning. The main character was likable and more bold than the average “proper romance” heroine.
