This is an absolutely delightful regency romcom.

The writing is funny and it reads easily. The pacing, which I often feel changes during the story in other historical romances, is nice and steady. Peter is an absolute gem of a man and the relationship with Selina develops beautifully and you can't help but falling in love with them. Other characters too are very three-dimensional and more than just pieces to advance the plot or main couple.

Will definitely be reading Vasti's next novel.
