This is an interesting time period to set a romance since feelings between opposite genders were not encouraged unless a marriage bargain could be effected in which both parties benefited financially. No way to entertain a friendship yet a marriage and lifestyle!

A story that was so hard to put down! Throughly enjoyable!

Excellent story and well written. Quick and easy reading. I will look for more from this author.

I stayed up three hours later than I intended to because I had to finish this book in one go. There was no point when I felt I could put it down and go to sleep. I needed to know what foolish thing would be said or done next, and what the characters would do about it. All the characters felt fully emotionally invested in the plot and were delightful. Each character lived up to their potential! This was a delicious read and now I can finally go to bed after I buy the next book that was sampled at the end of this one. Such a good author.

I enjoy very much this book
