This was a very enjoyable read. Based on a reality show and other modern things but still very enjoyable. No graphic sex or violence. A truly inspiring take on things.

Insipid book, badly written. An American takes part in an English reality show...think "The Bachelor" in Regency costume. Totally predictable from start to finish. Other than a few Austen references, there was nothing of interest here for a fan of Jane Austen. I do believe that this author's "research" consisted of watching a British TV show, called "Regency House Party" as almost all of her knowledge of Regency England seems to have been drawn directly from this television show. I say this having coincidentally watched this TV show a day or two after finishing the book and fact after fact presented in the show is incorporated into the book.
