Search - Love Is Blind

My first Lynsay Sands historical romance and it was very good. Clarissa is an extremely likable character and you just can't help but like Adrian too. Both characters learn early on in the book that they wanted to be together and had to sneak around Clarissa's stepmother Lydia in order to see each other. Clarissa is mostly blind without her glasses and her stepmother refused to let her wear them. This leads to a series of unfortunate accidents caused by poor Clarissa. She becomes infamous for her unfortunate accidents and pretty much shunned by the Ton. Adrian is not swayed by others opinions and asks her to dance at a ball.
Adrian is a semi-tortured hero (not filled with anguish but still extremely self conscience about his war wound that marred his face) and Clarissa is a mistreated lady. They are destined to be together. But what happens if Clarissa's accidents aren't really accidents?
I recommend this book if you like historicals and like a little fun in your books. Overall you will find that this book was just sweet and you will definitely pick up another historical by Sands.

A rare treat ... a romance that certainly doesn't take itself too seriously. This one had me literally laughing out loud. Great fun.

Sweet regency from Lynsay Sands. I don't think the author is at her best in historicals; HOWEVER, I do love her sense of humor and this is a very enjoyable read. The heroine, who is near blind without her glasses (and whose stepmother won't let her wear them), is charming in her ineptitude. The war-scarred hero is perfect for her (though he adds to her troubles in his persistent belief that she won't love him if she sees his scars, which of course she's already seen - she's nearsighted, not blind!). Lynsay Sands never fails to deliver characters I actually like and wouldn't mind getting to know!

It was nice, easy read.

This is a keeper for me. After reading many angst-ridden novels, it was refreshing to read a novel full of humour. I

I loved this book. Thes characters have flaws and insecurities that beset all of us, but I laughed out loud as I read it and the things that happened because she did not have her glasses on were funny, but she was able to laugh at herself and that made her very likeable. He was insecure because of a scar and was afraid she would not want him if she could clearly see him and that just made him more likeable. You will truly enjoy this book. It also contains a little mystery because someone is trying to kill the heroine...
