This was a new author for me. Can't say I cared for this book much...I found it hard to follow at times.

I wasn't sure from the summary that it was a Regency Romance, so that was a bit surprising. Also, the book is a bit lighter in content than it's size would suggest and the female lead's back story is never quite fully fleshed out.

In the end, the book was a light, quick, unexceptional read.
