Helpful Score: 3
Disappointing effort from Ms. Johnson. Set in Regency England, the hero is a scarred Waterloo survivor who becomes enamored of 'the most beautiful woman in England'. Their too-long conversations are too coy, contrived, and ultimately boring. Weak plot, shallow characterizations. It was so bland that I didn't realize that I had read this book last year - and didn't remember it!

I found the book to be slow predictable read from Johnson. At this point all of her male characters are the same.
