Book Description:

The fiery Miss Tennant wants satisfaction from the popular lady columnist who ruined young Belinda's life. But imagine Eleanor's surprise when she discovers the anonymous author of the odious advice is a disarmingly attractive man named Simon Westover! Well, the handsome cad is responsible for this outrage and he will set things right! As for Simon, he must protect his "Busybody" identity at all costs -- and therefore agrees to help Eleanor scour the English countryside for missing Belinda and her paramour. But the intoxicating nearness of the exquisite lady -- not to mention her dazzling emerald eyes and lush, kissable lips -- is almost too much for a hopeless romantic like Simon to bear. Yet how can he convince Eleanor that he is no mere meddler but a passionate male with intense desires ... and prove to the stubborn, straightforward miss that dreams of love can come true?

This was the first Candace Hern book I've read. I really enjoyed the story. The hero is not your typical rough & tumble, daredevil, alpha male. He's romantic & passionate while the heroine is pragmatic & cynical. Don't let the crappy "bodice-ripper" style cover put you off. Avon Books insists on putting these terribly cheesy covers on novels by their romance authors.

Number 1 of 3 books. I'm hoping the other 2 are better than this one. I really disliked the hero and heroine. At no point did I ever even think about liking those two. Hero is a bad poetry writing, everything is wonderful, romantic and the heroine is just a plain b....ummm, witch. What would normally take me 1-2 days to read took me 2-3 weeks. It's usually "I couldn't put it down." This one was "I couldn't pick it up." The only reason I finished it was because once I start, I have to finish.

A good read ... I especially loved the hero, Simon!

This is a great read! Even believable in spots! It concerns the consequences following the publishing of advice to the lovelorn and a young girl's use of it to follow her heart. Her Aunt is not so sanguine and sets out to foil the plot and to punish the advisor.
