Wow, the author has finally written a book that was disappointing to me. This offered a humdrum storyline with flat, one-dimensional characters.

I liked the story here and I liked that the woman didn't have to be virginal! :) I didn't however think the other characters were expanded on very well, especially since there is supposed to be a series of these books. I will read the rest and hope they improve.

I really liked this unconventional post-Regency, early Victorian-era story of Gideon Pearsall and Judith, Lady Chester, a widow. He's 32 and she's 30; both have vowed never to marry again. But it seems this couple was struck by a "lightening bolt." I look forward to the next book in this series.

Great story. Great characters. I can't wait for the next one.

I love this book. It is the first of "The Last Man Standing" series.

I have all of the books in this series on my TBR. And since I really, REALLY need to trim my TBR, somewhere in the back of my mind I was hoping that I wouldn't like this book and could take the entire series off my TBR.

Well, for the first 100 pages or so, it looked like I might get my wish. This is one of those books where the hero and heroine fall into bed first, and fall into love later. Even though there was lust aplenty in those first hundred pages, I wasn't feeling the passion. And the witty banter seemed .... forced. But then their emotions FINALLY got involved in the story and both characters started to seem much more human. I devoured the rest of the book and can't wait to finish the rest of the series.

This book probably just restored my faith in romance novels. I've been really bitter towards them lately because the main characters are always so predictable and the plots have holes large enough to fall into. Not so with this story!

Both characters are likeable and witty. They have a very unconventional relationship which makes the romance interesting. And the plot of the book takes up more of the pages than the sex scenes. There were two or three really good steamy ones, but the rest of the book focuses on the plot, not just describing lush curves and throbbing members. Many other romance novels seem to skip the plot and just write really uncomfortable sex.

A few downfalls - I liked each character individually but wasn't quite sure what they saw in each other. Another question I had was, if Judith had been so discreet with her previous relationships, how is it everyone and their sister seems to know about them, to the point of having wagers on how long her relationship with Gideon will last? Also, the author uses the expression "adventure" to the point of silliness.

But still, it is a very good unconventional romance novel. I definitely look forward to reading more in the series!

One of my first books by this author. I enjoyed it enough to continue reading this series. I enjoyed the fact that Judith was able to take more "liberties" than a woman of this time period is normally allowed however I disliked all the "baggage" she brought with her.

I really liked this book. It has a very different plot. About three chapters in to the book, I couldn't figure out how the author would be able to sustain the readers interest. Then the book got really good! This book is very recent, publish date 2007.

Was an alright book. A first for me by this author. I will probably look up her other books.

Even when he's stopped dead in his tracks by the most scandalous woman in all of London, Judith, Lady chester, he vows to have her bedded but never wedded. Beautiful and more than a little bit naughty, Judith has always kept herself within the bounds of respectability, even while playing by her own rules. And the experience has taught her to avoid marriage. She has no desire to resist Warons hot kisses, and his tempting touch is impossible to ignore. But soon Judith and Gideon can't help but wonder is it possible to be a little bit wicked and still follow your heart.

Enjoyable read, a fun ending.

Not my favorite VA story, but it really does redeem itself in the end. I still laughed through the whole book!
