Helpful Score: 2
I picked this book up on a whim, not knowing what to expect.
I ended up really enjoying this book! I was hooked from the first words:
It was not the first time Lady Westington had awakened tied to a bed.
It was not even the second.
and it proceeded from there with a story that is not exactly identical to every other romance out there. (OK, its not exactly unique, but then a unique romance is impossible to find. But it's different enough that I didn't have any vague notions of already having read the exact same plot many times over already). I think this particular book is a cut above the rest. The author really managed to write about realistic characters, and she captured their feelings about falling in love with a partner that is unexpected. I thought the writing of the romantic scenes was particularly well done, the author managed to capture not just the passion, but the fun and playfulness as well.
I'm keeping this book, and I plan on checking out the others by this author to see if they are all this good.
