This is a fun read, at many times very humorous. I think it is a farce. If you are looking for romance, you will be disappointed, though. The heroine (Cora) is pretty silly. She believes that the hero prefers man yet she still marries him. She spends most of the story tripping and falling into all sorts of scrapes, yet when she marries, she runs the household with utmost efficiency. Ok... The hero (Lord Francis) spends most of the time pining for the woman that he loved and lost(the heroine of Lord Carew's Bride), then he realizes that he has fallen in love with Cora. In all, read it for its humor and Balogh's writing style, which is superb, but do not expect great romance or character development.

This is a great book. Mary Balogh is one of my favorite authors. I have a copy of this on my keeper shelf.
