I read this book back when I was a teen in the mid 90's. The story stuck with enough that 12 or so years later I saw the old book on a auction site and had to bid on it! Made me laugh all over again. It is a historical romance, set back during the American Revolution. Even for being a thicker older romance it is a fast read. The sex scenes are more funny then super hot melt your undies sexy, but they are meant to be that way. LOVE this book and I am not big on pure romance type books, I prefer mystery/thriller, cop/serial killer, or paranormal books, but this one is a great must read for anyone who enjoys a little action, a few laughs, and a lot of romance!
