Smart heroine struggling for her "freedom" in Regency England coupled with a hardened rake (who might actually have a conscience?) leads to witty dialogue and a swift moving plot. A really fun, smart read!

I really enjoyed this historical romance. A young girl on the edge of adulthood, who's been raised by her 3 older brother decides she needs some rebellion and an adventure before she settles for a spouse. Her oldest brother secretly hires his best friend, who is a known womanizer, to watch over her and ensure she doesn't fall into scandal. ...and you can guess the rest.

I enjoyed this book a great deal, however, not as much as the third book of this series. The tension between Eleanor and Valentine was sometimes a nail-biter, especially on Val's part.

A fun light read. Humor and story line enjoyable. Not completely true to the Victorian era if that matters to you.

A well written historical romance. The h/h are cute and fun and their romance is paced pretty neatly through the book. Enoch captures the dialogue of the period and includes enough detail to ensnare the reader in the historical time.

If it matters to you, there is only one love scene in this book. The romance is well articulated but I much prefer Suzanne Enoch's contemporary books about Samantha Jellicoe to this. I have read a couple of Enoch's historicals, for which is is well known, but the lack of sensuality in the books is a disappointment, particularly in comparison to her contemporary books, which are very hot.
