The plot harkens back to a couple of her earlier books. But that does not really take away from the main and secondary characters of "Marrying Winterborne" in any way. Even with the self doubts and misconceptions our hero and heroine have about themselves and their fiancee, Kleypas still provides relatively well developed personalities for Helen and Rhys. A few of the secondary characters are just words on paper. But the Ravenel clan's antics and banter tells you that the twins are up for future books. In fact, the preview for the third book promises to bring back at least one of the Wallflowers, if not all four.

So. After reading most of her historical romance books, this book is in line with her earlier works. In some ways, it is cookie cutter (come on, what else do you expect from a genre book?). But Kleypass manages to maintain a high quality of writing, humor, and a cadre of personalities I don't mind revisiting again and again.
