I feel I must add my two cents worth to the rest of what's been said about this book. I was glad to see I wasn't alone in my thoughts and feelings about this book
I've read all of the books in the series so far and while this one was a good read, I was disappointed that the secondary characters 'took over' the story and the hero/heroine where pushed to the back ground. I thought even the notorious Miss Smythe, Viscount Motton's crazy aunt, got more page time then our H/H. The series is all centered around the same time period and some of the action in each book takes place at Lord Motton's house party. And from the sounds of it, Lord Dawson, the hero in TNB, was the driving force behind getting Motton to hold the party in the first place. I think the title of 'The Naked Baron' was a misnomer. Miss MacKenzie could have titled this book 'The Naked Uncle' and then save the story of Lady Grace and Lord Dawson for a novella since the page time they got was so minuscule in comparison.
On my personal rating scale of 1-4 stars, I gave this book 2.5 stars. I didn't really like it all that much, but I didn't really NOT like it either. I'm on the read 'The Naked Viscount' now.
