Summary: Nothing to this book
Comment: I really enjoy regency romances. But I have to agree with another reviewer that this book had no substance to it, at all. It started with some original twists to the "marriage for convience" plot, but it never went anywhere. I never felt connected to any of the characters. While the couple is obviously supposed to be slowly falling in love, the author never showed me why they would. They were one demonsional characters. There was no progression that made sense to me. I would not recommend this book. And there were holes in the plot - at one point the husband plans to take the cruel brother to task as soon as they return to Edinbourough, but then he never does. And all of a sudden the brother "hates" his sister - and she never had any problems with him for all her life until the few months of this book - and this antagonism is never satisfactorily explained.

Summary: A fun read
Comment: This book is what I've come to expect from Patricia Bray's Regency stories-- a lighthearted comedy of manners that's just the thing to curl up with on winter's evening. The author has a knack for creating interesting characters that come alive, and then placing them in absurd situations.
Highly recommended.

Summary: A Quick & Light Read but Disappointing!
Comment: Although the story line was intriguing, I found the characters half-formed and they failed to capture my interest. I could not understand the scandal that just because she was seen leaving the solicitor's office she was forced into marriage. Why was her brother so cruel after living harmoniously for so long? The brother's mysterious and spiteful fiancée behind it all is never met.
I have found other Patricia Bray romances very enjoyable but this one had no substance.
