...a heart warming foray!

Reluctantly, the Honourable George Sinclair returns from India at his brother's command to marry. His brother the earl, Sebastian fears for his wife's life should they have more children. After four daughters and no heir in sight and Sebastian will not put the wife he loves in danger. It is up to George to produce the heir to the title. George, when he's not missing India, is smitten by the entirely unsuitable Lady Haywood and refuses to come to heel. He wants an show more affair with the languishing widow. The widow who has already buried five husbands. George's friends warn him off. They don't want him to joining the ranks of the regretful or possibly rewarded dead.
Both leads are determined and charismatic. George loves his brother and wants to do right by him. The thing is, the debutantes he might marry all have little appeal, the widow however does!
Lady Elinor Haywood doesn't want an affair. She wants love, marriage and children. George envisages Elinor as the mistress he spends time with whilst lack lustrely producing the heir and spare in a marriage of convenience. A clash is inevitable and delightfully understated.
Whither to then, for this most impossible liaison? What's it to be, duty or love?
Witty, heartfelt and very human in the telling. A very enjoyable read.

It was good but not exceptional. Certain parts were more enjoyable. her absolute insistence at staying unmarried was not very relatable. Neither were the actions he took to convince her

Some like it Charming is a Contemporary Romantic Comedy. It made me smile, grin, and laugh out loud. Both Mackenzie and Ethan are strong characters and easy to sink your teeth into. They both love a challenge and they both love to win. So their favorite thing to do is to 'One Up' each other. Loving each other is the furthest thing from their minds.
Just like Mr. Charming, (Ethan), this story will charm and beguile you. Megan Bryce did a fantastic job of creating show more realistic roles and environment. She took the two most 'Commitment Phobia' personalities in that setting and let the entertainment skyrocket.
Why 4 stars instead of 5?
First, my copy had some editing mistakes and I always take points away for that.
Second is the price. A 180 page read (quickie to me) for $6.99 on Amazon Kindle. It seems a little overpriced. How much is a story that will make you laugh so hard your face and stomach hurts from it worth? Hard to put a price on something that brings that much laughter and amusement into your world.
