Description
Miss Penelope Bryant was possessed of a practical nature. Therefore, to avoid certain disaster, she persuaded a dull but dependable Scots doctor to elope with her to Gretna Green. Likewise, Lord Kilmore had a pressing need to elope to Gretna Green with his remarkably pretty but terribly spoiled wealthy fiance?e. That all four should meet en route and agree to travel together was unexceptional. But Kilmore and Penny soon began to wish Gretna Green farther away.Tags

Sweet Regency. I picked it up and then had to finish it. It had a lot of humor and a very likable hero and heroine. I did wish that the book would have gone a bit longer to see how Kilmore and Penny dealt with the problems that their marriage would have to face. Actually this was picked up in a subsequent book -- Thea's Marquis.
