A delicious Regency read!! Engaging characters and an entertaining plot line. Nice amount of steam to keep the story popping!

I love a lively historical with all the pomp and circumstance! Really enjoyable read!

A fun series. ( )

um...well it was funny, but the story dragged a bit. I kept thinking...come on-Get on with it already! ( )

My second Victoria Alexander book. I really enjoyed this one. Her trademark lively dialogue was laugh-out-loud funny in many places. A very cute story of mistaken identifies. The secondary characters really added to the story. Nice book! ( )

I was disappointed in this third novel in the Last Man Standing series. The character development didn't seem sufficient and the secondary characters were not as engaging as in the other novels in this series. ( )

Delightful and enjoyed it thoroughly the first 2/3rds. Then it seemed like the same ideas were recycling and I scanned for the remainder of the story. ( )
