The style is definitely dated but if you like old skool romances that are not quite steamy but not fade-to-black, you'll probably like this one. There's an beautiful, klutzy ingenue, a super-rake, some ott shenanigans, and an unlikely setup.
A Regency romp, implausible, a bit crazy, fun while it lasts
Definitely a Cinderella story, wouldn't happen in real life. Too many coincidences, too many obstacles easily overcome.
