I'm not quite sure what to say. It started off rather cute. I enjoyed the interactions between the hero and heroine. Quite a lot of it was rather funny and I loved Xanthe and Miles as well as Phoebe.

The heroine spends a great deal of time being angry at the hero but their reactions to each other were great...

...But for some reason it all started to get annoying around 60%. I started to get annoyed with Phoebe's anger. I started to get annoyed with some of Xanthe's* magic... I wanted to see some "romantic" interactions between the H/h. I wanted to see more long glances and...I don't know but I wanted more!

All in all, it's a cute Regency romance and rather funny.

*Note: How funny is it that the fairy godmother is named Xanthe! (
