Thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed, with one giant caveat at the end. A cold, distant heroine who is in fact cold and distant, even after she falls in love, and has very good reasons for her coldness and distance. A hero who is a shallow, vain rake, who is in fact rakish and vain and as thoughtless as h...
It took the lady a long time to be awakened but what a great story and plot.

4.5 starsDon't tell my boss but I had to finish the last 50 pages surreptitiously at my desk this morning. I really loved this, although Martha's antipathy was daunting and lasted longer than I expected. Worth the wait - so nicely done, actually, and Theo is just adoooooorable. My only other quibb...
