I was disappointed, there is no other way to describe it. I was about to give this book a 3, solely cos of my love for Quinn and the last 30 pages...yeah. But hey I need to be harsh, if it does not work is does not work. It was sadly just ok (except for those last 30 pages that is.)What was my first...

Wow. I was so surprised I didn't like this. Just to check if I was merely in a bad or off reading mood, I paused for a bit from reading this and re-read a bit of "The Duke and I".

This review can also be found on Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell-blog.I wish I could upgrade the rating from suckity-suck to the theory-good-practice-not level, but I can’t. This book read like someone, after having written one historical romance too many, decided to fake it and throw together an endless...

This is one of the few books I have read by Julia Quinn where I didn't feel the main problem was just stupid. I also really enjoyed the three girls Anne oversaw.

I really enjoyed this book,the H/h although not my favourites ever, were endearing and lovely. I loved the fact they could tease and made each other laugh.But for me, the most amusing/hilarious parts, where how the 3 sisters, Harriet, Elisabeth and Frances, interact, just loved their relationship, F...

Once upon a time an English aristocrat called Daniel returned home from three years of wandering abroad. You see, he was hiding from another aristocrat who wanted to kill him. Ok, never mind. As soon as he returned he saw a beautiful girl. "She was petite, small in that way that made a man want to ...
