My review got chewed up by GoodReads. The pain is real.The short version: if you can get past the first 100 lackluster pages and lower your expectations, the book isn't too terrible. I hated the hero and the heroine for a good measure of the book. They didn't have an ounce of chemistry for those fir...
This is my first Lisa Kleypas, and it won't be my last. Very Heyerish with a bad-tempered rake who needs taming, and a heroine who refuses to be tamed. And a sub-plot that's the same. Quite enjoyable, with lots of historical detail. I like that it takes place when railroads were being introduced to ...
I’m pleased to have found a Regency romance where the feisty female protagonist is neither TSTL nor grossly anachronistic, and her love interest isn’t grossly misogynist to start. It was a fun read, and I liked having a couple of male protagonists who really just needed some responsibilities and som...
My thoughts on this can be summed up in two gifs: Enough with the drainage issues. The pig is cool, the pig can stay but having my hero and heroine spend more time apart than together was lame. I thought brother West was going to end up with the heroine! Oh my god I tried not to hate on th...
El gran retorno de Lisa Kleypas al romance de época no es para nada GRAN pero sí es muy RETORNO... retorno a los clichés, a la protagonista santa virgen de la cascarrabia que hace todo bien, al protagonista masculino "amo el amor de los marineros que besan y se van" y al no sé si debo pero sí que qu...
And Lisa Kleypas is back! Lovely virgins who need to be rescued. Experienced rogues with rough edges and knowing ways. One needs money, and the other one has money. Then there's the absent or lapsed chaperone and the private moment that is too private and much more than a moment. I'm sure you get th...

Before Reading : I am living for this book.I am all about it.All of it.All. After Reading : [spoiler] My 1500th GR read (TBH, I know I passed this number but with deleted fan fics, not logging all my previous GR reads, etc. the number's off) Whatevs. Celebratory AC Slater: [/spoiler] 4.5 Stars--It'...
My review contains spoilers and they're mostly my thoughts as I went with the book...Lisa Kleypas is one of those authors who have introduced me to the wonderful world of current day Historical Romances. It’s been quite a few years yet, for me, the appeal to her novels have never faltered. She’s one...
