This was highly recommended in several places, so I picked it up. It's the first book I've read by this author. I did enjoy it. It was well written. The characters were fallible, but very likeable and showed growth. Their relationship seemed believable. The only thing I did not enjoy was the p...
I love the pretty dresses that grace the covers of many historical romances. I also hate them, because every book tends to look the same.

I randomly came across this book on Goodreads, read the summary and was mildly intrigued. Then - I saw the cover, complete with a blurb from Lauren Willig. That was enough to make me immediately obtain and read it. The social status of Penelope Brown, our heroine, is a difficult one. Her family beca...
