I actually liked all of the stories in this one.
Quinn's story was perfect. The Hawkins' story was exactly what I wanted to see. Her novella showed her true understanding of the series and the character Lady Whistledown. The other two were lacking.
It was cute, sweet, yadda, yadda. I want to give my kudos to Mia Ryan for having her leading man be shot in the head and have subsequent brain damage. If I had known that, I would have read this book ages ago.Do me a favor, anyone reading this review, if you know of books where the lead gets shot ...
What a great story! I laughed and cried many times! Such wonderful writing and really engaging characters!! I love this authors work!!Loved the interlocking stories!I am currently on a Regency kick and this one was terrific!!
