Just reread this story after a reread of the wonderful Lord of Scoundrels (LoS) by the same author. The story takes place a few months after the story in LoS, and features an appearance by Bertie Trent, the dim-witted brother of the heroine in LoS. Bertie is a friend of the hero's and a cousin of th...
It is a funny light novella with a serious topic that I found very interesting. Women and medicine and altogether science in the 19th century is an enjoyable read. I would recommend it to all self-conscious and intelligent women out there!

This is a charming early Loretta Chase novella. The "mad" earl marries a woman who coincidentally wants to be a doctor (but couldn't be in those days). The story is serious and sweet and funny at the same time. It was great fun to see Bertie Trent, from Lord of Scoundrels, as the earl's best friend....
