That's pretty much what it comes down to really. I really liked the book up to the point where we found out his secret. It was full of all the things I like..witty banter, great female lead that I could relate to, and lots of humor. In fact there was one scene where Iris's family put on the play...

I read a lot of romance and I've read a lot of romance from the '70 and '80s so when I began hearing of a "secret" that was throwing everyone into a frenzy in this story, my imagination went wild.

I love this historic romance writer. Since I read one of her first books, How to Marry a Marquis, in 1999, she’s been on my automatic to-buy list. I liked this novel too, but I’m torn about it. The good stuff: The author has a wicked sense of humor. Some scenes, like a play staged by a bunch of th...
