One evening, when Lady Emma Avery, popularly known in the ton as "London's Least Likely to Misbehave" is getting drunk with her two best friends (who are also wallflowers who will be meeting their intended husbands in later books). While she isn't noticed by most of polite society, Emma does have a ...
To start, this is my first Maya Rodale book, and I really enjoyed it! (I'm actually kind of confused why it's received such bad reviews? I thought it was lovely! But to each their own I suppose...) I originally picked it up because I LOVED the cover! Isn't it gorgeous?Blake and Emma were endearing c...
Fun enough. I love HR stories about wallflowers so this fit that bill. And there was enough wit and steam to keep me going. I did feel it got a little repetitive in terms of the whole "am I good enough for his love" whineyness. But overall it kept me engaged and enjoying myself enough for a solid ra...
I am a bit split on this one. It started out charming and witty. I loved the heroine, loved the hero. I was intrigued by his invention of the "Difference Engine", for which he was trying to get investors. It was nice to see him fall in love with the proclaimed Wallflower, one of "London's Least like...
I adore story's where shy wallflowers capture the unlikely attention of roguish men, and this has to be the most surprising way to do it! Giddy from the influence of one too many bottles glasses of sherry and morose over their fourth season, Lady Emma Avery, along with her two best friends and fello...
I tried. I got a little less than 40 % of the way in. I'm bummed I spent that much time on it. Trite characterizations, and admittedly, the wallflower trope is one of my favorites. As a reader, I tend to be harder on books that use tropes I really love. I want it to be special. Or fun. Or Interestin...
If you're in the mood for no angst, quick read, and if it's cheap (this is a must), then there are worse ways to spend a few hours. cons-If historical accuracy is your thing, this is not your book. The 'movie-like' scene shifts. One minute I'm in a ballroom, the next I'm in the Duke's bedroom, then ...
Needs to be slashed with an editing pen; many redundant scenes and dialogue. Pretty much the run of the mill regency duke story, with a few cute pretty acts and colloquy. Read like the author's first book (it's not, but the first I've read by Ms. Rodale), there's something there but very infantile...
