Regency romance. Good, interesting characters, their ideas, motivations, & thoughts. Excellent, realistic dialogue.No sex at all; not a single scene. Recommended.

This author's first novel is absolutely great! Although there are no sex scenes....no, not even one....it is a great story and kept this cynical reader interested to the last page. Highly recommended!

This was the first book written by this author and I was very pleased. Great story line with strong characters. I will definitely look for for by Barbara Satow.
