This is one of Stephanie Laurens regencies, if you are looking for the steamy SL books this is not one of them. This is a sweet book about regency love.
Another great Laurens book...fun, humor and great romance in a historical.
I thought that the story was great. But I thought it came off that Bella wasn't all there. The other thing that was she no idea that she was pregnant. But her brother and her husband knew. Like I said its good story. It has its faults.
This is the first time I have read a book by this author and it was very good. Entertaining from the first page to the last. I can't wait to read more or her books.
Very satisfying Regency romance, might remind you of early Mary Balogh.
A fun read.
A lovely Cinderella type story, but the herione falls for the fairy Godfather!
A typical Laurens Regency in which a young woman in trouble is rescued by an ill-humored viscount, who thinks she will keep his sister entertained but of course falls in love with her himself.
After the death of her dear father, Georgiana Hartley returns home to England--only to be confronted by the boorish advances of her wretched cousin. Knowing no one, she flees to Dominic Ridgely's estate, hoping the nobleman will bestow a neighnborly kindness upon her.
The haughty viscount hears Georgiana's plea to find her a position as a lady's companion with thinly vieled disgust. A lovely innocent such as Miss Hartley subjected to that base existence? The very idea was preposterous. Instead, he takes matters into his own hands and introduces her to his sister's influence.
Suddenly, Georgiana is transformed into a lady who charms the ton with ease and draws a bevy of suitors at every turn. Everything is unfolding according to Dominic's plan...until he realizes that he desires Georgiana for his own...

It was entertaining, but certainly nothing to some of Laurens' later novels.
All Laurens books are good. enjoyed this one.
