I didn't enjoy the follow-up as much as The Accidental Countess, the witty dialogue was missing and the story line and by-play between the characters was not nearly as evident. Not a bad read but could have been so much better.

If you are looking for a raunchy Victorian sex book, look elsewhere. This is a lovely story of how two people fall in love - play by play. It is touching, sensitive, and the character development shows that this author really knows how to write! A real, old-fashioned romance.

I loved reading about Cecily and Douglas' love affair. I like heroines who decide to experience physical passion even while resigning themselves to spinster life and the heroes who go crazy with jealously watching from the sidelines before stepping in to help. The subplot involving the mysterious diary was lukewarm, and I would have liked for Douglas' childhood background to have been explored more in depth so that I could have gotten a better picture of why he was the man he was and the fears he carried with him. I'd like to have seen more frequent lessons in more detail, too, especially toward the end when Douglas' heart was engaged. Still, an enjoyable read at 3.5 stars.
