Dolores F. (txdee) reviewed The Vicar's Daughter (Harlequin Historical, No 258) on + 17 more book reviews
A light but satisfying story of a nobleman whose upbringing made him a paragon of order and rules falling in love, very unwillingly, with a beautiful girl whose honesty and sweetness are coupled with a tendency to become embroiled in mishaps...often, and whose family is loving but uninhibited. Such a meeting of opposites is further complicated by the distance between his class and hers. Although there are serious events in the story, the emphasis is on the humorous and the overall effect is very sweet.
I enjoyed this one - had a few little spins on the typical historical romance that kept it interesting. The principal characters were also a bit more fleshed out than one would normally expect.
