Karin A. (Jerseygirltoo) - reviewed on 2/16/2013 + 453 more book reviews

I'm going to give this book just 3.5 stars, even though I liked it and will continue to read all Burrowes' books, without a doubt. It was a warm and sweet story, with likeable main characters, but there were no thrills, and not as sexy as some of her earlier books. This author likes to write hero-rescues-heroine-in-distress plots, but in this case, the so-called scandals and secrets that both of them had were flimsy and not all that scandalous(compared to the real dangers facing the heroine of "The Heir", for instance). It was just an excuse to contrive a marriage between them. That being said, I liked that they got married in the middle of the story, so we got to see them adjusting to married life together. And I love spending time with the whole Windham family, even if they're just sitting around eating breakfast together, and we get to see plenty of them here.
