This was a perfect ââ?¬Å"take me out of the real worldââ?¬Â? read!
Diana was such a strong, independent, fun and at times a bit quirky, heroine. I loved that she was able to step away from society�s conventions even as she made a place for herself among the ton. Her engagements with Geoffrey were so much fun.
Geoffrey was a big, burly, hero with a bit of grumpiness to round him out into the type of hero I adore. Especially when it�s apparent he is attracted to Diana. The moments when she was correcting him for his boorish ways, especially reading it from his point of view, were so cute.
The chemistry between Geoffrey and Diana sizzled from the first moment they met and things between them continued to sizzle even as their relationship grew. The conflict felt real and added some angst but nothing too heavy.
There were several scenes where this author showed her knowledge of what certain events and situations required. While this can sometimes bog the story down, that was not the case here. It was all included in a way that kept me intrigued and happily following along. I loved it all.
