Reviews

I love this genre, although Ms. Richmond went beyond the usual to add a mystery that made it even more interesting to read. Geoffrey and Lady Harriet were wonderful characters. Although young, Lady Harriet knew what she wanted and took the opportunities that she had available to get it- or him. But she didn't force it or use the sometimes typical 'wiles' of the era. She was honest and straight forward. Geoffrey saw her more as a friend's little sister, at first, anyway. The more time he spent with her, the more he came to see her quite differently, but still saw her as too young. Of course, as they worked together, he saw her maturity and strength of character made her the perfect match for him.
Loved everything about the story. Can't wait to read more of the series.
