Focusing on the relationship building for the main characters, that was a very slow burn romantic. There's a lot of details that all tie together but this & the sidebar stories within kind of weighed things down. There were times when the roles of secondary characters dominated instead of supporting the main characters. The "history" & locales are all interesting & add lineage understanding. I did get to know and like the main characters, understood their independent natures & heartfelt emotions

A great regency romance between Robert and Emmaline whose wit and banter back and forth made for an entertaining read. Robert enlists Emmaline help to find a wife, but he is on a mission to find a murder. Emmaline does not know what to do with the grumpy and intimidating man who does not want to learn to be a proper groom. I loved how the characters were very well developed and they had a thoroughly background story. This book had the danger, intrigue, and secrets that needed to be revealed.

This was a very entertaining love story. A death sets off an investigation of murder, the suspects being a nice and her aunt. The drama and different llor twists and turns were very interesting and engaging. Rhe often humorous and witty banter between the characters was delightful. I enjoyed not only one but two romances that occurred, and the ending was wonderful. I highly recommend reading!

About the author

Eileen Putman has written a dozen Regencies and Regency historical romances set in Regency England, the period from 1811-1820 when King George III was deemed unfit and his son was Prince Regent. It's a period ripe for intrigue -- England was fighting the Napoleonic wars -- and satire, as aristocrats, who set social rules aimed at preserving their class, encounter romantic love and other forces that upend expectations. Jane Austen captured those social dynamics in her brilliant work.
