It sparkles with all of Dare's usual humour and wit, and the romance is hot, hot, hot. I started this on my way home from work one Thursday evening and had the whole thing finished that night. 
5 Star 
I couldn t put it down 
5 Star 
The main characters, Gabriel and Lady Penelope, are to die for I loved their first meeting so much. It was funny yet cute and sexy all at the same time Their story is beautiful 
4 Star 
I like this style of fiction always have since Georgette Heyer times and these series of novels are only reminding me of her but with a small diversion towards modern times the heroines are less missish and more feisty and not afraid to have sex with their suitors. 
I am also, always a sucker for stories with cute animals and hedgehogs in pockets are the best yet 
4 Star
