Review: Good for a few hours escape

I gave it four stars as it depicted a horribly gray picture in my mind of a bleak, unforgiving landscape, hard, cold stone walls of the home and stuffy, pretentious relatives.  Freddie is delightful and very naive but I felt Lord Stacks was too stiff to really feel all the emotions and reactions attributed to him.  Why is he so wicked?  There are all the references to it, innuendos but it is never really developed.  Other women certainly want to marry him regardless of his 'past'.  So, it's a long read until the final few pages where all is finally revealed and solved.But, it was a nice break from realities of life to escape to for a few hours.
