Where to begin... Well thought out and executed superbly. Jade Lee never leaves me wanting with any of her series. Lord Mavenford was quite overbearing holding Gillian to the same standards and strictures society set for him. But as he saw that it was hard for himself to keep with propriety he should have eased up a bit on her knowing it would be a little harder. I mean with her not having grown up in society the way he had. He wasn't prepare to be an Earl, he was a second son, yet he had to learn as well. Lord Mavenford had me questioning his common sense for a while though. He should have been realized that she was an imposter from the start. Too many inconsistancies in her stories and how she interacted with the help should have said it all. The hero and heroine's dry wit and sense of humor was was hilarious. And that mother of his was truly a piece of work. I realized that she had to know from the jump that the ward was not whom she said she was. I mean it was the mothers sister child, so she would have seen some type of resemblence immediately. I felt the countess was giving her just because she liked her and felt the need to initiate her not only into society but into the family as well. Gillian, well, she was a real handful. She really tried the hero's patience on purpose with just the right amount of willfulness and independance needed to make her believable. But she was a bit sit not realizing that the rules being set upon her were in fact for very good reasons. It was as if she had no rationale at times, no common sense. Overall this story really held my full attention and got the read it deserved. Outstanding!!
