I’m still on my historical romance kick and this book is another winner.  Set in the regency period (yawn), I didn’t have to wade through all the boring stuff about London, the ton and parties.  This story was about a man and a woman that meet under unusual circumstances.  What happens next is funny to me.  Lady Arbella thinks that Mr. Carrington is the stable manager and he doesn’t correct her.  Bad thing is, Mr. Carrington is actually the man that her brother has arranged to married.  Now, don’t go rolling your eyes.  The story picks up at a rather fast paced and I was so sorry to see it end.Mr. Carrington or Oliver is supposed to meet his wife at a Christmas party.  He almost got married once and vowed that the next time wouldn’t be for love but for the heir.  Never in his mind did he think that he would fall in love so quickly with Lady Arebella.  Knowing that she had a love for horses, he brings one to her as a wedding gift.  *swoon*  I’m not a horse person but the man did know how to win his lady’s heart.I felt bad for Lady Arbella in the beginning.  Marrying a man that she’s never meet and then to find out he is slated to become a duke.  The scene with her brother was priceless but at the same time, she was not going to take this laying down either.  Upon meeting Mr. Carrington (Oliver) all she can think about is being married to an old man and being a broad mare.I’m telling you while this is a historical, there is much humor in the dialogue.  I was giggling in the stable scene and when they got to the shelter I was rolling.  The pacing is quick and the book only covers a few days but I connected with Lady Arabella and Oliver quickly.  My heart broke in the second scene with Lady Arabella, her brother and Oliver.  Will it work out?  You will have to read it to find out.Again, this is my 4th or 5th…maybe 6th historical from Entangled and they have been spot on.  Dear readers, you must find them, read them, and devour them.  You will not be sorry.  :)
