Review: A tumble in the hay...that's it
Rating: 3 out of 5

The author did a good job of portraying the era by way of settings and vernacular so I gave this story ***. If I had to rate the book based on the story line alone, I would give it **.The author makes it clear that Lady Babs is independent, popular, intelligent and firmly on the shelf (Babs's choice). Her chumminess with story's male characters, however, didn't quite ring true, especially in the scenes with Byron and Brummel. That aside, one of the story's biggest flaws was (**SPOILERS AHEAD**) Bab's single and tawdry coupling with the duke.The abrupt ending and crude sexual references was another deciding factor for the rating. It was an acceptable bit of Regency fluff, but I would not re-read nor recommend it.
