This is the first book I've read by Sherrill Bodine and it won't be the last! Several of the characters are so interesting I'd like to go back and read the previous book to find out more of the backstory. The relationship between Kat, her twin brother Jacko and sister Mariah is very loving and fun to read about. Their Godmother, Lady Tutwilliger, is a treasure who adds humor to the story.Jacko, Lord Thistlewait, decides he's had enough of his Godmother's matchmaking and he's going to head to the continent. Kat is worried he'll end up in another scrape, so goes to the Inn where he's staying to convince him to return to London. She falls asleep while waiting for Jacko in his room and a very drunk Jules, Count Saville, mistakes the room for his own and they are found in a compromising position. He proposes to Kat out of honor and they all decide to continue the journey to France to visit Jules' estate. While on the boat, Kat and Jacko save an heiress from the evil clutches of Sir Edward Tigge and he vows to seek revenge!  Will Kat cry off from her engagement or will she and Jules fall in love? Will Kat keep Jacko from getting into another scrape? Will Sir Edward exact his revenge?Delightful characters, several scene locations between France and London, swashbuckling duels and a brisk moving plot make this a totally enjoyable read.  The writing flows nicely and is very well edited. This a clean novel, but with plenty of sparks between the H/h. You'll be rooting for their HEA!** Clean romance with nothing beyond kissing.Did you find this review helpful?  If so, please vote "yes."
