Harriet (Harry) and Julian have been friends forever, having grown up as neighbors. One day Julian asks Harry to marry him because it`ll help him get his inheritence quicker. Harry says no, knowing Julian to be a rake and assuming he would never be able to be faithful to her. She`s also a country girl while Julian loves the city.Julian proposes a wager where Harry agrees to marry him if he can avoid kissing anyone the next three months.This is a fairly short story and it`s also a low key story with no big enemies or huge misunderstandings. It`s, what we so rarely see in romance, the description of friendship turning into romance. Two likable people finding each other.The book was very well written and one couldn`t help smiling while reading. The characters were credible and the author didn`t overdo it on the inner dialogues. I could have wished the story was longer and I`m sure some readers would have loved for it to be more descriptive.This is not a story about sex or lust. It`s a story about love. And that makes it different from so many historical romances out there. I was surprised by it but I liked it very much.
