I was really torn on how to rate this story.On one hand you have a tale of romance against the odds, murder (and multiple attempted murders), gypsy life and Regency splendor colorfully and seamlessly woven together. The H & H are naturally likeable (especially after you get to know Ian).On the other hand you have an over-the-top villian, secondary characters that start off strong then disappear, the predictable demise of the baddies, a heroine who (of course) has been trained to use knives and guns, which comes in handy when she has to save her husband's life -- twice, and no epilogue (whatever happened to the oft-mentioned honeymoon trip? more children? settling in without the threat of the "nicked in the nob" mother? Charlotte? etc. etc.).Too much was left to the imagination at the end; it felt unfinished to me. That said, it was an enjoyable story in other ways.
