Review: Think Downton Abbey a 100 years earlier

The story is set in the early 1800s in aristocratic England.  A drunk 20 year-old aristocrat insults a 15 year-old aristocratic female and she punches him in the nose.  She develops an intense hatred toward him.  He goes off to the West Indies for 8 years and reforms himself.  Upon returning to England where he is about to inherit a title, he sets about trying to change her mind about him.  It is a bit awkward because his sister is married to her brother."Seduction" in the title is too strong a word.  "Wooing" would be a more accurate description.I was thinking for the first 60% of the book that it would be one that I could suggest to my teenage granddaughter, but in the last 40% there is considerable explicit sex.  The sex is appropriate to the story and most adults will handle it fine.
