I often download free books and more than half the time they rarely inspire me to leave a review. This book however, is worth leaving a word.The hero a typical regency hero: rich, unrepentant rake, self-absorb, and a bored aristocrat who is considered a price catch of every scheming mama of the ton.The heroine is what drew me more. She is an unrepentant outspoken lady of the ton and I like her more because she really impersonate her moniker 'dragon' well. However, the author presented her well because despite her dragon-ness, her fire rarely hits the innocents and she knew how to wield her power with discretion. Mostly, I loved her jaded view of the world especially since her opinion was formed through her own experience.The romance? Er, is there one? I love how the author centered the main character's story not on the 'romance' part but in how they view their society, each other and themselves. I like how open their eyes to each other's faults and strengths. Also I laughed, I gasped, I shook my head, and then I laugh some more at how the hero pursue the heroine and how the heroine made the hero walk the line.If the heroine was any other character, I would have thought she gave up easily on her resistance against the hero's pursuit but as her character is the no-nonsense-no-games kind of woman, I think her no fanfare acceptance is very appropriate to her character.Overall, this was a fun read, and at least a bit out of the common regency romance in how the story progressed. I will definitely look for this author's other books.
