I love historical romance, especially those set in the regency era.  Granted, this novel did not have a ton a details to put you in the mindset of that time.  I still truly enjoyed it.  I liked the hero and the heroine, but I believe all the side characters is what made this a well rounded story.The sex scenes were hot, a bit hotter than most historicals.  They were not vulgar though and I do think they added to the story.  The heat level is similar to what you see in most contemporary romances.I do wish the mother-in-law Angie had been played up a bit more.  I love the evil mother of the hero plot line.  The reader is told many times that the MIl treated the heroine poorly! but we rarely seen it.  I wish the scenes had been written, instead of just stating that it had happened after the fact.  I also wish that had behavior had went past sniffing.  I mean really, it's rude but not over the top behavior that I love in book.I loved that she wrote the children with actual personalities.  A lot of times, kids seem to be card board characters in books.  The boys in this book had distinct personality.  I could almost see the youngest child as rambunctious little tot and the eldest as the closed off kid.  Great characterization.The book had a smooth writing style.  It flowed well and was edited perfectly.
