I really loved this book. It was a nice fun read. HR but without all of the missishness, and how innocent, beautiful, young and pure the girl is and the uppity snobbery. Beth gave as good as she got. It was also funny, which I enjoyed alot. It had good, hot, sex scenes in it, but it wasn't based soley on the sex. Loved Robert and Beth and the way they teased each other. It felt real. It made me smile. I love when a man can be playful and act silly without constant aggression. Robert was awesome. Some can't forgive him for blowing up at Beth initially, but I'd be mad too for the secret she kept, with their previous history, and the fact that it was no small secret. Most women would go ballistic if the shoe was one the other foot. And the fact he tried to give her a way to be honest with him and she still lied would have me livid as well, but they worked through it as adults without holding a grudge, so kudos. As for it not being historically correct. Who cares?! As I mentioned initially, it was nice to have a HR without all the BS. People act like women back then would never do something as daring as Beth did. Give me a break. Yes, most ladies were proper to the core, but not all, and it's a fictional story, so does it really matter? Usually I can only tolerate one protagonist or the other in a story, but this couple together were great. I wish it was longer, but I guess that will motivate me to read the rest of the series.
