Readers start Lord Somerton's Heir with a death. Sometimes a death is good and sometimes a death is bad. Readers are only given glimpses of others opinion on the person who died they are not show his actions. Fast forward a year and Isabel finds the heir who was once a soldier fighting Napoleon.I can understand the man of business searching and finding even speaking with the new heir and letting him know his change in status. What I can't understand is the dowager of the late Viscount searching or even speaking with this person. Yes, she had lots of compassion for others but where was the normal rules of not speaking with someone unless they were introduced by someone they each knew. This is my preference, it does not take away from this excellent written book.Most everything followed the `Old School' romances from the 1980's before publishers pushed to have sex involved by the third chapter. Yes there is one sex scene but it was very late in the book and did not provide details. Thankfully. Nothing wrong with sex in a book, but I enjoy reading about historical romances without the sex.Isabel keeps being dealt the hard knocks in life. So much has happened but she keeps pushing forward. I got the impression that she appeared weak to others without allowing her inner-strength to show.I really enjoyed this book. A nice refreshing change from historical romances being published today. The author was more concerned with developing strong characters with a great plot than the usual sex craved characters.The bunnies and I highly recommend this book.
