I received a free copy and had just finished a longish novella set in a similar time period and setting by an established author.  That book was very much just ok so I really didn't fancy reading this when it flicked up on my Kindle.  I think I may have even accidentally opened it so I gave myself the 'I'll just read a few pages' check and ended up reading the book in one several hour session.The characterisations were better than average and whilst the story had little action in it, it held my attention throughout.  Unlike  many ebooks, I did not find myself skipping chunks of prose.  Both the conversational aspects and relatively sparing prose were well written.  I don't know if the book has been edited since previous reviews were written but I didn't find grammatical mis-steps distracting.  On that score, the book was better than most ebooks found on Amazon.It is a light romance but it must be stressed that it is not particularly romantic. The initial intimate scene was really just a booty call and the ultimate resolution to the book to my mind left something to be desired. If I have a criticism it is that the author may have worked a little too hard to be convincing about the blinkered blindness of the equally stubborn and independent protagonists.  All in all, this is a fairly slick and engaging read but it may appeal more to those who like a somewhat sexy, bantering dynamic than hearts and flowers.
