Loved this first book of the series and am enjoying these continued stories in the entire series. I have only writing one critique. It's the constant use of the title, Ms. in her series. I found this in Wikipedia:"Ms." began to be used as early as the 17th century, along with "Miss" and "Mrs.", as a title derived from the then formal "Mistress", which, like Mister, did not originally indicate marital status. "Ms.", however, fell into disuse in favor of the other two titles and was not revived until the 20th century. The earliest known proposal for the modern revival of "Ms." as a title appeared in The Republican of Springfield, Massachusetts on November 10, 1901."I thought the sex scenes a little too detailed and the heroines rather promiscuous a little too soon in the marital bed for that period. Most ladies in that day were not quite as eager to try new positions or even French kissing, believing those kinds of behaviors something done in a brothel and not ladylike. I could see this form of sexual expression developing maybe later on in the marriage as the couples grew to deeply love one another.  Otherwise, I found myself totally immersed in the story lines of each book and love the characters she introduces in each new book. I couldn't wait to read more!
