Lady Henrietta's Dilemma is the 2nd book in the Lords of Sussex series.  I was given the opportunity to read the 1st book as well.  The author is doing a great job with these books! Something that I always love to see in a series is that each book gets progressively better. This definitely happened here!  Part of it could be the tie to characters that you were already introduced to in previous books or maybe it's the twist in the story..  Either way, I loved the second installment!Lady Henrietta -- what a lady!  At first, I worried that her timidness and seeming disdain for any physical contact would make for a poor romance novel.  How would we get past this?  Thankfully, Lady Henrietta bursts the bubble of a shy timid creature and shows the world that she is a person of her own right and has thoughts/ideas of her own.  Bravo!While we are shown a bit of Lord Vaughn's character early in the book, even I was shocked at the depth of his behavior. You sir, need a sound thrashing!!I was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of the "Prince" and couldn't wait for 'Etta and him to be together!While this story mainly focuses on Lady Henrietta ('Etta), we do also get some glimpses into Lord Vaughn's mistress's life.  You can't help but fall in love with her story and plight.Overall, a great book to escape into!  While it takes place in a time of upcoming war, the military aspect was enough to peak the interest but not enough to drown out the romance! Lots of twisting plots to keep you interested and dashing heroes to thrill our romantic hearts!*I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.*
