Review: prefect blend of good writing, and attention to details

I LOVED this novel! From its witty dialog to the two main characters, What Not to Bare was a prefect blend of good writing, and attention to details (although the authors use of dialog is a bit more modern than you usually see in a Historical Novel).I enjoyed the fact that Charlotte and David were not written as "perfect" characters. In fact, Charlotte's nickname was "The Abomination" due to the way she dressed. Both of them were used to having people judge only  their outside appearances, never truly getting to know them, which (to me) made them the underdogs from the start and I couldn't help but root for them. There was enough unexpected dialog, twists, turns, and characters you simply wanted to throttle yourself, that kept the story moving and the reader engaged.Overall, I found myself laughing with them, crying with them and holding my breath as I turned the pages unable to stop reading until I knew if their love had indeed survived the odds (and their personalities). This was one of those novels that was so humorous, and so absolutely charming that you couldn't help but enjoy it!I would definitely recommend this novel, and am looking forward to reading more from this author!
