Review: 3.5 Stars For Second Book of Series
Rating: 3 out of 5

I thought there would be more of a focus on Hugh and Irene.  Instead the focus was on Edwin and Eleanor.  I was disappointed to encounter their "I don't know if he loves me" story line because it's a rather boring and formulaic plot device that should have been resolved in the first book.  Continuing it in this book was bad enough, but carrying it over yet again is annoying and tiresome and makes me reluctant to purchase book 3.  Additionally, the book is in need of editing as there are some distracting errors.That being said, I enjoyed this book and recommend it. The author is good at combining humor, romance and erotica.  The backstories involving parents/families are interesting and help the reader understand the characters' motives/actions. It's a good example of both the Victorian and domestic discipline genres. Although I'm a little disappointed I'll likely buy book 3 which will (hopefully) focus on the story of Wesley and Cynthia and keep the other couples in the background.
