Review: Satisfying and suspenseful
Rating: 4 out of 5

This book was well written and fairly original. It is a twist on the swapped gender theme, and it does this well by making the masquerade believable. It relies on the principle that people "see" what they expect  or are accustomed to seeing. "Johnny" had been a boy to everyone but her adopted parents since she was four years old so no one questioned her identity. The only thing that disappoints in the book is that the mystery of who started the fire that leaves the heroine an orphan, or even if it was really arson, is never resolved. But that is a minor point in and otherwise satisfying story. I recommend this book to those who like Regency romances with a little suspense and a suitably unlikeable villain.
