At first I thought my problem was that I was spoiled by finding Ms. Heyer first. But, then I realized I have read some good Regency short stories and novellas, this just wasnt one of them. I would have rather cut out the sex scene and replace it with more info on the Duke and his daughters relationship. It almost hints that she might not be his he thinks. Not sure. Much is vague. Just a few nods to Regency London almost as an afterthought as if to say it is RL and not contemporary. Usually I enjoy coming of age and finding love but this just felt stiffly written to formula with a race to sex. I prefer stopping outside the bedroom doors which is where I thought this did. But, I did not take off stars for my error just the errors in writing.
