Recommended! (I hardly ever give 5/5 stars, so judge my 4/5 accordingly.) I originally doubted that I would find this flawed hero appealing enough to carry the story, but it didn't take long for me to get into it, and eventually come to like Val quite a bit. I also wasn't sure what to think re. Robin Caine, but I approve of the way that played out.I had no problem suspending disbelief except for the possibility of Val's returning to his own life/timeline (his proposed "reward"), which ~~SPOILER~~ doesn't come to pass -- fairly obvious, given the happily-ever-after genre ~~END SPOILER~~ -- because I don't see how that would have worked in terms of the Regency descendants' lives.Anyway, it's a very likable tale, well-told, and in a pretty good digital edition -- 'though the cover art does land between "E"____"ternity" (the first word on the summary page) both on my Kindle and in my Kindle for PC.
