This was just what I was in the mood for- light-hearted, witty, with a nice helping of (clean) romance. This is not a particularly accurate portrayal of the Regency period, and things go down better if you dive in with that expectation. There were a few typos here and there, a little bit of repetition at times, and a few story telling devices and plot points that were a wee bit awkward or a bit confusing/unnecessary. The main characters also had a tendency to be a bit maddeningly dense from time to time, though they do at least admit it themselves. That said, the writing often sparkled with a pleasant and airy wit, the characters were terribly likable and deliciously flawed (without being overly dramatic or even remotely tragic), and the characters had convincing chemistry. All in all, I consider it an enjoyable romp.
