While it's just past Valentine's Day (March as I write this review), this novella is a charming delight that's worth a read in any season. It's refreshing to have a hero who is not a duke--he's a captain in the Navy and in search of a valentine for the wrong woman. The story unfolds at a gradual pace that makes the romance believable, and the side characters are all a delight--well drawn and integrated into the story. The addition of the heroine's past--she's the widow of a poet now struggling to make ends meet by crafting poems for courting sailors--makes her into more than the usual sort of Regency heroine.
