The problem is, no one can touch Georgette Heyer when it comes to clean Regency romances. She's the best, and few can live up to her. This was, as many reviewers have stated, a sweet romance--with the actual romance one of the least interesting aspects of the story! Gabriella was strong and good, her character consistent throughout the book. It was hard to understand why she falls in love with the duke (except for the fact that he is a duke)--their relationship was kind of matter-of-fact and he may have been the least developed character in the story. Still--it was a fun read.FYI: no sex, no bad language
