Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 02 5, 2014
Four varying novels for a month that might be better spent with warm coffee, your favorite chocolate and staying inside snuggled up.  (Yep, I'm in that region getting hammered with winter!)  Regency romances are intriguing as well as highly entertaining because they point to a period of really significant social and cultural change.  Class, defined by wealth and title were being torn asunder as Great Britain engaged in the longest war in it's history, the Napoleonic Wars from 1790s thru the fateful battle of Waterloo in 1816,  defined the waning years of George III and his son's regency until George IV officially took the throne in 1820.  Over this period of upheaval, the notion of marrying for Love took root, an emerging class of wealthy individuals by virtue of work rather than inheritance, families suddenly bereft of sons to take on titles.  Only WWI would have the same level of impact on British society.  So read, savor and enjoy some good reads from the most socially and culturally fascinating and defining ages of the common era.
