I don't typically read 'romance novels' however I tried this based on a recommendation and found myself to be pleasantly amused and entertained by the mischievous charm, cleverness, and excellent authentic period dialog and behavior of the characters.The historical setting really did take me back with the detailed descriptions, the tone of dialog and demeanor of the book cast.  I have not read any other books in this series so I thoroughly enjoyed the interesting twist of the captivating 'cad' in reality being the ultimate matchmaker or rather encourager unbeknownst to the marriage foot-dragging males who were the 'targets'.The plot and characters are well-developed, the focus on the relationships and the insights into each characters thoughts really endears you to each. I enjoyed the read and thought it well written and liked the fact that it was clean.
