Review: Not so witty...
Rating: 3 out of 5

Here, being vulgar often masquerades as wit. It's a mystery as to why the grandmother keeps her daughter (the heroine's mother) around, in her house, because she's such a horrible person.At its heart, the novel is about a young couple getting to know one another and fall in love, but it's doubtful that the heroine would have been able to move about as she did unsupervised. The story is well enough, but it tries to be a historical romance while using modern sensibilities, and the two often don't go together.As another reviewer pointed out, this reads almost as a first novel. I'm not sure if it is or not. However, since it does seem to be a reissue as a digital version of an earlier novel, I think the author would have done well to do some significant revisions to improve the novel. While not absolutely awful, this book didn't impress me enough to seek out other books by this author.
