Review: Lacks chemistry
Rating: 2 out of 5

Not at all like the others of her books available in Kincle format which I read first. This book fails on a number of fronts. The Earl of Hartleigh is like a paper cut out of the handsome hero, the only male character of any depth is his cousin Basil. Isabella is in theory my favourite heroine type - an older, more sensible female- but she fails to come alive for me. The romance does not work. I felt no connection. The book has glimmers of the wit that is in others the author has written but fails to deliver. The lack of steamy sex scenes is not a problem here given the lack of chemistry between the lovers. A penny dreadful - Please do not take this as a epresentative sample of Ms Chase's work, you will miss out on some wonderful stories if you do. If this is your first Chase book to consider buying please move on!
