Review: Scandalous fun for all

Although it has a great cover, perfect for the genre, I have to admit if my  lady hadn't raved about this I, being a guy and no fan of romance, wouldn't have read it.But I actually enjoyed it! The compact story, about a scandalous emotional roller coaster that overtakes a gentlewoman of society who is in love with one man and gets the hots for another one of royal birth and questionable character (the said scoundrel), is great for fans of Jane Austen, of which I am one, and comes complete with numerous detailed descriptions of women's lips which paint revealing pictures for the reader. Despite the historical inaccuracies (which the author is up front about in a foreword) and a decently executed switching in point-of-view between the three characters caught up in the love trine, I found the sometimes tongue-in-cheek humor to be entertaining and the novella to be an overall fun read.
