Ahh so Anne Barton totally won me over last year with When She Was Wicked. Turns out she can totally rock a novella too. To All The Rakes I've Loved Before was sweet and sexy and had me smiling the entire time as a notorious rake literally lands, battered and in desperate need of care, on the reclusive heroine's doorstep after a harrowing attack.Stephen and Amelia were really wonderful. They've had innocent moments together in their past when she was hurting and in need of a friend and I loved that they were brought together once again when he needed her. They're very upfront and open--not hiding behind polite manners or keeping their thoughts hidden--and just put it all out there for the other and it's so refreshing and fun to watch. The steamy bits aren't over the top steamy but they're nice and intimate and perfect in all their inappropriateness.I loved pretty much everything about To All The Rakes I've Loved Before. The set up, the characters, the humor and sweetness between Stephen and Amelia who just bring out the best in each other. It's just a lovely little romance that'll leave you smiling.
