This author managed to do something that is very difficult.  So often the heroes of these type of stories come off to be mean spirited and a downright bully.  Not so with Andrew.  I am a fan of the old fashioned historical romances that include an over the knee spanking, but I don't like cruelty.  Andrew is quite sexy, funny, witty and caring of Cici.  He is so protective of her, and he has a lot to worry about with a hellion for a sister-in-law and a former mistress that threaten the couple's happiness.  Cici is such a sweet heroine, fond of books, a typical bluestocking who has lived in her "prettier" sisters (perhaps physically more attractive, but has the soul of an evil shrew) shadow and it has affected her self esteem.  Andrew does not take advantage of this but does everything he can to bolster and encourage Cici, in spite of being somewhat tricked into the marriage.  I enjoy Regency and historical romances, so I have not read the authors other books, but I loved this one and read it very quickly.
