Funny, humorous, preposterous. This amazing romance manages to be funny without being fluffy. It borders on the madcap, but doesn't cross over, making the characters likeable and accessible. Top-notch!

Plot: Twisted, convoluted, and unlikely. The beginning is great, unexpected.
Male Protagonist: Tall, dark, and handsome, but unavailable on the marriage mart. Jordan Holloway, Earl of Ashbourne
Female Protagonist: Innocent, gorgeous, and naive. Miss Annie Andrews.
Setting: London and two house parties
Other characters of note: Lily, Annie's sister, Viscount Medford, the meddler.
Quirkiness: Gretna Greene is a recurring theme, with great effect. Rehabilitating a fox with injured paw.

Very good book. Anne was a bit childish at times, but she grew up by the end of the book. I loved Jordan! And Arthur was an absolute twit. I couldn't stand him. Medford's book sounds like it'll be very interesting. ( )

This is a historical romance set in London 1816. The main characters are Annie Andrews and Jordon Holloway, Lord Ashbourne. Lord Ashbourne is asked to watch over Annie while her sister is away on her honeymoon. Annie continues to be handful throwing herself at Arthur Eggleston and trying to elope to Gretna Green. Lord Ashbourne takes her to his country home to keep her out of trouble. They of course fall in love. It was a page-turner toward the end. It was steamy at times. Some vocabulary included that I was somewhat unfamilar with included tryst, chit, ton, rake (hell), deuced. I enjoyed it. This book was "won" through Shelf Awareness Author Buzz; I was provided a free autographed copy. ( )
