This was a sweet regency romance. Freddie, orphaned and desperate to avoid an arranged marriage, pleas with her guardian to visit him. Lord Stacks, thinking Freddie is a boy, agrees. After an illness keeps her at his home longer than he planned, Lord Stacks and Freddie begin enjoying each other's company. Past secrets threaten their happiness and avoiding scandal seems impossible for the two lovers. I enjoyed this book and would read more from this author. The editing could use some touching up and there were times that the characters were truly annoying, but all-in-all I did like the novel and sad annoying parts were not nearly as drawn out as in some other Regency's that I've read. It was basically good for a quick read in the case that one isn't in the mood for a complicated plot line.Freddie and Lord Stacks, I would say, are too perfect. The only truly balanced character would definitely be be the valet, however, as I said, as a quick, mindless read, it can be good.
What do You think about My Lord Wicked (2011)?
I liked the story, but it seemed drawn out.
