This storyline has been done TO DEATH…nothing really surprising about this story. I’m absolutely certain all other customers have read this book before just by a different author with different characters but the same story nonetheless. Honestly this book could have ended at chapter 3…she could have whisked off to Gretna Green with Neville well before Chapter 4 considering what her aunt has planned for her and how awful they treat her. I totally agree with another reviewer about the dialogue seem to basically repeat itself…just rehashing of the same thoughts…very annoying. Oh well…if you’re bored and need SOMETHING to pass the time by on a road trip..then by all means… I really enjoyed this 2nd book in the series! Daniel has been living a debauched life & his uncle has cut him off from funds unless he gets married & stops gambling, etc. Rebecca has been pretending to be crazy for 2 years because her evil aunt & uncle want to marry her off to an old duke. When Daniel & Rebecca meet at the ball, they are both desperately looking for someone to marry. Daniel starts climbing a ladder to Rebecca's window to get to know her & the plan is that they will elope. I loved seeing them getting to know each other & learning to love each other, in what was essentially a marriage of convenience, with a couple of attempted murders & some social navigating thrown in.
Entertaining read. Enjoyed the interaction between the hero and heroine: honest and humorous.
