General info

This is a bit of a cliche regency romance novel. Jemima is a 17-year old orphan girl whose guardian is the Earl of Southwell, a man who she has never met but who is extremely strict. When he forbids Jemima from going to London to begin her introduction to society, the adventure starts.

Things I liked

I generally like these kind of historical novels because they are easy to read and the language isn't too heavy. The story was good, even if it is a bit cliche. It was still great to follow and to experience Jemima and Marcus' love story. I wish finding a longtime partner would be this easy nowadays as it seem to have been in the good-old-days.

Things I didn't like

Well, I think there's nothing that I didn't like. I don't mind the cliche or anything. It moved a little fast since the Lord of Southwell travels so much so some months are skipped in the book but I don't mind that either. The ending could have been a bit longer but I still like it a lot.

Conclusion

All in all, this is a very enjoyable book that brightens up your day. I personally could not stop reading this book and when I wasn't reading the book, I was thinking about it so I guess I was totally hooked until the very end.
