Boring and bland. Bloring. ( )

Actually the third in a series of three books, I read this one first because it's the one my library had. Now I'm going to have to try and dig up the first two....

I'm a sucker for books where the hero/heroine is an author, and really enjoyed the scenes where Lettie was working on her latest scandalous novel. The whole "you can be my socially accepted mistress and it will help out your school for young ladies" bit was more than a little far-fetched, but by the time it came around I liked the characters so much I was willing to overlook it. A fun read. ( )

Letitia Boyce is certainly unconventional. Rather than follow her mother's wishes and join the husband-hunt, Letty decides to open an equally unconventional seminary for well-born young ladies. The last thing she wants to get involved with is her younger sisters' current escort Lord Seton Rayne.

I really liked Letty. She's very clever, a talented writer, and wants much more than to be some man's arm-candy. But just because she doesn't want to be stuck in a very limiting gender role doesn't mean she's not interested in experiencing the joys of courtship and a relationship (emotional and physical) with a man. And I can identify whole-heartedly with that.

There's nothing I can point to particularly that was bad about this story. But despite the great heroine, I never connected with the hero, and I just wasn't drawn into the story.

More at my blog. ( )
