Title: Almost too silly for words
Product review: When the nasty OTT villain is the most interesting character in a Regency romance, you know the book is in trouble. The hero can think of nothing but himself and his masculine pastimes, nevertheless the heroine has loved him since childhood. They decide to marry, but first she wants a 'Season' in London. Then the ridiculous begins, with the hero dressing up as his own grandmother in order to provide the heroine and his own sister with a chaperone. Oh, groan upon groan. Well, perhaps I'm not being entirely fair, for there are some funny moments, but the plot is so shot through with holes that it's infuriating. The ending is even more preposterous than anything that went before, and that's saying something. I'm afraid that even though the villain is fairly interesting, his motives and machinations are thoroughly distasteful, and leave a very queasy feeling. Not a book I would recommend to anyone.
