Title: Respectable Regency
Review: The Rake's Reward has a fairly common story line, one that I have found in several other books recently. Girl is sensible, intelligent and due to progressive-thinking parents, uncommonly well-educated for a 19th century miss. And girl is an accurate description of her age. Man is older, worldlier (and world-weary), and excels as a 19th century version of 007, under the cover of a frivolous playboy. All that aside, the hero and heroine are likeable characters, and the insertion of the evil Marquess element enlivens a what would have otherwise been a dull and routine first half.I can't say I'd consider this book a must-have, but it was an enjoyable and entertaining read. This was my first foray into Mary Kingsley, but I don't think it will be my last.
