Title: Don't judge Julia Quinn by this book
Review: A regency romance about a girl who comes to stay with her cousins in the country and meets an intriguing, war-damaged man. They face obstacles such as his guilt and an old enemy back for revenge.My first Julia Quinn book was The Duke and I, which is part of the Bridgerton series. It is a wonderful, well-written book and I was expecting this one to be the same. Sadly, it fell decidedly short of my expectations. Grammatically it was fine, but plotwise it was a bit thin and forced. Some of the things the characters do and say are absurd and just silly. Fortunately, this was written years before the Bridgerton series and Julia Quinn's writing has dramatically improved. If you want to read a Quinn book, start with The Duke and I.Still, if you don't expect too much, this is a fairly entertaining book and if you're desperate for something to read, try this.
