Cute historical about two folks who meet at the gambling tables at an inn in Scotland, and the discover that they have gotten oops married due to an unknown law, and then discover that maybe they bring out the best in each other. For #RippedBodiceBingo, can be used for Bath or property inheritance.

This #audiobook is good for today's photo challenges.

The male protagonist's #desire is to win enough money. Not out of #greed but to pay back his gaming debts.

The female protagonist's #desire is to find her father. #greed isn't her motive either, but gaining some station in life.

Don't know why she's still tired. She slept a lot yesterday. She wasn't even interested in breakfast. Neither are my kids, tried to wake them early, we wanted to go swimming. Both still sleeping. I'm dreading Monday morning, when both have to get up at 6 a.m. because school starts after the holidays.

I'm listening to the audio book of this #romance novel provided by the author. The novel was good.

TrishB Same here! I could still hear my daughter awake in the early hours.... 6y

Funny, charming, heartwarming, even annoying at times ?
There were a few things that got me on the "not a chance" side if disbelief but I'm willing to overlook for the sake of such an entertaining and enjoyable story.

People like to give grief because I read so much historical romance but really, it's not just about the always a happy ending or the complexity of the characters and society of the times. It's also plain fun to read about people getting in trouble for not knowing any better 😂😂

This is one of my first forays into romance, a genre I have long avoided. I loved Ridley's attention to detail, and to language. Reading this got me to thinking that, while romance is considered by many to be 'trite‘ and 'shallow‘, a romance writer's job is harder in some ways. These stories are more character driven than plot driven. They have to dig deeper in their characters heads.

I loved this story!! The H/H are flawed but redeemable and lovable. Hero with a gambling addiction and a heroine looking for a respectable reputation. Must read!!
