pickI think this is a lesser known Heyer, but for me it is up there with the best of them. Romance, comedy and great characters. Totally delightful, but have you ever seen a less appropriate cover for a Heyer @LeahBergen ?

panIt was a slog. The author was trying to fit way too much modern messaging that the story felt disjointed and not the fun adventure I was hoping for. The parts that were fun were short lived and I needed more of them. If this was a modern woman dropped into the time period (a la Outlander) this could have been really fun. There was nothing wrong with the messages themselves, but the execution really bogged down the momentum of the story-2.5 stars.
