I loved that both Polly and Hugh are non-traditional romance characters: Polly is the mousy, somewhat plump bespectacled illegitimate daughter of a nobleman who's had a good upbringing but always with the reminder of her status in life-and the fact that her two older sisters are beautiful and she isn't Hugh is a representation of a reality of the Georgian/Napoleonic era.
Carla Kelly is quickly becoming my go-to author when I want an uplifting, sweet historical romance chock full of solid research, excellent characters, and heart-warming relationship building.Ībout a third of the way into this book, I realized it was part of a series, and I immediately purchased/downloaded the first two in the trilogy-and I plan on reading them now.
