- Kathryn Caskie has background in marketing, advertising and journalism, she is a former magazine editor, TV producer, and copywriter for radio and TV commercials. She has long been a devotee of history and things of old, and when her family moved to a 200-year-old Quaker home in the Virginia Blue Ridge and Caskie became interested in 19th-century history. So it came as no surprise to her family when she took a career detour off the online super highway and began writing historical romances full time. She published her first novel in 2004

So, so boring. I can't even believe how boring this was.
Mmkay, right of the bat I have a problem. I wasn't aware any self-respecting Scotsman said "Dash it all".
The "rules" before every chapter are cute and funny but it seems to be taking me a long time to get into this book.
Oh how I really wanted to get into this book but I just couldn't. There just was no story here.
Annoying how Magnus says "ye" every time, just once say "you" Please! I know, I know, he is Scottish but saying "ye, verra, canna," seem to be the only time he resembles a Scottish man.
I felt like the author was so concerned about getting the setting right, Regency periord, she forgot about the story. Every regency cliché was in this story.
I felt as if this book was some super hot guy, damn fine to look at and you are excited to meet him, but then he opens his mouth and you are severely disappointed and you just want to say "Shush, just stand there and look pretty". I wanted this book to be good! I would have honestly gave it a F rating except for the fact the author did have an intriguing story plot, but simply did not execute it well.
The secondary romance involving Grace, Eliza's sister, and Lord Hawkmoor was forgettable. Grace came off as bitchy for most of the book and I can't even think of Lord Hawkmoor's first name; never knew him at all.
I honestly don't know how people liked this book (if you are one of the people please let me know what you liked about it ) maybe I am missing something here but I didn't find it funny or a fast-paced enjoyable read. All I can say is "Lud!" this book sucked and I will not be continuing with this series at this time.

About three triplets who are out to find the truth about their birth and who their father is.
They seemed to be under the delusion if that they could prove that the prince regent was their father they would be set for life. Er come again? Let me remind you that its supposed to be the 19th century. Being born outside marriage pretty much meant that you were considered a bit apart from polite society.
I doubt the prince regent would go "Capital! Three bastard daughters!" Being the case that their only evidence was a shawl :/
I also found the triplet idea too far-fetched I did some research and found only one instance where triplets were born and survived Then add that the tree sisters all have different eye and hair color...
