This was really cute. I loved the snark. ( )

Enjoyable Regency romp, reminiscent of Julia Quinn's Bridgerton series.

Tristan Carroway, Viscount Dare, has to marry, soon and his bride must have a good dowry. It's the best solution for his financial troubles caused by his father's mismanagement.

He has dependents aplenty, spinster aunts and younger brothers. He's focused on marrying Amelia, who wants a title and has an abundant endowment.

But then, his former flame, Lady Georgianna Halley, enters the fray. She thinks he needs to be taught a lesson and she should administer it.

Tristan would much rather marry Lady Georgianna, but will she let him? ( )

The prose was a little purple, and the failures to communicate were annoying, and both leads, Georgiana and Tristan, were just so vapid but it was generally fun, I liked Tristan's family relationship, and the whole was diverting enough. ( )

Started off so well, witty fun dialogue and interaction between the two characters. But good golly the middle and ending of the book was like wading through molasses in winter.
 
The heroine's trust issues with the hero appear and then reappear and reappear and reappear. Look lady, maybe instead of flipping the freak out immediately when a stranger relays some info you're upset to hear, perhaps instead, take a breathe and ask your dude "wtf, do you know what this is about?"
 
I can handle misunderstandings but not TSTL multiple ones. The hero/heroine had good chemistry, just not a supporting story. This should have been a novella. I was so meh towards the middle and end I sped-read. ( )

I thought this was a great book. Tristan and Georgiana had wonderful chemistry. Had some laughs and kept longing to read it. Just the way a book should be! ( )
