Yeah, this isn't my usual sort of book. But I have to admit that I really enjoyed it, despite the romance trappings and some cluelessness from the protagonists. It was fun!

It took me a couple chapters to get into but once I did I found this book thoroughly enjoyable. I especially liked the parts of the book that took place during the Napoleonic time period. I found Jane a pleasant surprise, this book was actually not completely predictable. I found that I was wrong on a couple of things. I'm looking forward to the next books.

I really enjoyed this book! It's both a contemporary and historical romance, and it also has action, comedy and mystery. Basically it's everything rolled into one.

I could go on and on about every little thing I liked about this book, but that would take too much time (and no one wants to read a review that long), so if you like a good romance story (more than one in this book) and action/adventure then you need to read this book.

The Pink Carnation wasn't THAT bad. Although the heroine could have been a bit more of a planner, and the story went a bit too fast. It was altogether a very good book. What also irked me was that it the modern-day story only encompassed about 4 chapters! It is a good read for a plane trip or on a train, but not something to try to really delve into.

This was chosen for my works book club this month. I absolutely loved this! I was not expecting to fall in love with a historical romance novel. I tried reading Jane Austen once and it made my head hurt. This was written in a modern time so it was easier to follow I guess. But this also makes me want to continue reading the series.
