This was a fun read and I absolutely adored everyone's relationships. Family, friends, and romantic; it was all brilliant!

I've liked Colin from the beginning of the Arrangement series, so it was fun to read a book from his perspective. The story, however, reminded me greatly of the previous book (the one with Duncan and Annie). The plot was strikingly similar... Girl is in an extreme sort of situation that makes her feel like she's either unfit or unworthy of a man's affection and attention, even though said man is maddeningly in love with her. But have no fear! Everything ends up the way we all know it will, so can ya please just speed it up a little bit? I will say that overall I liked the story, but there were some parts that dragged on and on, and probably could have been taken out entirely without drastically changing the plot.

3.5 stars

Married to the Marquess is my favorite in this series but this one comes in a very close second.

Loved this latest book in the Arrangements series. This book focuses on Colin. Though he appears carefree, Colin is hiding a broken heart that he has carried since he was 17. Susannah regretted hurting Colin, but was forced into marriage to save her family. When her husband dies, Susannah flees to London trying to escape her past. Unfortunately Colin is in London, and when Susannah appears out of nowhere, he is determined to not let her escape again. Though Susannah still loves Colin, she worries that her secrets will destroy them both.

A great fifth book in the series! It's a clean, fast-read, Regency style romance. Really love this series and am looking forward to the next book.
