ilaurin's review against another edition
4.0
It was an OK story but it was not really evident why they were not getting together earlier and the love between the protagonists was not really felt.

"Strong-willed and intelligent, Miss Jessica Sutton-Drew enjoys championing worthy causes such as women's independence, much like her formidable aunt, Susan Peele, London's most daunting bluestocking, and regardless of other relatives' protests against such unladylike behavior. But Miss Sutton-Drew may have met her match in Sir Brian Gregory, a shockingly wealthy mine owner and local magistrate, who is also handsome, brilliant, and charming. Convinced that Sir Brian is guilty of any number of social injustices, Jessica resists his enticing flattery and flirtation. But can she cease her battling ways long enough to listen to her heart? Or will oncoming scandal ruin everything before she recognizes the truth?" (From Amazon)
A fun story! A romantic comedy set in regency England with a strong independent heroine and equally strong independent hero. The question is who will bend first and I had a fun time finding that out.

Less violent than another Scott book I glimpsed, but the characters were at times childish with their communication between each other. I liked the beginning, although the rest of the book just kind of faded from memory after a while.
It was cute!
