This was a wonderful book, really engaging. Although kind of predictable, the journey was good, with lots of interesting details. I especially liked the scene of what it's like to be a gentleman calling in the morning. The nervous sitting around and awkward conversation with the family.

I couldn't keep the characters names straight, and often wasn't sure who was in a scene, until enough contextual queues were dropped. The book also ended abruptly, I don't think Hunter is comfortable writing about intimacy or courtship.
