So Book 3 in this series intrigued me, so I decided to go back to the beginning. Each book is a different member of the Foxbrooke family but it's always good to start, well at the start! 

I loved Libby! She would do absolutely anything for you. Most definitely the sunshine in this story. I loved her story with Henry. How they met, and how they fell in love. Who doesn't love a fake boyfriend/girlfriend story? It always wins me over. Playing on the regency theme of Elizabeth Bennett and Mr Darcy just gave it that bit extra as we watch the inner turmoil and love, all through a contract. Throw in your "bad guy" with an absolute douche of a guy and you are on to the winner. Man, he was a douche, a low-life sponger too. I was screaming at Libby to see right through him.  

Henry's family are just a scream, I'm not sure I could live in their set-up but I loved everything about them and it. It was hilarious, although I wouldn't want to be woken with my cuppa like that LOL. I loved Estelle and I can't wait to read more about her! Gram Gram what a hoot, and nothing gets past her. Everything just worked for me. I did listen to the audiobook and I do have to say, I didn't like the way Libby was voiced, her voice did sound too childish so it did put me off a bit. But the story was strong enough to carry me through as I fell in love with the characters Can't wait for the next steamy, and boy these are steamy rom-coms!
