Lillian Bowman soon learned that being beautiful did not outweigh her boldness as far as English aristocracy was concerned. Neither were here independent American ways looked upon in an approving way. Most disapproving of all this was Marcus, Lord Westcliff, who was most London's most eligible aristocrat - and also snobbish, overbearing and simply impossible. Yet, despite their despise for each other, whenever they touch, they are overpowered by their feelings for each other. But how could Marcus possibly marry a woman so unsuitable?
Shoot! I really, really thought this was the first book, but only a few pages in I already noticed that is was the second. By then, though, it was too late to stop reading it. I was too engrossed by the story! Unfortunately, I'm having troubles summarizing the plot - in fact, I was very close to just copying it off the back cover.
I can't believe I shied away from historical romance all those years! Lisa Kleypas' novels are funny! The storylines themselves might be absolutely unbelievable for everyone who has some basic understanding of manners and etiquette back in the day, but the books are still enjoyable. Suspending disbelief is a must, though. Other than that, Kleypas' books are wonderful entertainment for early morning hours or late evenings. And every other time you want to read something relaxing, not too brain-consuming.
