Publisher's summary

For a proper lady of the ton and the improper lord she’s mad for, love becomes an adventure in a rapturous and romantic romp by USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell.

Alexandra Bradbury and Dallin McQuoid are neighbors who couldn’t be more different. She’s prim, mindful, and skittish of social improprieties. Dallin is slightly scandalous, boisterously charming, and unbothered by gossip. On an unexpected night of magic forged under the stars, they discover what they do have in common. Could theirs be a rare love match that might last forever?

But everything changes in a heartbeat: a death in the Bradbury family, financial ruin, and Alexandra’s betrothal to a wickedly wealthy marquess. Alexandra is expected to do what’s best for her family, regardless of her heart.

Until another crisis arises, and the dutiful daughter must embark on a journey with the waggish lord across the street to prevent a catastrophe for both of their families.

Along the road, will their stars finally align?

“Simply stated, author Christi Caldwell is a master of the historical romance genre in general, and the Regency Romance subgenre in particular. …brought vividly to life in an extended theatre of the mind presentation deftly narrated by Timothy Campbell—making this fully entertaining story a highly prized pick.”Midwest Book Review

Just too repetitive

Narration was good but the story was repetitive and lacking depth. No character development to speak of.

It was okay

I didn’t like how it started. But once it got more towards the middle, I really enjoyed the book.

Beautiful story

This is a wonderful story about a great couple. Loved the characters, the story line and the ending. I especially loved the wonderful narration that added to the story.

Basis of plot

Male character was too weak. The ending just happened. Nothing was resolved. Very disappointing. Narration was fine, and the plot had possibilities, but were not realized.

Predictable. A love story for the masses.

Tim Campbell’s performance was excellent, as usual. The story and characters were charming but so predictable that I skipped ahead in hopes that something surprising might happen.
