Ten things you should know about this book....

1. Sebastian Grey is a devilishly handsome rogue with a secret.

2. Annabel Winslow's family voted her The Winslow Most Likely to Speak Her Mind and The Winslow Most Likely to Fall Asleep in Church.

3. Sebastian's uncle is the Earl of Newbury, and if he dies without siring an heir, Sebastian inherits everything.

4. Lord Newbury detests Sebastian and will stop at nothing to prevent this from happening.

5. Lord Newbury has decided that Annabel is the answer to all of his problems.

6. Annabel does not want to marry Lord Newbury, especially when she finds out he once romanced her grandmother.

Number 7 is shocking, 8 is delicious, and 9 is downright wicked, all of which lead the way to:

10. Happily. Ever. After.

I was anticipating loving this story as a light-hearted sequel to "What Happened In London". In some ways, that's exactly what it is - Miss Butterworth's author "Sara Gorley" strikes again in really awful (and yet fantastic!) gothic romances which make the interaction between the characters smile worthy. Yet this book deals with more somber themes in general than "What Happens In London" - the both the heroine and the hero are struggling with issues and Quinn briefly touches on women's rights (or lack thereof) in the era she writes in.

My one complaint about this book is that the heroine and hero waffle. I understand their motivations, I understand their logic, but they are both so clearly not okay with the situation she is placed in and flabbergasted that her relations would put her in this situation - yet reluctant to abandon the familial plans for her. I struggle with the on-again-off-again "I should, I shouldn't" aspect of the plot, even while I acknowledge that the reality of life at that time would have meant Annabelle would not have been able to simply ignore her family's plans for her, despite how despicable (or weirdly connected - there's a twist at the climax that I didn't anticipate) the villian is to Annabelle.

Olivia and Harry make quick appearances, but really Edward is the teaser in the book. Maybe there will be a book for him sometime? (Hint, hint, Ms. Quinn!)

I'm giving this three stars for story because it was 1) harder to pull me into, 2) a more frustrating listen plot-wise (Listen to Louisa already, Annabelle!) and 3) a little slower, yet heavier thematically than I was expecting. If I could give it three-and-a-half, I would because I do like that we get to know Sebastian-the-Charmer's more serious side and background and kudos to Quinn for not pretending that Annabelle could instantly make "the right choice".

To sum it up: Sara Gorley and her Miss Butterworth series made this book an entertaining read.

Not. your regular cheesy romance novel. There's some suspense, an absolutely nut case who seriously brings the crazy.0

Long but worth it.

Fluff... Lots of fluff... but I really enjoy the light heartedness that Julia Quinn puts into her characters. So I found myself smiling throughout the book - and sometimes that's just what I need! The plot is predictable but the quirky characters are just fun and the author ensures you really do care about what happens to them. A fun, pleasant read perfect when you need a smile.

My biggest problem with the book was the narrators voice for our Hero... it took me half the book to "listen through" the voice. He sounded like a popinjay - someone that lacked strength or intelligence. I didn't like it at all.

A fun and love filled story. you will have to wait it out with some drama thrown in. Women always seemed drawn to the "rake".

This was my first Julia Quinn book and I did enjoy it though she used terms that did not fit the time properly. If you are willing to overlook that then the book was very entertaining. I would have given the book a 4.5 if it was available but well including it here is just as well. The only thing I did not like about this book was the ten things JQ kept listing in the book. A bit silly especially since they were not all meaningful points. Nevertheless, If you like historical romance then this book is a good one to listen to.

3 things I love about you would have been better

PROS:
* This book is just so fun. Cute, lighthearted (for the most part), funny, etc.
* I have a soft spot for dark, handsome heroes that have such a marshmallow center (and aren't afraid to show it!).
*The heroine is someone who seems to love herself unabashedly.
* Rosalyn Landor, as always, does a stunning job narrating.

CONS:
*Because of the sometimes list format used, it's a little awkward to hear. Like What Happens in London, I think some formats are better read than heard.

Pure Fun

The storyline fell a little short in my opinion. The hero’s past, which wasn’t too thoroughly explained was a downfall. Then the explanation for the uncle’s hate for his nephew was almost… generic. My favorite character wasn’t the hero or heroine, but rather the grandmother. She was quite the character.

There are only two scenes that really left a lasting impression. 1. The dinner scene. 2. The grandmother to the rescue scene. I barely stifled my laughter at work to which I’m sure my coworker now thinks I’ve gone crazy.

The narrator was exceptional. If it weren’t for her,
I wouldn’t have made it though the first two chapters which I found extremely boring. Her voice has that sound that just screams ‘listen to me’. First time listening to her narration and definitely not the last.

Not bad. Not great either.

I absolutely loved this book and the series for that matter. In my opinion, this should have been made into a show or movie instead of Bridgerton and I binged that series over a couple weeks. The grandmother’s carefree attitude but this is how society is added so much flare and humor. I found myself multiple times throughout the story laughing out loud, ooo-ing and awww-ing that my husband actually wanted to know what I was listening too. Highly recommend this book and if you’re a stickler like me for reading a whole series you won’t be sorry. The story of the 3 are great.

Love love loved! Great read!
