This film is the archtypical regency romance. There is the playboy duke and of course, the beautiful and virtuous heroine - subordinated and yet spirited. Although the premise of this story is highly unrealistic, this novel is a diversion from everyday work and allows the reader to drift into the fantasy world. There are, however, a few problems with this story that prevented me from giving it five stars. The lovers lack cohesive communication. Call me a 90s girl, but I definitely think that the misunderstanding between Ashleigh and Brett was prolonged unnecessarily. If the two understood an inkling about each other a lot of things in this story would not have taken place. Moreover, there were a couple of scenes that were reminiscent of the era when romance writers incorporated bodice-ripping scenes into their work. However, put all these flaws aside and let your mind drift into an unreal world...it is a pleasant adventure.
Absolutely wonderful!
