Excellent book

I love Carole Mortimer books and this book her first Regency is excellent. Jane is a great heroine, not a wimp. Hawk is an arrogant hero. They both play off of each other in an entertaining way. They meet at her guardian's home and when she gets kicked out she sneaks into his carriage. He takes her home where she meets her unknown father. I can hardly wait till the next book, Hawk's brother's story. Jane's father was an appealing character and I wish he would get his own story he deserves a happy ending besides finding his unknown daughter.

I loved this book!!

It had been some time, since I read a historical romance- but not since Barbara Cartland times have I enjoyed a book more. Jane actually had a backbone something you don't see often in the new romance novels. The Duke "Hawk" was wonderful, but he was no match for Jane's temper- she was just not a simpering miss. I recommend this book highly.
