This is one of the loveliest Regencies I've ever read. Nadine's characters and setting are very real. I couldn't bear to put this book down, and sneak-read it even at work! Now that's the mark of a truly excellent novel. Nadine is a wonderful writer whose style can't be beat for drawing you into the lives of her characters. You ARE her characters when you read this wonderful tale.
