Fancy that!

This was just what I needed, actually! It was simple, proper, and sweet - far from my usual picks! I must admit that I'm a little dad that it ended!

There were funny parts to it. However, most of it was kind of boring. The story could have been told in about 100 pages or less. It was a slow read.

[Karen · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a diverting read. I enjoyed the characters and the story.

Content: a few swear words, passionate kissing

[Sandra R · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nicely written, but not really for me. A bit slow. 2.5 stars.
