Good little Regency romance.

The plot of this book goes nowhere. The ending is very rushed and the romance is almost a non-romance. I liked Elinor and her stubborn, independent pride. I do not know what I would have done in her situation. I did not like the gentleman Elinor chose in the end. I did not find his character very appealing. I preferred another suitor. I felt like the Duchess took advantage of Elinor and would have dropped her had the plan not succeeded. This is not the best book in the series. It borrows a bit from Georgette Heyer's An Infamous Army. I hoped for more about characters from the previous novels but there was only one brief mention of Gavin.

Vivian did her homework on this regency; the settings are detailed, and language used by the cast of the story felt more authentic. This is an ensemble cast, unusual for a paperback romance, but successfully juggled so all had their 15 minutes of spotlight.
