Two stories feature in this book, one post-restoration (1676) and the other regency (1803); the first features an entertaining fencing competition the second had a widow who loses her house when her brother gambles it away.
I just didn't feel it, I wanted to like the story and the characters but somehow felt that it was more historical novel than romance, probably quite correct for the era but not for my tastes. I like wooing not women whose choices are caught between a rock and a hard place.
Readable, somewhat entertining but not what I was expecting and not romantic enough for me. ( )
