This book is so entertaining, with lots of humor. Antonia's experiences while disquised as her twin Anthony are a hoot (what she finds the men of the ton do after the ladies leave them to cigars and brandy after dinner is laugh-out-loud funny.) Ms. Henley excels at her descriptions of all the cities and estates, with Ceylon as my favorite. The erotic parts are very sensuous, well done, and not too prolonged as to be the major emphasis of this story. If you enjoy spicy Edwardian/Regency era romances with good plots, you can't go wrong with this one. ( )

Passionate in a very non-PC way. Antonia is just seventeen, and Adam Savage is a dozen years older, her guardian, and virtually engaged to her mother. How long will it take him to notice that the lad he knows as Tony is actually a girl trying to protect the family home after her brother's disappearance? ( )

very good book. I did little skim reading and plan on getting more books by the same author ( )
