Provincial Miss Fiona Wingate is eager to swap her boring small town for an exciting London Season. Except his ward is a hellion who cannot behave. Surely he can rehabilitate his scandalous reputation, secure a match for his ward, and find the sophisticated woman of his dreams before it’s too late. His father’s will demands Tobias marry within the next six weeks, or he’ll lose his mother’s house, a treasure so dear that Tobias can’t consider defeat. And that is only the start of his problems. 'Dissolute rogue Tobias Powell, Earl of Overton, has just inherited a sheltered, proper young ward for whom he must find a husband. The same conversations, the same thoughts, the same hang-ups (especially on Tobias' part) and it just felt like it went around in circles.ĪRC provided by the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review But it ended up being just a strange, inconsequential add-on that served no purpose.Ĭircular: Too much of this book was just repetition. I really wanted it to be elaborated upon, to have it play some part in the plot or in Fiona's character. A handful of times we hear her talk about wanting to look at maps.
I found it very interesting and original. Maps: Fiona has a sweet, funny thing with maps - she absolutely loves them. It was so thin and flimsy that this book pretty much felt like a collection of situations that served no higher purpose.
Only good thing is that it didn't take me too long to read. I didn't find very much to like I'm afraid and it just left me disappointed. In all honesty, I have always felt slightly underwhelmed by Darcy Burke, but usually I have still managed to feel entertained.
