Fully expected this to be your average historical romance but to my great surprise I really enjoyed it. Loved the original plot that sadly so many lack, even the characters were great. It's nice to not want to reach in an strangle one of the main characters, quite refreshing. Not that Bella or Sebastion were perfect, they were neither daft nor perfect, but instead i could see them being real people. Although i haven't read anything by Diana Quincy before now, I hoping to read more of her work in the future. Not an exact comparison, but this reminded me of Lisa Kleypas's historical novels.
