Courting Miss Lancaster

What a delightfully sweet and humorous tale this was! The whole premise of the story was entertaining: poor penniless Harry, in love with the beautiful Athena, but forced by his best friend (Athena's guardian) into being a "suitor sorter" for her. Sarah Eden's descriptions of the men that Harry sends Athena's way were so witty and you wondered what kind of a man was going to appear next!All the characters in the book were succinctly well drawn and I have to confess that I fell in love with Harry - what a lovely man :)I can highly recommend Courting Miss Lancaster if you like sweet romances that aren't too serious. I shall be looking out for other books by Sarah Eden.

Like this authors stories. She usually is accurate in relation to historical facts and Regency social mores but occasionally makes errors in her books like mentioning raccoons which have only now found their way to some parts of mainland Europe.This book follows on from Finding Persephone and includes many of the characters first introduced in that novel.The H&H are likeable, the romance slowly develops which is my preference and the supporting characters are well drawn. There is no great drama or intrigue, but much to please. Shame about the price rise though, the book was much cheaper when I bought it.

The book was a pleasant, harmless beach read, but I was disappointed in relation to the price. I will not read any of her other books as they are incredibly overpriced. Best selling authors charge less for their work and it is of a better quality. 3 stars for the story, but one off for the highway robbery.

I loved this book which I got when free and had not read the first. In the series but got the gist of he character setup but would have been better to have read the first book I think to truly understand all the secondary character and I loved the duke and Persephone also. But now the book is to be paid or I. Can't believe the cost and have had to include that fact in this review as although this was a great read I can't believe the publishers are asking for over £8 for this and the first book which I would never pay. I have read some astounding books and top authors books who haven't charged this much. In today's economy I would be surprised anyone could afford this for just one (not particularly long) book. I will keep my eye on the first book and hopefully should the price reduce buy it.
