Even a schoolteacher is entitled to romantic fantasies, but Delsie Sommers was eminently practical. She never dared to dream of a wealthy, handsome, and titled husband. Then one day fate turned her world upside down and flung her into a marriage with a man she scarcely knew. Fortunately for Delsie, he died within hours of the wedding; leaving her his house, much of his fortune, and his young daughter. Then fate stepped in again. This time in the guise of the wealthy and handsome Lord deVigne—her late husband's brother-in-law—whose attempt to run her life aroused her spitfire temper—and her hopes.

3.0 out of 5 stars
A decent read,
By Flower Girl (MN, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Delsie (Hardcover)
Do not be alarmed: This book wasn't that bad, it was just not up to Ms. Smith's usual standard. It had Ms. Smith's trademark of witty remarks, humorous bantering, fast-paced plot, and interesting mysteries; But this book also lacked a certain spark, certain chemistry. Therefore, those bantering and remarks were just that, a bit flat; at certain point, they were even tiresome--with Delsie and Max spent a lot of time bucking heads with each other without accomplishing anything, this stale mate situation showed stubbornness in both characters, not sensible enough hero and heroine (especially the heroine) that I'm used to from this author. Nonetheless, this was still a good read, I just have higher expectations from Ms. Smith's work, that's all.
