3.0 out of 5 stars
Enjoyable and funny but not true to the era.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tournament of Hearts (A Regency Romance) (Paperback)
Like of this type of books, it is quite predictable but in fact it is supposed to be forseeable like all other light literature. Let's go to the story which in it self is quite orginal and amusing. Misunderstanding and complications like it should be. The persons are well created and are self-consistent. But the downfall is the creation of the Regency era. The speech is too informal for a proper English gentry. It is so unlikely that they would have all been on first name bases with each other, like they seem to do in the story. Then there are the sexual innuendoes, they are inappropriate and do not belong to this kind of story. Walk the path of Jane Austen and a Regency romance novelist can not fail. If you don't care about a true atmosphere of a story and only want to read a lighthearted romance, then I can recommand this book to you. It is also quite funny.
