Delicious regency romance

The Perfect Husband was an excellent adventure -- the hero who wanted to marry for love but was thwarted, the heroine who trapped the wrong man, the white tiger, and the gaggle of friends from previous novels were all enjoyable aspects. The characterization was excellent. And if one puts aside the oft-questioned workings of the tiger as a plot-point and possibly more-than-tiger being, it can become quite comical.This book is not the first in the series, but it is easily enjoyable as it is. Though the flock of marrieds that appears as the book progresses is a bit confusing at first, in the end it is nothing more than an enticement for the reader to track down the other novels in the sequence. Personal Note: I do not read many straight regency romances. I would not recognize a historical inaccuracy if it was circled in red on the page. And, I like (and this is one of the main reasons I greatly enjoyed this book) series where there are links between the heros and heroines, and where the "visiting" of old friends makes you feel like you know everyone. This book, with its host of recurring characters and cute twist of a tiger singlehandedly had me picking up straight regencies again.
