Customer Reviews

Nice Read

This book is nicely characterized and written, but what I really liked most about it was the author's research into sailing on the Thames River. While the writer certainly did justice to the standard Regency customs, her willingness to take the reader out of the drawing room is what sets this book apart. This is well worth the time to read.

something different in a Regency romance

For anyone who is looking for reliable romance, deftly written, and an unusual twist on the setting, this book is for you. I can't recall another Regency romance where much of the action takes place sailing on the Thames, and other portions weave in and out of art galleries rather than ballrooms. Eastwood must have done tons of research, but tells the story in a natural, straightforward way so that her wealth of arcane information never intrudes or overburdens the reader. Her characters are well-drawn and the entire story was so absorbing that I couldn't put it down. Well done.
