Summary: Wonderful Debut!!
Comment: When the Earl of Weymouth finds himself kidnapped, he is rescued by an unlikely hero...Beth Castleton. In Beth he finds a woman to admire, a friend, a woman whose reputation might be ruined because she saved him. He does the only honorable thing open to him...he offers to marry her. And is promptly refused.
Beth Castleton won't settle for less than love, and won't allow Weymouth to settle either. But when gossip of their adventure reaches the ears of the ton, she's left with two options, accept his offer, or leave London. Because she loves him she does the only thing she can...she leaves.
A regency with a wonderful twist, Susannah Carleton's debut novel is simply wonderful!
Rating: 4
Summary: Great Build-up
Comment: This book had an excellent plot- not what I was expecting from a traditional regency. It was innovative and still had the requisite "guy gets the girl" ending. The only letdown was that the ending was rather rushed and it felt like a lot of action was shoved into the last two chapters that could have easily filled a few more. This book would have made an excellent novel without being rushed, and more detail could have been added after the wedding. Is the rumor true about a maximum page length for regencies?

Summary: Highly recommended!
Comment: Beth Castleton was an American who moved to London where her only living relatives resided. She met George Winterbrook, Earl of Weymouth, at a house party during one of her first Society parties. She was humiliated when he, a stranger, gave her a direct cut! She would have been happy to never set eyes on him again. Fate had different ideas.
Lady Arabella Smalley kidnapped George, his four year old niece, Isabelle, and the child's "governess". Her plan was to use Isabella as blackmail and force the earl into marrying her. However, Lady Arabella did not know that Beth was NOT the governess. Nor did she expect Beth and George to escape, taking along a couple of her unhappy servants! She chased the group all the way back to London. Now "Society" had to be dealt with.
***** Lady Arabella Smalley is the type of villainess that readers LOVE to hate! I am amazed that this is actually a debut novel! It is very well written and the characters are perfectly developed!
Author Susannah Carleton is one to keep your eye on! If her next release is as grand as this one, she will be on her way to fame. I expect to be hearing this author's name on the lips of many fans in the near future. Highly recommended reading here! *****
