Summary: romantically funny
Comment: When I brought this book the first thing I said to myself was just how funny could it be,it's a romance. Reading it was the proof positive that it was very funny.What I found so amusing was Lord Radcliffe's reaction to Charlie. The poor man thought he was a sure canidate for Bedlam.The constant scrapes and misadventures Charlie/Charlotte Westerly got herself and Lord Jeremy into were exciting. Lord Radcliffe's reactions to Charlie however, were to me much more priceless and hilarious, and when Charlotte dressed as Charlie is to spend the night in the same bed as Lord Radcliff...well his sanity is bound to go thru some confusing changes.It's just to funny for words. This book is a must read!

Summary: The most humorous romance book I've read!
Comment: This book is magnificent! I couldn't stop laughing while reading it, much to my husband's regret who was desperately trying to sleep and the fact that I kept re-reading the funny passages again and again didn't help at all! The way poor Radcliffe finds himself attracted to a young boy "Charles" and starts to wonder for his sexual preferences is incredibly hilarious.
In a few words, the story goes as follows: The earl of Radcliff meets a yound couple, a brother named "Charles" and his sister "Beth" trying to escape from their uncle. Much to their dismay (!), he offers to escort them to London, settle them in his house and introduce them to the ton as his relatives so that Beth can find a husband to escape from her uncle's plans. Although Beth is a very attractive woman, he finds himself attracted to her brother, Charlie! Radcliff is shocked by his response, but when he finally admits to himself that he is indeed attracted to "him", he finds out that he is also attracted to Beth... only at certain times! Little does he know that the brother and sister are in fact twin sisters and keep switching places as Charlie and Beth. As if this is not enough, a blackmailer appears that threatens to reveal the twins' secret.
How much longer can the twins keep their secret? Who is the vilain? Will Radcliff find out the truth before he loses his mind? Get the book and find that out!! I only regret that this book has been in my "to read list" for over a year and I only decided to read it last week. I will certainly not loose time again and go right away to order the other books of Mrs Sands! Don't make the same mistake with me if you haven't read this book. Go and get it right away!

Summary: Let Down...
Comment: I bought this book after reading all the great reviews, but I found myself disappointed. The premise is great and interesting with a set of twins on the run with Charlie (one of the twins) disguising herself as a boy. They run into Lord Radcliffe at an inn. There are many impersonations in the story. Radcliffe believes that he has fallen in love with Charlie's twin Beth, only when Charlie is impersonating her sister. Radcliffe also finds himself uncomfortable aware of Charlie when Charlie is pretending to be a boy. After a series of adventures, the truth comes out and Charlie and Radcliffe fall in love and marry.
First of all, the book seems rushed at the end to try to tie up all the loose ends. Secondly, the attraction between Charlie and Radcliffe seems to die down once he discovers that he's actually attracted to Charlie (the girl) and not Beth, Charlie's sister. The latter half of the book contains more of events meant to tie up the loose ends than of the development of the love felt by the two main characters. Radcliffe takes Charlie's change of status rather casually, in my opinion.
This book had potential that it failed to fulfill. This is my first and last Lynsay Sands book.
