This was a better than average regency but I kept thinking I had read it before. The plot seemed extremely familiar. I thought perhaps I really had read it before and forgotten about it. However, it only came out in 2003 so if I have read it before I forgot it pretty completely in 6 years. If I haven't read it, then it is a clone of a another book. The heroine felt like an anachronism in her independence and goals. ( )
