I guess I wasn't in the mood for it. Very mannered in style, I couldn't connect with the characters. (

This is just not going to be as good as Chase's later works. It was her second ever I believe and written 30 years ago. But, it wasn't offensive and I'm very glad she continued at it, so I'm rounding up to 3 stars. (

Just her second book, and already Loretta Chase's marvelous talent convincingly takes the villain from her first book and turns him into the reluctant hero here. And what a delicious rogue he is! The action ranges from his rescue of Arabella in Albania to the ballrooms of London to the English countryside. Yes, some of the action is rather unlikely (and far too complicated to even try to summarize), but LC keeps things moving and the reader enjoys going along for the ride.

This book is the sequel to [b:Isabella|1635404|Isabella (Trevelyan Family, #1)|Loretta Chase|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1228871349s/1635404.jpg|1629626], which is good but not great. There are many characters who turn up in both books, so for maximum enjoyment, I recommend reading both in quick succession. The Kindle versions are just $2.99.

Alexandra's scholar father has dragged her off to Albania and now wants her to marry his benefactor's scholar son. But Randolph is boring, and Alexandra is not interested. She appeals to her godmother, who sends her roguish nephew Basil to the rescue. Complications ensue.

Lots of fun, with an intelligent, appealing hero and heroine. (
