review 1: I snagged McAlistair's Fortune, book three in the series, from the library first, but when I was finished, I requested As Luck Would Have It. And when I finished that book, well, I went and borrowed the second book.A bit of historomance crack, this series.Coming into the first book of the series already being familiar with the characters perhaps put me at an advantage, at least as far as knowing what goes on and who's up to what. Not there's much set up required...I do have to admit that this was a total escape read, and under different circumstances, I likely would have found Alex overbearing and far too possessive. But I ignored it and cheered Sophie on every time she slipped through his fingers.Though I wasn't much of a fan of the luck arc (especially as it played out i... moren the end), I do have to admit that Sophie and Alex were fun, and I liked finishing the book knowing that, based on my experience reading book three, Sophie's still giving Alex a run for his money.Definitely a fun historical romance you can escape into, while leaving you just a little breathless.
review 2: this book was a little bit unexpected as the characters are not different than in most books - especially Sophie, who is returning to London after twelve years of traveling around the world. the mistery bit in this book is not what it seems, what was a bit disappointing for me.I also would have loved a bit more extensive ending.Nevertheless it is a funny read and the dialoges are really witty. the story leaves you wanting more of it because the secondary characters are so much fun as well. less
