review 1: I am assuming that enough readers have asked Burrowes about the progenitors of her most read series, that she felt obligated to create this back story. Since I have enjoyed the Windhams, I figured this was worth picking up. It was, but only because I have read some of the series. If you are new to this series, I would read some of the romances about the Windham children before I read this novella. Much of the humor was, for me, based on knowing the other stories in the series.I think Burrowes is a fun, good writer, but this is a minor work. Well worth reading, but I am glad I could borrow this rather than buy it.
review 2: The short story of of Percy and Esther- The Duke and Duchess met and fell in love. I kept wondering how did Percy who was so charming... more in the Courtship become so annoying in the later books? Great "Dickensian" names and a house party make this a fun, quick, read. The powerful Duchess was poor but beautiful girl,almost servant-like when she met her future husband. That was surprising. Of course there was a garden love scene and some petty characters as per usual but love and romance conquer all. less
