review 1: This was #3 on my pile of Christmas Fluff reads, more of a Victorian Christmas romance rather than my favorite Regency time period. No complaints, it actually was surprisingly enjoyable! I liked that the generally predictable story held my attention with a line up of interesting characters and a curiosity of just what was going to unfold next. The “mysterious” story of young pick-pocket/thief, Tom, and his struggling mother within the main story was a refreshing curiosity. Somehow we readers knew they would play an important part… I figured it out eventually, but the heart-warming ending made it a richer Christmas story.My complements and thanks to author Kaitlin O’Riley for not letting the main two characters play Secret Romance Ping-Pong, where they constantly ... morevolley their doubts, hesitations and feelings. A little is ok, but going on forever, (like some romance authors do) gets really tiresome. O’Riley didn’t and I find it refreshing.My only complaint is with the picture on the front. Many times Quinton Roxbury is clearly described with light, golden color hair. Clearly the person who worked on the front cover art didn’t have a clue. Not a biggie, but it bugs me! I like when the picture on front is an important illustration to the story inside.It was a fun story. Maybe I’ll read it again some day, or maybe I won’t…
review 2: Starting this one after consuming the first two in this set, I find these light reads that had enough history and less waffle than most (some others seem to go into great lengths to over describe things). I love all the sisters, their friends and the love story of each one so far. Jeffrey is so amusing, getting caught up in a few plots and schemes set out by certain sisters. Currently waiting for the next one to be released..... less
