review 1: Really enjoyable Regency England-esque m/m romance. I liked both couples in this book -- Kirian/Evelyn and Terrell/Edlin were equally interesting, though my favorite character is Kirian. I have a thing for overly romantic hotheads. Although Terrell and Evelyn were also quite adorable. Edlin wasn't really in the story much but when he was he was busy sweeping poor, practical Terrell off his feet.I've so far been enjoying all the stories in the Deceived series. A bit sad that I only have one tale to go (How to Court a Librarian) and then it's time to move on to another series. Wish there was more in this setting.
review 2: Being one of Megan Derr's series book that I had recently just discovered, this one was actually satisfying, in a sense that for THE FIR... moreST TIME EVER,I felt like I was reading just another perfectly wonderful hetero/normal romance novel, only it's male/male novel..(And rest assured- Not all novels can do that!)But while the story was very sweet and "practical" in it's own ways, there were still a bit of a flaw in some parts: For example, in Terrell & Edlin's story, Edlin's character seems to be a bit bland; like the kind of gentleman but with no real unique character to him. His character doesn't seem to standout like his partner, Terrell's character. He seems like the dreamy prince-charming, never put into actions.That's one. Another thing was the fact that it seems like the only gay characters in this book was the two pairs themselves, ONLY. Now does that sound convincing enough to be acceptable and real? No, I do not think so. I mean, their parents,their uncles and aunts and brothers and sisters and lecturers and etc seem to be heteros; everyone else are Heteros, while they seem to be the only gays around?? Not convincing enough for me. Quite scarry actually. But, whatever.So, I was gonna give a 5* for the nice and sweet storylines for both Terrell&Edlin AND Kirian&Evelyn's story...but I have to cut off -1* because of some unreality and basically unlogical flaws put into it. That's all. It's still a good read. less
