Story

Country girl Henrietta has been abandoned quite suddenly by the man she thought of as her sweetheart. While grieving in the shadows during a London ball, she meets a man who is bewilderingly handsome. That man is Count Deben, and he has a reputation as a playboy. Perhaps he's grown bored of the girls who swarm to him like bees to nectar, but why would he be interested in her? Henrietta is surveying him cautiously when Count Deben directs a challenging gaze her way and declares that he will make her the brightest flower of high society.

A pretty decent storyline about a count who falls in love with a young lady that saves him from a mother-daughter trap at a house party. I liked that the count really tried to help ... VIEW MORE Henrietta in her pursuit of making the best out of her time in London during the social season, all while falling for her. I'm giving this a 4 because I didn't really see any romance at all. The love is kind of just plopped out towards the very end, felt very rushed. Many misunderstandings about each other's real intentions and feelings, such as of course he could never love a country bumpkin like me, sigh. Or of course she hates a scoundrel like me, but I have to try no matter what, yadda yadda yadda. I just really enjoy historical romances and I've read this over and over again despite there really being very little romance involved. It's a clean romance, no real sense of scandal or heartbreak. Simple to follow, no real surprises. But I absolutely adored the HEA, they both deserved a big happy family.
