I was excited to read a twist on “My Fair Lady.”  I always seem to enjoy a strong woman who has received a bad lot in life get elevated in society by a ‘prince charming.’   I, also, love a good historical mystery!  This book had all of these. 

My biggest issue is that I felt like neither main character was developed enough for me to really get involved with the story.  I have to say the majority of the plot seemed to be just about getting to the spicy scenes and a bit of banter and how good Della was at everything thrown in between. 

All in all it wasn’t up my alley, but for those who love a rags to riches story with a good amount of spice, this might be the one for you. 

Thanks to Storm Publishing and Net Galley for the digital ARC in exchange for my honest review.
