Synopsis: When the beautiful Miss April Hartwood arrives in London to be introduced to Regency high society, she hopes for some fun and frivolity after a life spent in rural obscurity in Cornwall. Unfortunately for her, her grandmother has other ideas...marriage.

Lively and strong-willed, April does not appreciate being compelled to catch a husband. Yet, before long, she finds herself courting the affections of the Duke of Claredon, while struggling with a wholly inappropriate attraction to the insufferable Mr Royce.

In the lead up to Christmas, in the year 1820, a delightfully devious campaign is orchestrated to bring together two people destined for one another, regardless of the obstacles to be overcome and the inconvenient tendency on the part of the protagonists to resist their attraction...until they are finally brought to realise they cannot escape fate, or the meddling of one determined grandmother!

Review: Awww this was a cute romance! I loved the story and it might be because I just watched Pride and Prejudice with my movie watching friends (@abookloversplaylist and co), but it was so cute and I adored it. The characters were well done, the storyline was interesting, and I enjoyed this book.

My only issue is the pacing. It's so slow in most spots and I'm used to faster paced books.

Verdict: This was adorable!
