It should be noted there was nothing particularly special about Merry Clearwater. In fact, everything about her was rather ordinary.
She was of average height and build with a plain face, round cheeks, and a top lip that was slightly heavier than the bottom. Her eyes were blue, a pleasing enough color, but they had the poor habit of shying away from prolonged contact. She had a soft voice that was soothing to the ears, but, like her face, it was not particularly memorable.
Her natural propensity towards shyness prevented her from drawing attention unto herself, and more often than not she was comfortable going unnoticed in a sea of prettier, wealthier, and more outgoing debutantes.
Yet despite all of these ordinary characteristics – or perhaps because of them – Merry managed to capture the attention of one of the wealthiest, most eligible bachelors in all of England.
And that is where our story begins.
From best selling historical romance author Jillian Eaton comes another charming novella guaranteed to make you smile with delight.
My Review:
This is one of those $0.99 dollar books I found on Amazon that looked like a decent romance novel, and since it was only 77 pages I thought why not?
This book started out really good. I liked the character Merry because she was very shy and nervous around men, she was a basic wallflower. She reminded me of myself in the dating area.
Then she meets Duke and everything changes. She actually gets noticed and starts questioning herself. The Duke at first gave me a bad vibe and I thought him to be a creeper, but as the story went on, I liked him a little bit better. I wish there would have been more interaction between the two. I did NOT like the abrupt ending that left me disappointed and wanting.
I would describe it as a fluffy read. A real plain-jane story of a girl finding love when she really isn’t looking for it.
Overall it was an ok book. It was good, but not blow my socks off good.
