My sweet Grandma Hall always had a saying when she really liked something, she said she was "Tickled Pink". That is exactly how I felt while reading this book and I still feel the same after finishing it. Knowing that this is the author's first published book, also makes this debut novel quite impressive.

We first meet the stronger, older sister Amelia, who is very protective of and very loyal to her younger sister Clara. With both parents dead and a very nasty Step-father who wants to get rid of both girls, Amelia knows their future lies in her hands. With an invitation to attend a week-long house party, Ronald, the son and heir of Lakeshire Park has extended an invitation to get to know Clara better. Neighbor Peter Wood is also there to help secure a match between Ronald and his younger sister, Georgiana. The games begin to see who will win Lord Ronald's heart.

Even with Amelia and Peter trying to help their younger sisters win over Ronald, they butt heads from the start. It's amazing how with all of that going on, this truly felt like a real-life romance unfolding. The steps Amelia and Peter took from enemy to friend, to finally a romantic love interest was slow and natural. It was also amusing to see how Amelia and Peter's interactions went from pestering each other, to witty banter, & then mischievous and lighthearted teasing. Honestly, their synergy throughout the story is dynamic, whether it was when they're competing or when they're becoming friends and more. I simply adored this couple. The supporting characters in the novel are good also, especially Lady Demsworth and Mrs. Turnball. These two older ladies were full of wisdom and humor.

This Proper Romance, Lakeshire Park, is one you'll want to get your hands on soon. Between the brilliant dialogue, the competition for Lord Ronald's heart,& the ever-present twists and turns, you can be assured you'll have an entertaining read you won't want to put down.
