The romance was sweet and pretty tame - there wasn't anything beyond kissing. I really liked Margaret and Gent. Both were sweet and strong and passionate characters and the romance progressed really organically - if not a little rushed in some ways. I mean for all they have being watching each other they still don't really spend time together before they fall in love. But it worked for the story and I did enjoy the banter between everyone. I had trouble following the plot regarding the Miss Ritson and Sir Vincent thing - I kept feeling like I was missing something - but I think that's due to my own distractions while reading rather than the book itself. It wrapped itself up but I kept feeling like I was missing something larger. I loved the whole London League thing and would've liked to see more of it in this book and just in general. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
