I adored this book. First, Dylan, the hero is British. That alone is enough to get me to pick the book up. Second, he's a Marquess. I do love the aristocracy no matter what era. Third, he's absolutely filthy. Poor inexperienced, naive Lydia didn't know what hit her when she met Dylan.

My only "complaint" about the book is the amount of time we spend in Lydia's head. The POV is her's, so you'd expect to be in her head. But we spent a lot of time there when she was in a "moment" with Dylan. I would have rathered more interaction between the characters than Lydia's inner monologue. But that is a very small detraction to an otherwise fabulous, fabulous read. I can't wait to find out what happens next with this couple when the second book, Royal Disaster, comes out in April.
