About this title

About the Author:

Jessica Benson lives in Brooklyn Heights, New York with her husband and two young sons. This is her first novel.

Review:

"...Ms. Benson demonstrates herself to be a talented author. She moves her players with the skill of a Grand Master sitting before a chess board. Her dialogue is witty and her prose is evocative; future works may prove her to be one of the rare authors who writes both prose and dialogue with an equal level of high quality. . . My fervent hope is that Ms. Benson follows up her debut with another winner. If so, I will joyfully be adding another traditional regency author to my auto-buy roster. -- Romance Journal

4 1/2 stars

"A new author of considerable talent makes a sparkling debut with a rollicking tale of love and misunderstanding in Regency times... A graceful stylist, Ms. Benson sets off a veritable fountain of romantic sparks between her two lovers, displaying a real gift for witty repartee that will leave discerning readers anxiously awaiting the next book from this outstanding new writer." -- Romantic Times
