Outrageous, but funny when you need a light-hearted lift.
Needed to see the h/h together more.

started out strong, felt it tried to add too much without enough pages to make it sensible. like the reasons for the duke's dottiness and his turnabout. the beautiful (but not scheming) neighbour, the bad in-debt cousin and his ineffective plot. Elizabeth started out strong and interesting, but except for the first few pages, we never see anything except besides foolishness. Also the dog gets more mentions than the hero

Rollicking!

A brilliant duke, a bluestocking, and a beast of a hound interact magnificently to stir up a frothy romance laced with fun. Add a rapscallion of a brother, a mushroom of a cousin, and some handy footmen to help save the day and it's all quite enjoyable.

Highly recommended for those who love to overset the mannerly attributes of a Regency Romance and for fans of an antic-filled tale.

Amusing farce, bit short, could have used more character development.

Lady Elizabeth(aka Betsy) is quite a character. The doddering earl she marries sounds like a piece of work. I loved Betsy, her hero not so much.

A fun historical. A bit light on the romance development but a lot of fun adventures and chase scenes
