A Change of Heart (2011) Candice Hern

A Change of HeartLady Mary Haviland is quite content being a spinster. In fact, she enjoys being a somewhat eccentric spinster, making friends with all sorts, including rakes.

“I much prefer the man who is open adn straightforward in his dealing with people, even if he does not often stay strictly within the rules of Society. You can trust a man like that.”

Jack Raeburn was a confirmed rake until several unexpected deaths lead to his (unwanted) elevation as Marquess of Pemerton. Now, he has to find a wife, to make an heir, and for other more personal reasons he doesn’t want strewn about.

It was interesting, and I enjoyed the historical tone, but I wasn’t thrilled with The Big Misunderstanding that I saw coming a mile away.

I suppose her actions were reasonable in response to The Big Misunderstanding, except for her running off without speaking even to Lady Emily, who she says is a true friend. Yes, that might have made The Big Misunderstanding less big and disastrous, but I think it might have been a little more reasonable and sensible. Especially from a woman who is otherwise quite sensible.

But, I fully admit I wasn’t expecting completely sensible out of this book. All I was looking for was a pleasant good distraction, and I did get that.
Rating: 7/10
