A Change of Heart<\/a><\/em> (2011) Candice Hern<\/p>\n

\"A<\/a>Lady Mary Haviland is quite content being a spinster. In fact, she enjoys being a somewhat eccentric spinster, making friends with all sorts, including rakes.<\/p>\n

“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.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.
