To her credit, she does integrate the political reality of Regency aristocrats earning their money from slavery (this is also a theme of The Saint ). And I think Hunter is always okay with her characters, even main characters, demonstrating historically accurate bad politics, that she manages to announce in the narrative as regressive. She's not having Good Dukes Do Speeches. However, I do think that method was clunkier here than her other attempts at it, due largely in part to the murder plot that just extended everything for so long.

I know exactly why everyone who doesn't like this book doesn't like this book, but it worked on me okay! The first 1/3 is basically perfect, the last 2/3 do drag and maybe there's one too many rounds of refusals/"we can't get marrieds!" but I'm always asking for meaner Balogh and this is meaner Balogh. Also she is just best snow day author and this is a literal snow day book. Read it when it is snowing outside and you are stuck inside!
