In Myretta Robens’s award-winning second novel, published in 2005 and newly revised, a gentleman hiding his aristocratic background meets the one woman who might prefer his false identity
WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT IT... Weary of London's social whirl, Geoffrey Dorrington, Earl of Cheriton, longs for the simple life--and what better place to experience it than on a relative's country estate? His plan to pass himself off as the steward succeeds...until the day Miss Cassie Hartwell smiles at him. Damn it all--the vicar's daughter is far too charming for her own good--and his. He will have to tell her who he really is...
...THERE IS LOVE Cassie sees no reason not to talk to the friendly steward on the neighboring estate. After all, Geoffrey is well-bred, kind to animals, full of fun, and amazingly handsome. Even if her social-climbing mama expects her to marry well, Cassie has other ideas. And love is in the air...
So far this book is a good read. It is a quick read as the book is small and there aren't many pages in each chapter. The plot is fairly predictable however so it is not a book to read if you want to be kept guessing. I am only on chapter 5 and have predicted the plot correctly the entire way and have a certain idea of how it will end. It is an enjoyable and fun read if you are on a time constraint and just want to take some time to read.
I just finished reading the entire book and do have to say that I enjoyed it despite its predictability. The plot is not complex but it is simple and enjoyable.
