Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Although the popularity of the historical romance may be waning, writers like Enoch give readers plenty of reasons to return to the genre. With Enoch's latest (after London's Perfect Scoundrel), which ties up her Lessons in Love series, she delves beneath the superficialities of glittering balls and perfectly tied cravats to focus on the wounds borne by Robert Carroway, a supposed hero of Waterloo but in reality a former prisoner of war who can barely steel himself to converse with his family, much less waltz with debutantes. But a chance encounter with Lucinda Barrett, easy conversationalist as well as regular waltzer, leads him to hope that he could have a normal life. Lucinda, who has her sights set on a duke's fourth son, is surprised when Robert offers to help her gain him, and even more surprised when her encounters with Robert grow more important than the success of her campaign. But her beloved father's dismissal of Robert as "damaged goods," followed by implications that Robert may be a traitor, could stunt his recovery as well as their relationship—unless Lucinda listens to her heart and trusts him. Lucinda's refusal to treat Robert as less than a whole man and Robert's sharp sense of humor give this charming tale depth, and Enoch balances it well with a hearty dose of screwball fun.

Product Description

Lucinda Barrett's best friends ended up married to the men to whom they delivered their 'lessons in love'. So Lucinda decides to choose someone who definitely needs lessons, but someone who will not complicate her life. And that person is definitely not Robert Carroway.

Robert is nothing if not complicated, and though he is the brother of a viscount, he rarely goes about society, and finds the weather and hat fashions ludicrous subjects for discussion. Robert is attracted to Lucinda's unpretentious ways, her serenity and her kindness. When she chooses someone for her love lessons, Robert offers to help her deliver her lessons, but sets out to convince the woman he has fallen for to take a chance on love ... and on him.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is what romance is all about..., April 3 2004
By Janine Allen (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love Suzanne Enoch's books - they're always entertaining and often laught-out-loud funny. But this one was different.

It wasn't good. It was fantastic.

The story of Robert's recovery is handled with such finess, I fell in love with him myself on page two and couldn't wait to see them together. I believed his reaction to the horrors of the war - and I felt it in no way impacted his manliness.

In fact it made him human. And dynamic.

This is one of the few romances I've read lately that I didn't feel the need to skip through. I read every word and enjoyed it all.

I can only hope that the completion of the lessons will not mean the end of this series. We've still got a few Carroway brothers to marry off, and I want to see these two settled...

3.0 out of 5 stars Starts off stong, but ultimately inconsistant, May 27 2004
I was truly enjoying this book as it began. I am always drawn more to character driven romances than those powered by a mystery or event. My problem with the book is that the plot changes mid-story. Robert is a tortured hero in the beginning, having debilitating panic attacks and unable to converse with his family. In a matter of a few weeks, though (the whole story took no more than a few weeks from start to finish) he's completely overcome these problems, fallen in love, and solved the mystery of who framed him. I'm afraid I just don't buy it. I wish Ms. Enoch had just focused on Robert and Lucinda's relationship and left the mystery for another story. It didn't meld well with this one. To add this element, she had to resolve Robert's problems much too quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, May 3 2004
By A Customer
One reviewer called Robert a "wimp." I couldn't disagree more with this statement. Anyone who's gone through torture and almost died well, I think if they started to have nightmares that's normal and as someone else says makes you human. Well I guess some women could see him as damaged or a wimp, and that's fine It's why he needed a special woman to pull him out of it. I didn't like Suzanne Enoch's novella in Lady Whistledown, but this book was very very good, and she has gone up in my estimation.
