The Unexpected Wife (Signet Regency Romance)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent novel
Review: As a big fan of Regency Romance, I looked forward to reading this books with mixed feelings. On the one hand, the plot looked enchanting, on the other I was afraid of what exactly might be in it, since the couple are pretending to be man and wife. My fears were totally unfounded, I'm glad to say that this is quite a clean book. Also, I would disagree with one of the other reviews which spoke badly of Juliet. She told him that he could tell people she had died, and she would quietly disappear. Besides, one must give a work of fiction some leniency. All in all, very enjoyable!

Summary: Not her best
Review: I do like some of Emily Hendrickson's writing, but I did not like this book. The heroine, Juliet Winterton, despite the fact that she is supposed to be quite sensible, kind, etc., does many illogical things (like imagining she can pretend to be the viscount's wife, go about in the village *as* his wife, and not in doing so force him into marrying her) and many unkind things (constantly speaking to the viscount as though he were some shady character trying to take advantage of her when she's the one trespassing on his good will, and deceiving most everyone).
I liked the viscount, but I found it very unlikely he would put up with Juliet's shenanigans.
If I hadn't so disliked Juliet, the book might have been pretty good, but there you go. She irritated me beyond belief.

Summary: A absorbing read
Review: This book is amix of wit, romance and definetly flight. Emily Hendrikson is at her best with alluring vocabulary and decriptions of scenes. Not graphic like Harlequis, though.
