Summary: Makes My Top 10 List
Review: This is one of my 10 all-time favorite historical romances. Angela Howard is one of the most realistic heroines I have ever had the pleasure to read about and Ms. Wilde's story is a wonderful departure from the formula writing and worn-out cliches so prevalent in this genre. The supporting characters are well developed and intelligently written--they aren't just cardboard cutouts acting as a backdrop for the heroine. Angel in Scarlet is witty, smart, sexy and touching. I highly recommend it.

Summary: A Romantic Comedy and Drama, A Delightul Getaway!
Review: This is one of my all time favorite books, I have owned a copy for 11 Years and read it again at least once every year. Angela Howard is timeless and endearing, the story has wry humor and whit. There are some great one liners and the wonderful narration pulls you in. Someone should do a screen play. Angel in Scarlet is worth seeing on screen.

Summary: A romance that breaks the mold--and 1000 cliches
Review: What is fabulous about this book is that it dares to be different. There is no other romance like it. Since a previous reviewer has already given away the ending, it can't hurt for me to reveal more. No, the heroine didn't end up with the dark, brooding man who took her virginity, but instead with the man who became her friend and proved, over and over, that he truly cared about her--truly loved her. It was such a startling plot twist, that it threw me.BTW, use of the finger has been around for centuries in most Western countries; it is NOT a 20th century American vulgarism, nor is telling people to go to hell. This book also isn't set in Regency England. For instance, Thomas Gainsborough wasn't just a character in this book, he was a real person--and he died in 1788. Even the most liberal interpretation of the years constituting Regency England wouldn't have it begin until at least 1800.
