Secrets of a Summer Night wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. I mean come on, how flat and one dimensional can a character be????
Synopsis
Annabelle Peyton needs to marry money, particulary a peer with lots of money and even a better title. So she and her fellow wallflowers decide to trap a man into marrying her. But her most persistent suitor is Simon Hunt.
Simon Hunt is not only not a peer, but he's a butcher's son! And throughout the book he tries to convince Annabelle to marry him.
*spoiler*
Annabelle is one of the most ridiculous heroines I've ever read about. She's so materialistic and when she doesn't get something she pouts. By the way she's 25 and she acts 5!
Simon is an idiot! Liking someone who's as selfish as that, ugh! The only character I liked was Annabelle's brother Jeremy, who was funny and sweet.
Not A Keeper on my Shelf. I would have given this book 2 stars but Lisa KLeypas is one of my fav. authors and I loved practically any other book I've read by her.

I really liked "It Happened One Autumn," "Then Came You," "Sugar Daddy," and "Mine til Midnight" but this book along with "Worth Any Price" were not Kleypas' best. The plots were just boring and predictable. I stopped reading them early on.
Rated by buyers -
I really liked this book. It made my heart lurch a few times and everyone loves a self-made man. I save five stars for Judith McNaught's Paradise and Kleypas' Sugar Daddy, but I thought this book was very good and as usual Kleypas didn't disappoint. My only problem is now I've read all her books and have to find another author that is consistently a good read.
Rated by buyers -
It was refreshing to read a Regency era romance that colors outside the lines. I'd always taken the fact that peers marry peers as sort of a rule for that period, but this book breaks the rules and does a marvelous job of it. I loved the story and really enjoyed learning some of the history of the period too, without having to wade through a lot of narrative or info dump. Expertly done.

I love the Wallflower books, they are the best that I have read, Lisa Kleypas is a wonderful writer, her stories are loving and adventurous. I cannot put them down once I have started the book.
