Mr. Gregory Clark is having an awful day, and it only gets worse when he’s ran over by … a woman. Mabel Russell reluctantly visits her sister in London for the Season, even though she’d rather stay in the country cataloging insects and aphids. When she runs into Mr. Clark, quite literally, she’s afraid to show any interest, especially since he’s a member of the dreaded Ton. But getting to know Mr. Clark becomes an unexpected delight.

*Note for readers: THE DUKE'S BROTHER was previously published in A Timeless Romance Anthology: All Regency Collection

My Review: 5 Stars
 
I have a little rebellious streak running through my veins right now and that means that I love to read a story, especially of Regency variety, that has characters who go against the grain. Mabel isn't your typical prim and proper debutante. Oh no--she's very much into speaking her mind, playing in the dirt, and collection and cataloguing bugs.
 
I don't know that it's typical for a man during this time period to allow a woman to follow her dreams and whims as much as Gregory does, but I loved it. He's not into the fussiness of the Ton and seems to encourage Mabel's unique hobby. That right there won me over, but when you add to that his determination to get what he wants and his stellar letter writing skills, yes, I'm definitely a fan.
 
This is a short little delightful read and one that kept a smile on my face.
 
Content: mild romance
 
*I received a copy which didn't influence my opinion in any way. All thoughts are my own.*
