I've read better Miss Quinn has come up with a whimsical romance about Caroline Trent, a runaway who is mistaken for a notorious spy by Blake, a government agent. Sparks fly between them, and the story takes place mainly in Blake's country manor. The jokes come fast, mainly due to Caroline's over-enthusiastic attempts to impress Blake and a surprise visit from Blake's sister. Now, I enjoyed this book, but why didn't I give it 4 stars or more?

Ludicrous, but always funny Caroline Trent is not having a good evening. Firstly her guardian's son, Percival, attacks her on his father's orders - for which she, quite rightly, shoots him in the shoulder.

Jula Quinn: Hilarious Author When I read a Julia Quinn I read it as I would any romance, forget the regency historical aspect, she's just brilliant. She's witty and enchanting and her female characters are always strong and funny. Caroline Trent has got to be one of the funniest characters ever. She's bubbly and intelligent and is always delivering a speech which will have the reader doubled-over because of the sheer hilarity of her comments. Of course the fact that it's a regency means who cannot love the time period and setting?... more info
Very funny tale Caroline Trent is kidnapped by Blake Ravenscroft, who mistakes her for "Carlotta" a dangerous enemy of the crown. On the spur of the moment Caroline decides to play along as she needs to hide away from her relatives until she reached her majority and inherited her fortune.
Blake Revenscroft's mission was to bring this little temptress to justice not bed the wench!
Hilarious, I have never laughed so much. You will love what antics Caroline gets up to and Blake's reaction to her.
