I love this series.  These are not traditional Georgette Heyer type Regencies, though. The characters act much more modern. Lots of fun banter, great characters and good emotional intensity. |
Thanks! They look fun.
I actually bought a couple last month because of a thread on All About Romance about how unbelievable they were. I like the more historical ones, but sometimes I'm more in the mood for something that is really more like a fairy tale. Or like a Regency set in an alternate history where ladies can marry blacksmiths.
Also, it helps that so many people like Tessa Dare's voice.
I've tried a lot of "Regency lite" authors who turn out to be too blah -- bland or whatever. If the authors are going to go for the "Regency Fairy Tale" experience, they might as well go into it with all cylinders. As long as they don't start adding cell phones, helicopters, and SUVs.
