I didn't; hated & didn't finish it; started the series later un-knowingly, and wondered why that middle book sounded so familiar (up to where I had quit it). Yummy historical view!

Well, there is a LOT of historical detail, about ordinary life, in there too. And a lot LESS romance than the previously mentioned Georgette Heyer (which I also love). I mean, Georgette Heyer is ONLY about a romance --- which is not the same as saying "sex".
