I LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS REGENCY ROMP

It was a very slow burn to what I thought was a reasonable HEA stopping point around 9hrs in. Then I was frustrated as the story continued… until, so slowly it snuck up on me, I was invested, hooked, and emotionally wrecked and ugly crying. Bravo Ms. James!
9 hours to first HEA

Genre: Romance (late Georgian)
Miss Merry Pelford has come to London for the Season after two failed engagements in Boston. Her Aunt Bess is sure Merry will find a husband, and both are hoping that Lord Cedric Alardyce is third-time's-the-charm. She is determined to stick out this betrothal all the way to marriage. After all, she is in love with the handsome, charming nobleman. Then she meets a fascinating stranger on the terrace at the ball where she has accepted Cedric's ring. He turns out to be Cedric's older brother, the 6th Duke of Trent. Trent, prior to learning her status, decides that he will marry Merry for the reasons of physical attraction, she looks him straight in the eye, and she makes him laugh. The first 2/3 of the book is Trent trying to get around Merry and her determination to follow through on her promise to Cedric and Cedric's determination to get at her dowry. The second third involves the protagonists working toward their HEA. The story has a good balance of humor and pathos, and I found both plot and characters enjoyable.
But... I don't know if it's writing, narration, editing, or a combination, there seems to be somewhat staccato and stiff quality to the book. This is especially true in the character of Merry. Maybe the sentences are too short, or pauses in recording too long. I know Kate Reading is an excellent narrator, and does well with both American and English accents, and even in combination, but in this the American comes across as forced. This is one book I wish I'd gotten in whispersync, so I could see if I could "hear" Merry differently.
At any rate Eloisa James is an auto buy for me, because plots and character development are always enjoyable. However, I do find an unevenness to the writing between books. It's hard to describe how I feel about Eloisa James. There are books of hers that are a solid 3, but I've re-read them despite the shortcomings I found. Some are way too wordy, some a little short on backstory, and some are just right. It's a bit of a gamble with what you get, but I will always find that the plot and characters are worth any negative aspects.
Better than average. 3 1/2 stars
