I bought this book years ago while walking through the book section in a local K-Mart. The cover caught my eye. At the time, I read mainly fantasies, but I had also read a few regencies. The combination of the two genres, plus the creative use of letter writing to tell the story intrigued me. Am I glad I purchased that book.To this day, I have never seen it in a book store. I must have loaned it to more than 20 friends over the years--all of whom have loved this book. I just had to write a review when I saw it (with a slightly different title) offered at Amazon.Buy this book!
