A Lady's Guide to Fortune-Hunting by Sophie IrwinMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The banter in this book was just my favorite. Kitty and [James] Lord Radcliffe were certainly equals in verbal sparring and A Lady's Guide to Fortune Hunting did not disappoint.
The writing wasn't perfect-a sort of omniscient 3rd person point of view-and I did sometimes not quite follow who was thinking a certain train of thought, but I could easily overlook that little folly with the fantastic hate/hate relationship we had going on.
"It occurred to them both, then-though of course they did not know it-that they might equally have agreed to pistols at dawn."
And that moment he mutters, "That little devil" may be my favorite. Even though it was full of condemnation I think there may have been just a smidge of respect; not that he'd ever let her know that, of course.
I have been in a bit of a book funk lately and this book pulled me out of it and set me merrily on my way. So happy I finally pulled it off my TBR shelf and gave it a read!
