I really wanted to like this story, as it started off promising, but somewhere along the line, I just lost interest. I admired the detail and attention given at the beginning of this book to the poor during this time, but after the hero and heroine got together, I no longer cared. The way this book is written is very detached and matter-of-fact sometimes and for a romance book, it just doesn't work well. I came from reading Brenda Joyce's A Lady at Last and The Masquerade which were gripping and captivating page-turners.
To briefly summarize, we meet the heroine who is poor and barely scraping by. The hero is a poor nobleman. The hero finds that it is possible that the heroine could be a long-lost twin to a huge inheritance and decides to take a chance on her to see if he can marry her and gain the fortune.
I know there isn't much to this review but I really just don't have much to write about it. I neither hate or love the book. It is just a boring and neutral for me, which I think..makes it even worse.
