Just finished Practical Widow tomPassionate Mistress and am looking forward to starting Vicar's Daughter to Viscount's Lady. I really enjoy books that have characters in common and a running storyline. This is the first book by Louise Allen that I have read and am sorry I didn't "discover" her before. I have only one complaint about the book (I read it as an eBook), many words were split up by syllables - such as: par lour. This interrupted the flow too often.
