A Wedding in Springtime
A Wedding in Springtime is the first book by Ms. Forester that I have read. For the most part, I enjoyed the book. It's a sweet romance with likable characters. There is even a little intrigue thrown into the mix. I always have a love/hate relationship with Regency romances. I love them because they are usually very romantic with sigh worthy heroes (as this one does). I hate them because the time in which they take place often frustrates me. Their ideas of what is proper and what isn't just fascinates me. I often wonder if I could survive in a time like that. I think I would find it stifling.
With that said, I felt badly for Eugenia. Because of one minor mistake, she is treated horribly in society. I liked her because she is able to stay true to herself despite this treatment. I also liked William. Their fall into love developed slowly and they have a wonderful HEA. I loved his surprise for her in the end.
As I said, for the most part, I liked the book. I felt at times like that Will and Eugenia weren't enough of the focal point of the book as I expected. This made it drag in a few places for me. I think lovers of Regency Romance will enjoy this book.
