Again I did not read the summary, I just knew who the hero would be but I didn't expect to get so much from this book.I completely loved Hardy. I was a little skeptical about who he'd end up with and I was like WTF was Lisa Kleypas thinking with THAT pairing.A little too close for comfort, maybe? I THOUGHT SO... AT FIRST but then I accepted it wasn't meant to be from the first book but it was still somewhat weird/awkward for me. In the end however...well... you know how the story goes. It was a long time and rough time getting to but it was a pretty captivating and moving.(Sometimes I start off my reviews that seem to just start off like I was in the middle of a conversation that only myself was privy to. Sigh)
