I decided that I wanted more historical romance in my life again. I also really, really loved the Wallflower series by Lisa Kleypas. It’s been several years so I thought it was time to re-read the series.
I remember being pretty wishy washy about Annabelle and Simon. Annabelle has so much on her shoulders since her father’s death. The family bills are being paid but just barely and the price is higher than just the coin. Annabelle doesn’t have the luxury of marrying for love. I enjoyed Annabelle. She’s smart and kind but a little snobby. She doesn’t want to marry outside of the peerage.
Simon Hunt is an interesting hero. He isn’t a peer but is richer than most of the peerage. Simon is also pretty disdainful of the very people he’s worked so hard to be amongst. I can’t say that I blame him. The peerage aren’t overly friendly to those outside themselves. Simon is an interesting mix of overly guarded and alpha with gentleness and love. He certainly has a healthy dose of arrogance.
Secrets of a Summer Night is the first book in the Wallflower series. Each of the Wallflowers is introduced in this book. It was interesting to see who will be coming up in the next books. I’ve read the books before so obviously I know the characters but they’ve faded around the edges. I’m looking forward to getting reacquainted with them.
