Enjoyable read

I really like Mansfield's books. I loved the characters in this book with "Harry's" wooden leg and his shame about it and "Artie's" head strong manner. It was a different approach than a lot of regencies. I would definately recommend reading this book.
Don't be misled by the title--there's much more to the story

I bought this book after reading a couple of Elisabeth Mansfield books. I was kind of "turned off" by the title at first, thinking this was going to be some sort of sappy ghost story. It turned out to be more light-hearted than some Mansfield stories, in that there was a lot of humor--I particularly loved the funny dialogues between the heroine and the "phantom." But, it was also serious in the way it addressed the issue of how having a physical disability can affect the way a person views themselves and how others view them. This was a funny, sweet, and touching book. I loved it and it will definitely be on my "keeper" shelf. By the way, if you are looking for a "sensual read," don't look here. This book is so "clean" you could let anyone you know borrow it without blushing, yet there is no doubt about the potent physical attraction between the main characters. To top it all off, the hero and heroine not only love each other, but they have fun personalities and appreciate each others sense of humor. Great feisty heroine and tender hero! Highly recommended!
Hooked!

This was the first book of Elizabeth Mansfield's I read. As a self-proclaimed Georgette Heyer snob, I thought no one could write as vividly about the Regency period as she could. I was wrong, and I'm glad! Elizabeth Mansfield has a truth about her characters - so much truth, you want to invite them to tea! I read and re-read all of her books because it's like visiting old friends!
wow!!!
